More than a dozen men have been arrested after trying to solicit a minor for sex in Bloomington, Minnesota, police say.

According to Bloomington Police Chief Booker Hodges, officers started the three-day sting on Nov. 5. They used several methods to find people who were attempting to solicit a 17-year-old girl for sex.

In all, police arrested 16 men during the investigation, which Hodges called "Operation Creep."

Hodges said most of the men came from within the Twin Cities area.

One of the men, he said, is an employee for Immigration and Customs Enforcement, who could face federal charges. Hodges said the ICE employee works as an auditor.

"When he was arrested, he said, 'I'm ICE, boys,'" Hodges said during a press conference Tuesday. "Well, unfortunately for him, we locked him up."

It's not that long ago that BPD caught Republican State Senator (now former senator) Justin Eichorn in a similar sting.

5. ICE is dirty

Maybe these perverts will get a presidential pardon these days. GOP is apparently into it these days. After years of made up nonsense conspiracies about pizza and secret cabals during election years.
