Grande Prairie Crime Reduction Unit, General Investigation Section, Community Policing and General Duty members conducted a three-day enforcement operation this past week to address community concerns pertaining to sex activities in the downtown area. A total of 19 men ranging in age from 23 to 69 years old were charged with obtaining sexual services for consideration.
Many sex workers suffer from addiction, mental health issues, and were victimized prior to entering the sex trade and are exploited. Four of the males were also charged with additional offences including: possession of a controlled substance, possession of cocaine and methamphetamine for the purpose of trafficking, possession of a prohibited weapon, fail to comply, assault a police officer and resist arrest.
A total of 34 charges were laid during this enforcement initiative. Members of Grande Prairie RCMP are committed to identifying those who are causing the most harm in our community and to targeting their illegal activities. Grande Prairie RCMP are requesting the public to report suspicious persons, vehicles, and activities in their neighbourhoods. Sign in. Log into your account. Forgot your password? Password recovery.
