TAMPA Hillsborough deputies have arrested more than 70 people in a monthlong undercover prostitution sting, Sheriff Chad Chronister announced Monday.

In "Operation Interception," which ran from Dec. 7 to Jan. 9, undercover detectives posted online ads and female detectives posed as prostitutes on the street, resulting the arrest of 71 men who agreed to pay for sex, Chronister said at a news conference. The men face charges of soliciting another to commit prostitution or entering / remaining in a place for prostitution.

Chronister said the goal of the operations and others like it is to reduce the demand for prostitution as a tactic to fight human trafficking, especially in the coming weeks ahead of Super Bowl 55. Officials say they expect an influx of human traffickers into the area to try to capitalize on the crowds in town for the game set for Feb. 7.

"Our goal is to intercept those involved in sexual exploitation before they're able to take advantage of the vulnerable individuals in our community and ultimately, hopefully, deter others," Chronister said, noting Monday is National Human Trafficking Awareness Day.

He added later: "We know from past experience with major sporting events there will be some who travel for the exclusive purpose of taking advantage of women and children. ".

The men arrested range in age from 20 to 62. Among them was Ronnie Johnson III, a Hillsborough County firefighter assigned to Station 7 in Brandon, according to the Sheriff's Office. Johnson was arrested on Dec. 7, the first day of the operation, on a charge of soliciting another to commit prostitution and was released from the county jail later the same day after posting $500, records show.

Johnson was hired as a Hillsborough County firefighter on July 13. He submitted his resignation from his position as a firefighter following his arrest, and is no longer employed with Hillsborough County.

Chronister said the demand for prostitutes remains high in Tampa, which he said is an incentive for human traffickers to exploit people into sex work.

"It all comes back to the demand, it all comes back to the demand and that's why our operations are focused on eradicating the demand," he said.

Eight people were arrested on human trafficking charges in Hillsborough County last year and six in 2019, according to the Sheriff's Office.

Chronister said there are signs the stings are having an impact. As evidence, the Sheriff's Office released a screengrab of a message exchange between an undercover detective and a would-be john who decided not to meet.

"Trying to stay away from getting stung. And winding up on a poster while sheriff cronester sic explains to the media LOL," the man wrote in the message.

Along with enforcement operations, Chronister said, officials are also working on a prevention campaign.

There are ways to detect if online ads are posted by US police. A person experienced in responding to these ads will know. If you have spoken to prostitutes for many years you can tell when you are talking to a pretend pro.

I used to pick up street walkers decades ago; it is more tricky to detect these as you need to talk to them first and they will nab you even if you don't talk money. My advice would be to surreptitiously record the conversation as when you realize from the conversation that she is not a pro and attempt to walk away before soliciting her you will be arrested. Use the recording in your defense.

I'm a Tijuana newbie and have a question of how it works at HK. I was there in the afternoon when it was quiet, I was looking to just sit in a booth, drink, and partake in the sights. But then a girl decided to invite her self in. Anyways, what's the equitte to get rid of a girl or swap her with someone more my taste?

I ended up getting up from the booth and tipping her a $20 to get away from her, but what's your strategy to shoo away girls you're not interested in?

Thanks.

[Dogers69]

Nothing comes close to HK. Hk is the best for, value, service, location, open 24 hours a day, Hotel and then the girls. I can not wait for HK to open up fully. Guys say there are better destinations for short term trips, know way Hk is much better then all these destinations and Colombia is definitely not cheaper short term, maybe long term depending on your tastes.

NYC, Manhattan used to feel like zona norte many years ago. It was like 2 bucks to start grabbing these woman in these booths where the window would open for like 50 cents. You could see girls bending over for guys eating them out. Then you had all the strip clubs, once Giuliani shut down almost everything it still had excitement as Craigslist was big, and nyc has or had the most woman of any city I know of. Even up to 2 years ago flushing nyc was like a warped version of zona norte. It had an alley, but the woman were 30 years older than zona alley, but in better shape physically. It had massage body scrub sex offices 2 or 3 every block in all of flushing. You would always think your missing out on the best one so you keep going to see all even if you walk out without becoming a customer half the time. And it was not any more money than HK IS now. The sex was exactly like HK is now. Same amount time, some girls did more than others. Some girls looked better than. Others. Then The price seemed to go up a year and a half ago from like 100 total to 140 range. Which I would never pay so I never went back.

In Mexico, you won't find anything like Hong Kong or Adelitas, but lots of places have brothels. Most border cities like Mexicali, Juarez, Nogales, Matamoros, and Laredo have red light districts. Check out Boys Town in Nuevo Laredo for another area with hooker bars and short-time hotels. And of course any big city will have pickup bars, escort agencies, and independent working girls.

But for a place like Hong Kong, you have to go to Colombia, Brazil, or Costa Rica as MongerHunter says. Even then, I can't think of many places that actually compare to Hong Kong bar as far as number of available girls on a weekend night. Those other places have different charms.

Are there any other cities in Mexico (or central south America) that have stripclub / brothel like Hong Kong or Adelitas?

$30 is six blowjobs for SMD at cien pesos per so not an insignificant amount of money from that perspective.

Especially when its going straight into the pockets of ratero Mexican customs officials who are currently taking advantage and are stealing that $30. Ratero Agents representing Mexico that are stealing from legitimate border crossers that qualify for free seven day visits into Mexico to do things, like see more affordable dentists.

And don't underestimate value LubeMexiAnases.

Six covered blow jobs are, I guess around 9,000 pesos to Jinxx at his "1,500 pesos standard" Street Girl pricing. That's around the equivalent of $450 dollars or seven and a half airport to zona shleps that other mongers pay him $60 in part to avoid letting Pedro steal $30.

And that's for six covered blowjobs.

A little Mexican theft can grow exponentially.

Any thoughts on what's going to happen after Jan 26th when you need a negative Covid test to get back into the US? If this is enforced it will surely be chaos at the border with many people being denied entry. Or have some same day testing shops popped up?

As others said, it is only for air travel. Also, it is not PCR. The antigen test, which is faster and cheaper, is fine.

That's for air travel, I believe.

Verbatim from the CDC website (https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019...travelers.html):

"Does this Order apply to land border crossings?

No, the requirements of this Order only apply to air travel into the US. ".

This rule applies to air travel in to the United States, not to land border crossings.
