Twelve people were arrested as part of a two-week child predator investigation in Polk County, the sheriff’s office said Friday.
Sheriff Grady Judd detailed their arrests and the resulting 49 felonies during a news conference at 2 p.m.
The sheriff’s office, with participation by the Auburndale and Winter Haven police departments, in a news release, stated four people traveled to an undercover location to have sex with who they thought were girls aged 13-15. Detectives posed as children on social media, apps, and online dating sites, the agency said.
