Operation Reclaim and Rebuild was declared a success by the District Attorney.
COUNTY OF SAN LUIS OBISPO — Between February 6 and February 12, District Attorney Dan Dow reported that Operation Reclaim and Rebuild in San Luis Obispo County was a success.
The Anti-Human Trafficking Task Force enforcement activity in San Luis Obispo County resulted in the arrest of nine persons during three days of enforcement operations, dismantling criminal trafficking networks.
The San Luis Obispo County Anti-Human Trafficking Task Force took part in the Los Angeles Regional Human Trafficking Task Force’s annual Operation Reclaim and Rebuild for the fourth year in a row. More than 80 federal, state, and local law enforcement organizations and task teams from around California took part in the statewide operation, which was aimed at combating human trafficking in Southern California.

Alex Alejandro Lopez (DOB: 10/24/1991)
Two people were detained on suspicion of pimping (California Penal Code 266h). These are active investigations that are still underway.
“The demand for prostitution generates a lucrative cash market for traffickers, who fill it with victims — many of whom are youngsters — even in our lovely town,” Dow said. “Our anti-human trafficking enforcement efforts in our community are meant to curb the demand for commercial sex, which leads to the exploitation of adolescents and adults every day.” A word of caution to anyone considering buying sex: please pause and realize that 1 million children are trafficked for sex each year, and you are contributing to the problem’s spread.”
Dow founded the San Luis Obispo County Anti-Human Trafficking Task Force immediately after his election in 2014. The Task Force’s operation was aimed at disrupting human trafficking networks on the Central Coast for the purpose of commercial sexual exploitation, identifying and assisting trafficking survivors, and reducing the demand for trafficking and exploitation of minors by identifying and prosecuting would-be purchasers.
The District Attorney’s Office expressed thanks for the efforts of each of its partner agencies in this year’s operation, including San Luis Obispo County Sheriff’s Office — Special Operations Unit & Special Victim’s Unit; DeliverFund; California Highway Patrol — Investigative Services Unit; Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) — Santa Maria Field Office; Ventura County Sheriff’s Office — Special Crimes Unit/Human Trafficking Team; San Luis Obispo County Probation Department; California Department of Justice — Fresno and Sacramento Sexual Predator/Human Trafficking Teams; San Luis Obispo Police Department; San Luis Obispo County District Attorney — Bureau of Investigations; and the San Luis Obispo County District Attorney — Christopher G. Money Victim Witness Assistance Center.
“Our collaboration with DeliverFund enabled the success of our tri-county operation, allowing us to achieve our goal of disrupting and dismantling trafficking operations while also rescuing victims from their traffickers,” Dow added. “Our neighborhood is safer today as a result of DeliverFund’s aid to our law enforcement team.” Three people were arrested for trying to acquire a 13-year-old kid for sexual exploitation, and six others were arrested for trafficking-related offences as a result of our local investigation.”
It’s vital to remember that a criminal complaint includes accusations that must be proved beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law. Until proved guilty, all defendants are deemed innocent.
