MD-HTTF Anti-Trafficking Operations Result in Raid, Arrests

in case some of you are not aware, we at the central maryland vineyard are involved in fighting against human trafficking, both around the world and in our own backyard.

we are heading the Maryland Human Trafficking Task Force's Public Awareness team, which has both a
MD-HTTF Facebook group and the MD-HTTF blog now

tomorrow, we are leading a public awareness community outreach in two central maryland neighborhoods where the MD-HTTF completed anti-trafficking operations this past week

details from the two-day MD-HTTF Operation:
  • operations by MD-HTTF this past thursday and friday, in crofton and glen burnie
  • operations resulted in the raid of at least one residence
  • operations resulted in the arrest of two traffickers
  • the victims services subcommittee did a great job, but we are not giving out any information on victims at-present
  • awareness point: Brown van – last seen in the Crofton area – that is suspected of being a mobile brothel; keep an eye out and report any suspicious activity to local police involving a brown van in the central Maryland and Baltimore areas
