Authorities in Palm Beach County, Florida, have apprehended two illegal immigrants in connection with the sex trafficking of a 15-year-old girl from New York City. The arrests were made following an anonymous tip received by detectives regarding a missing teen runaway believed to be a victim of a sex trafficking operation.
The Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office revealed during a news conference that investigators utilized commercial sex ads to locate the minor and initiate communication as a strategy to rescue her. The minor was found at a Motel 6 in Riviera Beach, where she disclosed that two individuals involved in the sex trafficking were in close proximity.
