WASHINGTON -- Nearly 170 victims of child sex trafficking, many of whom had never been reported missing, were rescued in the last week as part of an annual nationwide crackdown, the FBI said Monday.
Besides the 168 children rescued from the sex trade, 281 pimps were arrested during the same period on state and federal charges.
"These are not faraway kids in faraway lands," FBI Director James Comey said in announcing the annual enforcement push known as Operation Cross Country. Instead, he added, "These are America's children."
This is the eighth such week long-operation, which this year unfolded in 106 cities. The FBI says nearly 3,600 children have so far been recovered from the streets.
"There is no more meaningful work that the FBI participates in than rescuing children," Comey said.
He said one concerning trend is the increasing prevalence of children who are being prostituted online.

Poor kids hadn't even been reported missing.
The line about it being an "annual" crackdown ... Why cant they do it more often?

Of course they weren't reported missing. These kids are from out of the country. There were sold by families or given to traffickers to bring across the border.
What do you think this surge in child immigrants is all about? It's about sex trafficking and gang recruitment.

Typical of the illiterate dog bather but, even if they were from other countries, they are human beings.
Most were "undocumented Americans"...... Obamabot code for illegals. .
Sorry to say, but it happens in the USA to USA children, why not? Do you thing Americans are any different than any other nation of humans?

People who exploit kids like this should be shot, but first be slowly castrated with a rusty blade and left to bleed and be in pain for several hours.
