Consumer level demand provides the revenue stream for all prostitution and sex trafficking, and has therefore been targeted by local law enforcement agencies as a strategy for prevention and response. To identify and apprehend local sex buyers driving the prostitution and sex trafficking markets, local and state law enforcement agencies have conducted reverse stings. For example, in March 2018, eight people were arrested in a prostitution sting in a multi-agency investigation. Officials with the Flagstaff and Prescott Valley police departments, along with the FBI, conducted a one-day undercover operation. Investigators focused on people paying to have sex with minors, under the age of 16. All of the arrests involved made arrangements for specific sex acts that would be conducted with minors in the sting. Undercover officers fielded over 100 calls and inquiries from suspects with a large number declining upon learning the age of the girls. The goal of the investigation was to abate local child prostitution and prostitution in general that is organized through the internet.
