Over the Memorial Day Weekend, the Fannin County Sheriff’s Office and the Fannin County Criminal District Attorney’s Office with the assistance of Skull Games Solutions (www.skullgames.org) conducted a multi-day operation targeting buyers of commercial sex/prostitution.
During the course of the operation 10 individuals were arrested for Felony Solicitation of Prostitution.
Additionally, there were charges for Possession of Controlled Substance PG 1, Resisting Arrest and Theft of Material.
“Commercial sex crimes are the single largest contributor to human trafficking, often leading to assaults, and a variety of other offenses,” said the FCSO online. “These ten men showed up to exploit others. The men varied in occupation, financial status and age. Some even travelled from hours away to commit their crime. Instead of exploitation they were met by members of the Fannin County Sheriff’s Office waiting for them with handcuffs and a ride to jail. Exploitation of others in Fannin County will be dealt with swiftly and to the fullest extent of the law.”
The following were arrested and charged as listed.
Billy Joe Tucker of Sherman, Texas-Solicitation of Prostitution
Maxie Ray Mikle Jr of Wichita, Kansas-Solicitation of Prostitution
Anthony Ray Johnson of Sherman, Texas-Solicitation of Prostitution, Theft of Material
