A human trafficking operation was conducted at a casino in Payson in August, according to the Arizona Attorney General’s Office.
On Aug. 21 and Aug. 22, in partnership with the Tonto Apache Nation Police Department, a human trafficking operation was executed at the Mazatzal Casino in Payson.
The AG’s office said the joint effort led to significant interventions, multiple arrests and the disruption of numerous attempts to sexually exploit minors.
“Protecting Arizona’s children is a top priority for my office,” Attorney General Kris Mayes said in a press release. “Thank you to our law enforcement partners for your exceptional service and unwavering commitment to protecting Arizona’s children.”
