In the process, police report that 48 vehicles were impounded, two firearms were located and seized along with a small quantity of narcotics. In the process, officers arrested a sergeant in the Oklahoma City Police Department who was booked on prostitution complaints into the Oklahoma County Jail. Littlejohn said that the criminal investigation will come first.
Then once that is complete, the department will look into whether the officer should be placed on administrative leave without pay and possibly eventual firing which is a call the Chief makes. But making the neighborhoods livable for the residents was not the only concern according to police. With the encouragement of the federal government, law enforcement agencies have shifted their approach on prostitution from arresting the prostitutes to focusing on the supply of money that prostitution rings are after.
That means arresting the Johns. At the same time, the women and children caught up in forced labor and even modern slavery are given assistance and a way to exit the life. Often, when John roundups occur, there are questions raised about whether police actions of placing female decoys on the street who look like possible prostitutes is a form of entrapment. They know what is considered entrapment and what is not, and are able to make the arrest based solely on what elements of the crime are and not on entrapment.
