Dallas Police arrested more than two dozen men accused of soliciting prostitution as part of a targeted enforcement this week.
“We’re being proactive,” Kristin Lowman with DPD said. “We’ve listened to the community, to business owners, that are being affected by this type of crime.” The Dallas Police Department Special Investigation Division worked in an area near Walnut Hill Ln just east of Interstate 35, making 30 arrestsIt comes after a similar enforcement three weeks earlier that netted another 30 arrests, along with four handguns, two vehicles, and $70,000.“The perpetrators of these crimes are not the women and girls who have been sold; it is those who are selling and those who are buying.
Langbein adds the most recent operations are informed about targeting the men seeking sex, and not who advocates say are the women trafficked into sex work through force, fraud, and coercion, including many who are under the age of 18.“It is not going to be accepted within our city,” Lowman said.
