Los Angeles, CA — As bogus news pushing the divisive two-party paradigm about which puppet politician said something stupid this week fills the airwaves, very real news is taking place and conveniently getting glossed over. This very real news involves very real victims — who happen to be innocent children.
This week, a massive operation came to a head that was carried out across southern California which swept up 238 child predators and traffickers — including clergymen attempting to buy a 6-year-old boy.
Conducted by the Los Angeles Regional Internet Crimes against Children task force, “Operation Broken Heart III” targeted offenders wanted for the sexual exploitation of children, child prostitution, sex tourism and possessing and distributing child pornography, said Deputy Chief Matt Blake of the Los Angeles Police Department, as reported by the LA Times.
The mass arrests were not made up of reclusive pedophiles living in their mother’s basements either. In fact, much of the arrests involved high-profile figures throughout the community.
John Reynolds, acting special agent in charge for U.S. Department of Homeland Security Investigations said that among those arrested were entertainers, community leaders, white-collar professionals and clergy members.
“The incidence of child sexual exploitation has reached staggering proportions,” he said at a news conference.
These are not your typical Internet dwellers looking to prey on children online with images and pornography. These people are willing to cross the globe to purchase children for sex. What this exposes is the very real, elite, and extremely horrific market for children.
In May, Michael Quinn, 33, traveled from Australia to Los Angeles to complete a deal to buy a 6-year-old boy for sex, according to the U.S. attorney’s office in Los Angeles.
As the Times reports, undercover agents met Quinn on a social media networking site, where he had communicated that he wanted to “meet up with a dad who shares his young one,” according to prosecutors.
“Quinn explained to the undercover agent he was hoping to meet ‘other pervs’ in the U.S. and ultimately agreed to pay a human trafficker $250 to provide him with a young boy with whom he could engage in illicit sex,” according to the U.S. attorney’s office in Los Angeles.
Since its inception in 2014, Operation Broken Heart has increased resources to law enforcement agencies and task forces which have resulted in thousands of arrests. It is one of 61 programs nationwide funded through the U.S. Justice Department’s Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention.
Sadly, the funding for the prevention of child sex trafficking is but a drop in the bucket to the $51 billion spent annually fighting a futile and immoral drug war.
Perhaps, if the US cared more about saving children from exploitation and trafficking, and less about kidnapping, caging, and killing people over arbitrary substances they choose to put into their own bodies, this epidemic level of pedophilia could be curbed.
However, as the Free Thought Project has reported numerous times, many of these sickos hold positions of power within high levels of the government. They have an incentive to protect their operation and can do so using the many corrupt pedophiles within law enforcement as their minions.
In case after case, the Free Thought Project reports on horrifying instances of child sex rings that were allowed to go on for decades because politicians — including heads of states — policemen, clergy, and others were all in on the sick game.
In fact, as the new Netflix series, The Keepers set out to launch an investigation into a murder cold case it soon became much deeper because of the high-level pedophilia it revealed. The story exposed a concerted effort to conceal widespread rape and sexual abuse committed by Keough school chaplain and counselor Father Joseph Maskell, as well as other clergy, police, and a local gynecologist.
On multiple occasions, the Free Thought Project has reported interviews of former child sex trafficking victims who’ve all noted that they had nowhere to go as police and high-level politicians all took part in the abuse.
Hopefully, as the government’s war on drugs continues to crumble, people will wake up to the fact that rescuing a child from a rapist is far more important than catching some dude smoking a plant. Hopefully.

Perverted pedophiles are the lowest and disturbing and disgusting beyond words. They should be hung upside down by their thumbs or another appropriate organ.
That’s speaking from the same mind-set though….
I vote for draw and quarter.
Not only does this activity include the sexual degradation of these innocent victims it also includes the child ritual sacrifices being made by members that are connected to world governments, banking, media controllers, religious leaders and the military. Our government has been involved in trading children and adults for experimentation with extraterrestrials in exchange for technological advances. The tall white Reptilian Overlords run this planet as their own.
I read that 70% of Congress are Pedophiles. Now that’s disturbing. I suspected the Clintons and John Podesta all along, but it is a shock that the percentage is so high among Congressmen.
This story is a year old (check LA Times link).
Good catch.
If the war on drugs completely collapsed today it would do very little to stop the pedophilia that is occurring, so don’t hold your breath on that one.
The real problem is the perverse and corrupt people in power that protect their own and promote this sick activity because many of them engage in it.
It’s a crooked club and we ain’t in it. ( In some ways thank God )
How about some names, dates etc etc. Otherwise this piece is no different than the anonymous sources conveniently cited and used by the nat’l left wing media. It’s time to be naming names otherwise this is just another piece of FAKE NEWS.
These carnivorous ZNWO predators want a sex-pornography/drug/senseless violence-obssessed Luciferian world – where evil equals to good; and where Lucifer equals to God!
And this include the typical Luciferian MO to infiltrate religious institutions, through their Pedophile agents.
Now go for the real culprits such as the royal family of the UK.
These arrest took p;ace back in February and last year. This guy is just posting nonsense.
The date on the LA Times article is June 21, 2016.
One year ago !
Stop the cutting and pasting and F%#King read what you’re writing about.
Not good.
The newspapers in some places PRINT NAMES,ADDRESSES and CHARGES against criminals for all to see, WHY NOT HERE?
Completely ignored by MSM.
As someone who has followed these perverts including priests and their evil actions for years, I find this article a waste since the truth of the story should be in exposing everyone arrested and their names published – not just one man from Australia. This type of activity has been going on for years directly into the White House. This isn’t about sex, but power and control over others. Shoot them as they aren’t worth the paper to write about them on nor can they be “cured”. Breathing trash!
