FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) - Attorney General Greg Stumbo says eleven
men from three states were arrested during an Internet sex sting.
The Kentucky Bureau of Investigation worked with local police in
Campbell County, in northern Kentucky, and the Internet watchdog
group Perverted Justice, to conduct the operation from last
Thursday through Sunday. Suspects, all men, ranged in age from 24
to 59.
It was the second time the attorney general's office has worked
with the group during the past year. Stumbo says that in October,
seven men were arrested during a similar operation in Louisville,
and state prosecutors sent more than 30 to federal officials for
review.
Each of the suspects was charged with attempted unlawful
transaction with a minor.
