Seminole County is a county of over400,000 residents, located within the Greater Orlando Metropolitan Area in Florida. Several cities within the county, such as Sanford and Melbourne, have conducted reverse stings. As in neighboring Orange County, prostitution has been a persistent problem in the area and generates complaints from residents, and sex trafficking cases have been investigated locally. To address these issues, the Seminole County Sheriff’s Office has conducted reverse stings to identify and apprehend sex buyers.
