On the same day that members of the Northeast Ohio Human Trafficking Task Force arrested 10 men on sex charges in North Olmsted, a Lorain County man whom they investigated back in 2021 was sentenced to life in prison, Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost announced earlier this month. 'Yesterday was a banner day for the task force,' Yost said. 'Their commitment to wiping out the scourge of human trafficking is making a difference in the lives of the victims and having a big impact on the region.' The May 11 arrests were part of a one-day operation held in conjunction with the North Olmsted Police Department, Westshore Enforcement Bureau and the Ohio Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force to identify those allegedly providing and purchasing commercial sex.
