WASHINGTON -- Nearly 170 victims of child sex trafficking, many
of whom had never been reported missing, were rescued in the
last week as part of an annual nationwide crackdown, the FBI
said Monday.

Besides the 168 children rescued from the sex trade, 281 pimps
were arrested during the same period on state and federal
charges.

"These are not faraway kids in faraway lands," FBI Director
James Comey said in announcing the annual enforcement push known
as Operation Cross Country. Instead, he added, "These are
America's children."

This is the eighth such week long-operation, which this year
unfolded in 106 cities. The FBI says nearly 3,600 children have
so far been recovered from the streets.

"There is no more meaningful work that the FBI participates in
than rescuing children," Comey said.

He said one concerning trend is the increasing prevalence of
children who are being prostituted online.
