Authorities have arrested 17 people in connection to a six-day undercover child predator sting. Central Florida authorities have determined that among the 17, two of those charged are employees of Disney and one was a registered nurse.
Polk County Sheriff’s Office launched "Operation Child Protector" to target those using the internet to prey on children.
“These are nasty, nasty people,” Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd said during a news conference. “We can’t even use the words that they used. We obviously can’t show the pictures and video clips that they sent to what they thought were 13-year-old little girls and little boys.”
The Disney World employees included Savannah Lawrence, 29, and Jonathan McGrew, 34, who "wanted to engage in a threesome with who they believed was a 13-year-old girl and role play as step-parents and stepdaughter in a shoplifting scenario, the television station reported."
“(Jonathan) said to the child, ‘We want to enjoy this opportunity, we don’t want to rush. Even at the conclusion maybe we can cuddle a little bit,’” Judd told reporters. “Are you kidding me? That’s how you talk to 13-year-old children?”
In all, the suspects were charged with 49 felonies and two misdemeanors.
