The FBI has arrested more than 150 people across the US for sex trafficking. As part of the operation, it also found more than a hundred sexually-abused teenagers, as young as 12 years old, who are now being treated.
Most of the victims were young girls, though there were also three boys and three were transgender.
"When kids are treated as a commodity in seedy hotels and on dark roadsides, we must rescue them from their nightmare and severely punish those responsible for that horror," says FBI Director James Comey.
