Two suspects are in custody in recent unrelated child sex trafficking cases in Yavapai County.

According to the Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office, on February 25th a citizen contacted YCSO and claimed a man had offered her a date in exchange for sex work, and asked if she would be willing to perform sex acts with his young son.

Detectives immediately began working to track down the suspect, and determined he lived in the Phoenix area. They contacted Phoenix Police, and the Department’s Human Exploitation and Trafficking officers arrested the man.

Then on February 29th, Human Trafficking Detectives with Yavapai County’s PANT Taskforce arrested a Prescott Valley man who had allegedly offered to pay for sex acts with a teenage girl.
