[Warning: Potentially Triggering Content] A 6-day human trafficking and child predator sting has led to the arrest of four Disney employees.
In a news conference on Wednesday, the Polk County Sheriff’s Office named the employees who were part of the 108 people arrested in Operation March Sadness 2 — the undercover operation targeting human traffickers, child predators, and prostitution. Xavier Jackson, 27, who worked as a lifeguard at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort, was arrested and charged with three counts of harmful material and one count of unlawful communication after allegedly communicating online and via text with an undercover detective posing as a 14-year-old girl.
He allegedly sent photos showing him “doing things that’s totally inappropriate” and bragged about working at the resort, Sheriff Grady Judd said.
