Thus far believe only The Lake Worth Herald has reported on this. If there were other reports feel free to send them to me. My email address is in the right-hand column of this blog. Below are two excerpts from the Herald:
The Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office completed “Operation Street Sweeper II" on February 19. The Narcotics Unit of PBSO and District 14 collaborated on the operation.
According to an e-mail from District 14 Capt. Todd Baer, the operation netted 20 prostitutes, many on felony charges The operation snagged 42 people overall on 56 charges, most of which were for the sale of drugs.
According to the email, many of those arrested are career criminals and Baer said PBSO will be working with the State Attorney to ensure prosecution to the fullest extent of the law.
[and. . .]
Baer wrote, “This was a city-wide operation which should make a difference in the community."
