Solano County Prostitution Sting Results In 10 Arrests: Police

SOLANO COUNTY, CA -- Fairfield and Vacaville police arrested 10 people for prostitution-related offenses last weekend, authorities say.

Police detectives posing as customers on internet websites contacted alleged prostitutes who appeared to look under 18 years old, Fairfield police Detective Kathryn McCormick said.

After agreeing on a price for sex acts, the suspected prostitutes went to a Fairfield residence where they were taken into custody on Saturday, April 1. Efforts were made to determine if the women were victims of human trafficking, and a victims' advocate offered resources to the women, McCormick said.

The women between 18 and 30 were booked into Solano County Jail. They were from the cities of Folsom, Fairfield, Sacramento, San Francisco, Eureka, Oakland, Vacaville and Vallejo, according to police.
