An international sex trafficking ring operating in the United States, Canada, and Australia has been broken up, following recent arrests and indictments of six individuals for racketeering.
The indictments against the six individuals were unsealed by a federal court in Oregon on Jan. 16, according to a press release by the U.S. Department of Justice. The arrests were carried out by FBI Portland’s Child Exploitation Task Force in a multi-district operation on Jan. 15, with help from other law enforcement agencies.
