Texarkana Texas Police made three arrests earlier this month from an undercover sting operation with the Special Investigations Unit. The undercover operation was focused on people that were seeking services from a prostitute.

Did you know that the Solicitation of a Prostitute is now a felony in Texas? The penalty was increased to a felony in 2021. This was increased in an effort to stop human trafficking.

An officer posed as a homeless person in an area that has shown prostitution activity and waited for potential "johns" to make contact with her. Over the course of the afternoon, three men who were driving through the neighborhood stopped to talk to the undercover officer in separate incidents. Uniformed officers came in after the "deal" was made.
