New York City police took action against sex trafficking on Thursday, targeting six establishments allegedly engaged in prostitution in Queens. Prostitution is against the law in New York.
NYPD officers were seen on video cracking down on one establishment at 95th Street and Roosevelt Avenue in Queens, with NYC Mayor Eric Adams leading the way.
"I was proud to join @NYPD115Pct tonight on an important quality of life enforcement operation to shut down six establishments that were breaking the law and perpetuating prostitution," Adams said in a post on X.
Adams spoke to reporters after the raid and said the conditions he saw inside were "inhumane."
He said the number of single beds inside made it clear that sex trafficking was taking place, which was bringing down the quality of life in the community.
"Sex trafficking is real, and these horrid conditions just makes it clear why the New York City Police Department — we’re not just gonna sit idly by and pretend that it does not happen," Adams said. "This is not just some fast-food restaurant."
Adams gave credit to Councilman Francisco Moya, who represents the community on the City Council.
NYPD Chief John Chell also thanked Moya for "pushing the buttons and getting this going," as sex trafficking has been going on for years in the community.
"For this community, this is what they want to see. The councilman represents this community," Chell said. "Sex trafficking is terrible. The city’s not going to tolerate it."
The chief also said the department had plans to hit other locations, vowing not to stop until it was under control.

I want to know how many of the girls could only say “no habla ingles”.
Would be as equally, if not more, productive, knocking on the several doors of Greenwich Village communists, “liberals,” and eco-nuts.
only a naive person believes any of this
Like Bongino says, “The most dangerous place in NYC is between Adams and a TV camera.”
What became of the democrat mantra:
“It’s just about sex”?
That’s next. Mark my words.
Could be making room for those who can only say “no habla ingles”.
Adam’s campaign to legalize and tax prostitution in NYC has begun.
Ask Curtis Sliwa.Adams loves his night clubs and prostitutes.
Somebody’s not paying enough protection money...
Are they arresting people or just knocking down the doors?
Prostitution is against the law in New York.

Really?
I would never known this!
Since when did NYS legalize brothels?!
They had best be careful they don’t pick up some White House staff. How does the big guy get his 10%?
Goodbye to Rosie, the Queen of Corona
Seein’ me and Julio down by the schoolyard
Agreed, For communists, like Adams, sex trafficking is fine if the gov’t gets a cut of the revenue.
Few realize how really dirty Adams is,except for fellow crooks like Joe Biden,and his surrogates at the White Hut, Susan Rice, Barrack Hussein Obama.
😆😂🤣
Gotta force them to pay into the syndicate.
Illegal Alien Venezuelan “girls”?
