- Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd is expected to release details about an undercover investigation focused on sex crimes during a news conference Friday morning, according to a news release.
The agency says the sheriff will discuss the arrests of 160 people, including school teachers, a Disney employee, a state corrections officer and a deputy police chief from Georgia at 10:30 a.m at the Sheriff's Operation Center in Winter Haven.
"The online prostitution industry enables traffickers and allows for the continued victimization of those who are being trafficked," Judd said in a statement.
He continued, "Our goal is to identify victims, offer them help, and arrest those who are fueling the exploitation of human beings (Johns) and those profiting from the exploitation of human beings. Prostitution is not a victimless crime - it results in exploitation, disease, dysfunction, drug and alcohol addiction, violence, and broken families."

This dude is freaking awesome! I wish when I was in Law Enforcement I worked for a man like this!! He’s straight up on point!
Yeah we need more leaders like this in country.🙏❤️
Sherif Judd, if you read this give me a job!! I’m 46, I retired in November 2021 with 21 years of law enforcement under my belt, I retired out as the chief of police in my dept. I am also a United States Army combat vet that served two deployments in Afghanistan as a 19D assigned to the 101st Airborne Div, 4th BCT, I will relocate today to work for a man that carry’s his balks in a wheel barrel!!!!
@@713charlieb. I'm just reading this now and wondering were you offered a job, 💜💜
Well done Sheriff Judd and everyone involved in this operation. Total respect.
If any of those officers there were overseas veterans , they were with more prostitutes probably underage than any one of those arrested.
I wish we had many many more like him. Sheriff Judd I mean
You better...he's in the Oath
i wish the man was over here in Australia doing same job excellent work by him and of course his staff
Thank you to Sheriff Grady Judd and his team for keeping Florida safe from these monsters and predators.
This Sheriff & his team do amazing work. They tirelessly do everything to help protect children, every time I see him pop on YT.
Why aren’t the attorneys and judges that let these criminals out, charged with accessory to crimes they commit when let them off🤔
Agreed 💯
True.
@@KittyDillion this should not be for repeat offenders, and hardcore crimes committed. Stupid laws. They are obviously outdated, and useless now. Our cities are 🗑️ dumps, being ran by rats that love rolling in it.
Oh there's SO MUCH MORE to consider about this County Sheriff!...
If you are a “minority” you get innocent till proven guilty. But if you are a white law abiding citizen, it’s guilty till proven innocent
Thank you for working on fixing the root issue (rescuing these ladies and jailing the Johns) rather than merely addressing the symptom (the prostitution)!
Arresting the prostitutes would be solving the root issue.
That isn't the root issue. The root issue would be arresting the actual traffickers.
Actually, it takes both
It’s like jailing customers for buying something illegal but not punishing the business selling the illegal stuff…… That’s toxic femininity
Thank you for being a great help to the sex trafficking and human trafficking operation, because I was a sex trafficked girl to 39 years of age. Now, I am 51 years old.
I have so many questions for you, but I don't want for you to revisit that ugliness. I am so glad you're free of that nightmare.
I hope the men in your life now can show you unconditional love and make you feel safe. I'm so disgusted that this happened to you.
Your so strong for living through that !!I know your story is extraordinary,as some one who lived through sexual trauma and abuse my heart is with you!❤
Happy Thanksgiving to a strong survivor. May each day be brighter for you.
Grady epitomizes leadership, real leadership! Florida is lucky to have this hero.
Sheriff Judd is THE GREATEST! 💙
Job well done!!! I was a child of this same thing by my own biological father and he died in prison after many years on the run. I’ll be 50 in December and still deal with PTSD from all this and I was 12 when I went into the system. Praise the Lord for all of you. May the protection and guidance of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.
Bless you glad you survived. Can’t imagine.🙏❤️
I'm praying for you
Praise the Lord for you!! I believe we survived to help others. I've spent my freedom in serving. It was the only way could dissolve my ptsd
@@14bellas
I agree
It's the best for other victims.
If you yourself have been a victim it's the best help for other victims.
The little ones that are victims could really be helped by other older victims..
Victims need to know & be taught unconditional love, and how Blessed we are by our Heavenly Father.
I'm not a praying man, but I'll be your friend any day. You survived a hell that we can only speculate despite all the stories and evidence, and it breaks my heart.
God bless u all. This was always my biggest fear as a woman with two daughters. Thank you to everyone that worked with Mr.Judd
the man talks sense. this is what law and order should be about. keeping violent criminals behind bars not letting them out.
Anybody can say that.
Saying is one thing and doing what you say is another
I must say Sheriff Judd and the Pole County investigators, LE, has got to be the most efficient and dedicated enforcement to remove these criminals off the streets and bring our missing home. We here in California give you a big thank you and pray all LE in the US take heed and lets get these guys.
It's actually Polk county. Not sure if spell check messed it up, or you misheard, but thought I would clarify.
It's Polk...lady
We need a man like him in Los Angeles 😭
We need people like him, and his team, in every county. We could clean up this 🗑️ everywhere.
The press conferences would be 20 hours long
We need him in the White House.
I pray the social services provided are as spectacular as Grady Judd's efforts and all those who work to support these operations BLESS YOU
Agree
Chief Grady Judd, where does one find enough words to express your incredible, meticulous and amazing approach, which paints a picture of simply a genius in action , you are truly one of a kind, your empathy, understanding & absolute caring attitude touches every single sphere of life , you are a wonderful human being with endless inner knowledge of the essence of life .
I have no doubt that every normal person can only think of you as being so special, intelligent, wise and filled with inner compassion for law and order ,especially compassion for the victims of the terrible violence in which they live their lives , can we try photo copy you sheriff ? Perhaps you have a twin somewhere whom we could copy.
Your never ending wisdom of the human race is untouchable
I solute you sheriff
Just amazing
Thank you kindly
Ian Bank
Why was the cop allowed to resign? He should have been fired, stripped of all pensions, and barred from all law enforcement activities. Then arrested NO BOND. Decades in jail sounds right.
The families have done nothing wrong and they need to live.
LOVE THIS SHERIFF WISH THEY ALL HAD HIS PASSION FOR JUSTICE FOR EVERYONE
Sooo proud of Grady!! The lady behind him looks very proud as well!! 👏👏 great job!!
I think the lady looking so proud was once a victim herself, and works with the sex crime unit.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
If every county had a sheriff like this our country would be a lot better off!
Sheriff Grady
I live in Hillsborough county BUT yoy make me want to move to Lakeland. You
are one of the treasures of Florida.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE TO OUR STATE
Love this sheriff and his deputies. Thank you for your service.
If Grady Judd is holding a picture of you up to a camera, its a bad day for you.
Thanks you all for all you do for country.
Much appreciated. Hard work.🙏❤️
Even teachers ,WTH?
Happens more often than people would think. The "To Catch a Predator" series on NBC caught teachers in every single sting operation.
You got jail practice in the morning😂😂😂had me hollering 🗣🗣🗣🗣
Every town USA needs this year thank you for all your hard work I pray for all of those that are involved in human trafficking that they see there are other options. God bless y’all and keep the violent bad guys in jail
Porn star also being human trafficking too but you don't see them going after them? Why? Because they're getting taxes off them
I wish we had a sheriff like Grady Judd here.
Vote in a good sheriff.
Human trafficking is a big problem but two consenting adults who are privately seeing each other behind closed doors, not acting
under coercion or for purposes felonious crime should be left alone. I have not seen any evidence of coercion or attempts to comit a felonious crime. The Leo’s need to crack down on the true criminals which are the actual traffickers, them pimps have not been charged so far so how does national public humiliation stop trafficking?
Well if they are not charging or paying.... I guess it’s actually two consenting adults having sexual relations.
He need his own tv show
Yeah, local cable TV show.
Sheriff Judd, best damn sheriff in America!
If Sheriff Grady Judd reads these comments, I want to say this to you, Sheriff: I love your compassion for the victims of trafficking. I want to point out to you - that the men you arrest and condemn in this video are also mentally ill. Condemnation alone isn't enough. They are also in serious need of mental healthcare (counseling, etc.). Prevention is the best cure. The problems exposed in this video would be massively decreased in 10-20 years if EVERY kid in school, K-12, started every school day with a non-denominational 30-minute mindful meditation led by their teacher - combined with a 10-20-minute (longer for those who need it) counseling session with a mental healthcare professional 4 or 5 times a year (more for those who need it).
Stop it. They are ALL criminals.
@@durango8882 yes kiddie diddlers are all criminals
Thank you. You are all so very appreciated. 👋🌟💯👍
Human trafficking is when you transfer falsely arrested people from one jail to another.
This guy is a success story that imo is UNMATCHED!!
Sherriff Grady Judd is THE MAN!!!
Well done Sheriff Judd and team.
I love Sheriff Grady Judd. He needs to start investigating all these CORUPT Sheriff and Police offices throughout the land... Let’s start in TN and CA💯
We need a Grady Judd in every county accross the country.
Who in the hell is that weird looking lady standing next to Judd? She's freaking me out man!! 😕😕
I’ve wondered the same thing 😮
I like this man because he embarrasses everyone equally which includes the police. They don't do this sort of stuff where I come from and this tactic is effective in detering crime and repeat crimes.
How in the world can you say this stuff that Grady SAYS he does, DETERS other criminals? Have you seen the amount of "press conferences" Grady puts out...he's only a Sheriff of Polk county within Florida!!
@@annettezaleski "SAYS"?? what are you suggesting - that him and his team aren't actually making the arrests and progress he claims they are? Please explain I'd love to know what you meant.
And yes I do believe his tactic works to help decrease repeat crimes by individuals, most people would fear being publicly exposed like this and I would assume police officers in his town are familiar with this tactic and would rather play by the rules than end up a hot topic during these press conferences.
@@princessindigo what I'm saying is...yeah, they're just fear mongering and no...sheriff's depts do NOT do these types of cases...have you ever watched "Law and Order"? The FBI takes care of human or sex trafficking operations...they're just bragging on prostitutes they arrest...if any are real cases, at all!! Boy, Sheriff Grady has SOooooo MAAANY pedophiles living in his county! And for a VEEERY LOOONG time, too! And they just keep coming!! HOAX! also, he has NO ONE in the audience such as, oh idk THE PRESS...at these "press conferences"! Please!....
@@annettezaleski so what you're saying is all of the people he describes as suspects, criminals, drug dealers, pedophiles, bad police officers - those stories are all fabricated, made up, lies? You're saying that none of these people in the photos and stories of crimes are actual facts? Thats very interesting. I wonder what they would have to gain by showcasing all of these fake stories then.
@@princessindigo it's called fear mongering...they're trying to make us feel that they're very needed in order for US to be safe due to ALL these criminals out there! Plus Judd loves the camera anyways...soon we'll be hearing more on DeSantis, and how he's such a great leader with his restrictions on things taught in schools, etc...he's already starting! Just watch...
I love this guy! He makes me laugh, it’s not that the subject is funny in any way but the ridiculousness of it is quite funny when the cards come out!!
Wow! This happens pretty often in Florida. Good job Sheriff Grady!
No trafficking involved. Just prostitution. Which is legal in some parts of the US and many of the top countries.
Best Sheriff ever!
I love the Sheriff's humor. 😂
Judd Grady and his police officers are our favorite heroes. He could be a great USA president,but some others politicians don't want a president with high moral values,intelligent,quick and effective in his work. Love from Sweden 💛💙
5th guy (John) also thought he was engaging with an adult. Should be a misdemeanor this did not take place at school or with a student
Starting to really appreciate strong leaders such as Judd.
Great work!! Thanks for your service and sacrifice!!! Keep up the good work. God bless you all.
15:58 I’ve never shown up anywhere naked. That’s actually hilarious!! Imagine going somewhere and you’re just naked?! 😂😂
Polk County is a great place, keep up the work.
Have you seen how many sex addicts move to and live in his county? I would NEVER want to live there! Even though it's ALL Fake "press conferences" AND ALL FAKE CASES!! FBI takes care of sex trafficking dying ops
My high school teacher married a former student.. left his wife for her.
Same happened with a middle school teacher of mine and his teachers assistant once she turned of age…
Disgusting if you ask me.
Thank you so much for all your hard work in this matter.
Thank you sheriff grady for deleting their records and not criminalizing them.
We need you here in Milwaukee Cuz this is Really bad here & Chicago!!!!!!!! Sex traffic in is really f****** bad All over the World 🌎 😡😡😡😡
Thank you I love that you're so blunt
Thank you Sheriff Judd for recognizing the Corrections Officers.
Dang Sheriff, 160 people arrested? We are already way understaffed in the Corrections Department. I think you may just start making the COs mad with all these prisoners. Haha
Ask your union to use some or most of the money they get from all of you and use it for hires and training
What about violent crimes, homicides, burglaries, theft, rapes, domestic violence, poverty, hunger, homelessness, unemployment, suicides, hate crime, racialism, extortion, perjury, mobbing, abuse of power and more....?
The sheriff sure does love the camera.. I’ll Bet he asks people if they want his autograph when he’s around his county
You're right
“How long is this going to take? I got track practice in the morning.”
Judd: No, you got jail practice
Absolute savage 😂
I love Sherrif Judd he's awesome 👌 👏 !!!!I don't even live in that state but he seems to be serious about his job! I wana say thank you I appreciate it! That you are constantly taking the scumsucking criminals off your streets I think your dedication is wonderful I wish we could have more like you Sir Thank you an all your officers for making a difference!!!!!!!
If you go to Polk county to commit crime, expect to be arrested. Wow, what a concept. This Florida sheriff and Governor Desantis are examples of how to govern. Leave law abiding citizens alone. Punish criminals. Protect victims.
Did someone count how many times the word prostitute was used?
How are you helping these people ? You arrest them and put them in jail.
Not only that, he's not honest in his press conferences. They arrested an author who wrote a book about child sexual abuse,and who's a survival as well, they had a dispute about what he was allowed to have for his work, during the press conference, Grady never once mentioned the guy was a writer and told the public he was a child p*rnographer when he isn't. The guy has been fighting this for over 2 years and his first amendment defense was just denied by the judge, because Polk county knows the guy was right during the interrogation,so now they are forcing him into a conviction. Not such a forgiving system as Grady makes it out to be. The guy has no criminal record and not a violent guy at all. His cousin is a good friend of mine.
@@adamtorres833 They only care about themselves. It's a propaganda show.
@@victoriavicky6980 exactly
He has my vote for President!
I would have been disappointed if there wasn’t a Disney employee!
We need this Sheriff here in Los Angeles!
God bless you!
Thank you for arresting the deputy chief and showing what deputies are doing when they are in trainings away from home. 😎
Even the cop in the back can’t keep a straight face 😂
The officer standing behind Grady is having a super-hard time not cracking up. Florida is going to the dogs, obviously. 40 years ago, these things would have been unheard of in Florida.
Thank you Grady!
It will be AMAZING is Sheriff Judd can work a few stings directly in Disney. Probably would need to build a new prison just for such sting.
What a joke.
EVERY TOWN NEEDS A SHERIFF LIKE GRADY JUDD !
Why make a big deal about victimless crimes.
Hey Sherriff Judd- would it be of any value to check the public records as to what political party each of these upstanding good citizens is registered to?
Sheriff Judd doesn’t play! Whatever he updates on you can see his passion and commitment! Wish we had him.
Awesome work sheriff!!!
Please come to bandera tx..people are getting murdered here
Prostitutes often come from Godless, broken, homes, abused and neglected and often a parent is involved in crime-then they are thrown into the streets and can't afford to get out, being already vulnerable open to brainwashing of traffickers. If you come from a good home you are blessed and can't imagine the horrors these people live. It would be nice if the community would open up victim centers to take in these women and clean them up on a long term basis rather than taking advantage of them. This man of God has immense compassion and treats these women victims with dignity God bless you, heaven has a seat for you. Everyone can change their lives if given the chance.
There are also college student prostitutes who need money for tuition and living expense.
I hate that they’re allowed to resign, why is that?
Thank you all wonderful people with such compassion for trafficked victims! I pray God bless and protect your work. I'm so thankful for all of you.
We need more men like the Sheriff in this country.
We need so many more dedicated offerers like him! What's wrong with this country so sick and sad
Figure out who’s Sheriff Judd’s favorite person in that room.. lol
We need police chiefs like Sheriff Judd in the UK
Please let me get out of this country.
We need Judd everywhere to help because he does a great work
Why does this sheriff talk about ongoing cases in public, ? so strange that he would do that.
And the fact he purposely leaves out information that would tell a different story. It's crazy how prosecutors and judges let him do this. Someone needs to investigate Polk county
I love how the text from an unknown person who was warning the Prostitute about how dangerous it was to commit a crime in Polk County.
Sarasota did a press conference on a deceased racoon story.
You can't make the stuff up.
If Albuquerque, New Mexico had a Sheriff Grady I would sleep better at night. 😃❤️
8th guy John agrees to a private encounter with an adult woman. Who cares where he works? He wasn’t doing this at work. Misdemeanor.
Showing the cops MUGSHOT and police photo- 👏🏽
Judd's press release says, "Prostitution results in broken families." This is coming from the monster who has broken thousands of families. Every time his thugs prepare to deploy, they should think about, "How many families will I break today?" These thugs ought to be forced to face the screaming kids whose lives they've just devastated. These people are sick.
33:25 Come here on vacations, you will come back on probation. 😎
Love Grady Judd . Wish he and Tom Harmon were on the border . There would never be invaders of our country .
Hopefully the courts will charge these pigs , not a slap on the wrist .
