Ten men were arrested and charged with soliciting sex from a child online and other sex-related crimes, the Osceola County Sheriff's Office stated in a press release.

  • Osceola County sheriff warns parents to monitor their kids' computer activities

Multiple law enforcement agencies, many from Orlando and Central Florida, were led by the Osceola County Sheriff's Office to participate in the operation where undercover detectives posed as juveniles to talk to people in internet chat rooms and instant-messaging programs.

The suspects traveled to a location in Osceola County with the purpose of having sex with a child, deputies said.

"These predators stalk the cyber community looking for children to victimize," Sheriff Bob Hansell said. "This operation should also be a warning to all parents to monitor and be involved with their child's computer activities."

All of the suspects were booked into the Osceola County Jail. The suspects, and their charges, are as follows:
