Cook County Sheriff’s Police regularly perform prostitution stings attempting to bust men in money-for-sex crimes. The county’s Public Morals Nuisance Violation Ordinance (Sec. 58-163.1) results in monetary citations, impounded vehicles, arrests, and damaged reputations. On Thursday night, officers arrested 21 men who responded to online prostitution ads in Northwest Cook County, reports NBC News on Friday, April 9, 2021.
Police set up meetings at a local hotel with men agreeing to meet an undercover officer who posed as a person selling sex online. Once the suspect agreed to pay for sex, Special Victims Unit officers entered the room and took offenders into custody.
