27 Northeast Ohio men arrested in undercover online child predator operation

COLUMBUS, Ohio (WSYX/WTTE) — Twenty-seven men alleged to have engaged in sexual activity with underage children online were arrested in a four-day operation led by the Ohio Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force.

In a release, the Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Michael C. O’Malley said 27 individuals were arrested as part of “Operation Moving Target" that ran from Aug. 24 to Aug. 27.

Undercover officers posed as children online on popular social media apps. According to the prosecutor, the 27 defendants, ages 21 to 61-years-old, allegedly engaged in "sexually explicit online conversations" with the officers that they thought were children.

Northwest Woodsman: These perverts are not only vile, disgusting predators, they are incredibly stupid and out of control for falling for law enforcement sting operations. Do they not know that we are all under almost constant surveillance, both visually via cameras and electronically through communications monitoring. Your smartphone is constantly reporting your location and activities to either the tech companies, law enforcement, and NSA. Their ability to intrude in your lives is remarkable.
