On what macau what why did why did not i put out the. Clearly hopeful view but this year are all some friends that the us are still so but the soul feel hoping to do something to see. I think this is. Going to with a lot of that you know that. Were going to be conducting this investigation that both tell. Cornelius the riser is going to be Sergeant Munoz were going to have to interview the pennsylvania and once we determine that they are victims of Human Trafficking being or pandering then were going to attempt to locate and identify their their pimps. One of the vice squad officers has selected the on line profiles of the prostitutes that appear under. As of 2017 they are now considered as victims under California Law to help them get out of the game these undercover officers are going to trap them by posing as potential customers this is what were looking for a here she looks very. You can tell shes using social media that to me this kind of screams that. This has the potential to be a juvenile victim right here. The market for it is nothing that you would believe the. Police will be operating from this luxury hotel by l. A. X. 80000000. 00 travelers who pass through this area every year and the dozens of surrounding hotels are a godsend for pimps. A lot of the girls or lines girls that were prostitution. They know these hotels very well they know that most of the men that call them in this area are businessmen who are usually from out of town so a lot of times are undercover as well act as businessmen from out of town. 20 or so agents are now inside 2 adjoining rooms in this hotel. In. The search. For that room where they will be doing the undercover operation and then the undercover when they get a violation and then we take the female into custody they bring her back in here and they will do the interviews and. Undercover cop is already texting a girl who was potentially under age to gain her trust he is telling her about his evening kind of give her a story so that its credible that i was at a strip club and i wanted to. So now that i spoke spoke to her she says shes going to be out here in 20 minutes and hopefully we can get her to come out and then how much was the amount of hers that is said 300. 00 for an hour or for 50 for 2 hours. Ok for example for you get her. Raise for hotels are 2 or 3 times higher than the going rate on the street Police Officers have Police Cameras around the bedroom for the operation they can discreetly observe what is going on in the next room. So. They are doing a negotiation we can hear it and it helps us with our investigation later on down the line if we have to go to court theyre able the this is going to go to show that the officer did make an agreement with the girl a Police Officer on watch at the Hotel Entrance alerts the team of the young womans imminent arrival. Ok so. So this is going to be the way to get. Police officers bumped into was suspicious woman in the corridor or perhaps the prostitutes madam. The Police Officer who is posing as the customer comes out of the bedroom pretending to take a phone call. Youre. Like we man saw your stuff. For a counter and here are. The 1st yes oh you. Are here i didnt know but they dont. Know. The young woman is taken into the adjoining room where shes making out like this is her 1st arrest. And. Shes taken 200. 00 from the fake customer got it. The Police Officers now want to find out if she is working under a pimp 2. So like. I went to this. Trader i if you dont breathe youre going to pass off. Its impossible to know whether she. She is working for herself or for someone else despite her young appearance she is in fact to be very youthful and appearance but they verify shes 20. The police managed to arrest a 2nd prostitute later that evening but she is also of age. They got 2 girls tonight it was a good night they got to unfortunate in getting minors and then one girl was 20 and then a crow was 24. And theyre not being chopped if theyre doing it on their own. So they will get. Into the jail theyll get a citation and released and then theyll go off their own little way. Being charged with prostitution means these 2 girls risk a 1000. 00 fine and over 40 Hours Community service unfortunately the police havent managed to arrest any underage girls tonight but their efforts to save these young girls from a life of prostitution will soon be rewarded. Between tonight operations the hollywood vice squad are taking advantage of those rare moments of downtime to release some tension its early evening and surgery munozs day has already been pretty busy. He came in early to help out the detect this. Branch of a couple gay members who were actually responsible for shooting. The shootings throughout all the wood and some of the surrounding areas so we got them a custody so were here at 4 in the morning for you know were going to start right in the city they will go all night you know address some of the same issues should be a finite a 5 year long. Haul. For you usually long nights. Surgeon munoz will spend most of tonight patrolling the streets of these tollywood in search of underage prostitutes in his undercover car he will head down western avenue. Crushing koreatown with its local businesses and motels but also those more infamous hollywood streets that are ran by gang members surgeon munoz sometimes stumbles upon some rather unusual scenes during the night i think. Every night at around 10 pm the regular ritual of scantily clad prostitutes coming out onto the street begins to come out here and just plainly walk. Wester and you can see how quickly things just get more growth yeah theres theres about 56 Different Girls it within about a 4 block area. This soliciting is completely uninhibited for everyone to see so you can see them monitoring traffic waving cars blowing kisses at people obviously theyre dressed the way theyre dress or attire its part of that. And suddenly the surgeon notices a sex worker who appears very young. Spring everybody at. All so now shes here on the corner hes here right here because of the street we have enough on the caruthers in the area they kind of tried to get her attention to see if she decides to get into one of the cars. One of the plainclothes officers approaches her in his van after a short conversation the young woman agrees to get in. Session the dow. Earlier than one quest declined an hour. Shes trying to screen him and as we can see there why are they going to be driving away. Surgeon when no standards detail them the it calls in the surrounding area are waiting for the signal from undercover cops before intervening. Oks got the violation of a violation. The arrests take place at a gas station. The c. C. T. V. Cameras and lighting mean it is safer for both parties that. Once again the young woman doesnt have any idea on her. So these girls are often like to us about their identity no i. D. And their age even though shes saying shes 20 years old she and her parents is that of a june also. These arrests of under age looking girls continue well into the night. Because you get. Just typical friday night and you know hollywood at the state alley. More often than not these girls arent carrying id theyre taken to the station to verify their ages. In the parking lot one of the girls catches the attention of the officers and shes 5 months pregnant. At the precinct surgeon who knows recognizes the Young Pregnant girl this is the 3rd time shes been arrested. And left and then we go to. Dinner. Her last arrest was when she was 17 years old and she is now potentially in the but the Police Officers are sure to try to get her so now the last hour there to see if this was in charge of the children actually. She actually jumped out of the car ran out for ran away from d. C. Fs. But now shes shes probably in a dog fight that i let. Me be she was so. Desperately wants d to be. The she is the is the center ship magicians it all right. Very. Well that we said before we just need to get the right information out.
