4 arrested and 1 wanted after luring children for sex, Central Florida deputies say

VOLUSIA COUNTY, Fla. - The Volusia County Sheriff's Office said that detectives arrested four men on charges of luring a child for sex.

They said that the arrests were part of an internet sting operation, called 'Operation Illicit Solicit.' It will be repeated in the future to catch more predators. Undercover chatters were deployed, posing as 14-year-old children. 33-year-old John Hil, 32-year-old Kenneth Mullis, 31-year-old Robert Hersey, and 35-year-old Vinyak Sawant were arrested.

They also identified a fifth suspect, 29-year-old Ronald Foley. He allegedly has chatted with undercover detectives in three consecutive sting operations. He has been arrested previously for child sex charges. He is also wanted on charges of violating his pre-trial release conditions, as a judge revoked his bond after he chatted up with an undercover detective during Operation Illicit Solicit.

The operation was said to be a joint effort between North Florida Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, the ICE-Brevard-Volusia Child Exploitation Task Force, Department of Homeland Security, Flagler County Sheriff’s Office, State Attorney’s Office and U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Florida.

Ghislaine Maxwell asks for accusers’ names and some ‘privacy’ in jail

August 12, 2020 2:50 pm

Ghislaine Maxwell, Jeffrey Epstein’s former girlfriend and alleged accomplice in sexually abusing girls over two and a half decades, says she isn’t getting enough privileges in jail.

Maxwell complained through her lawyers on Tuesday about the “uniquely onerous conditions” she is dealing with behind bars, which include round-the-clock surveillance and limits on her access to a computer. Her lawyers asked a judge to move the 58-year-old Brit into the general population at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn.

They also want to know the names of three women accusing her of sexual abuse, citing the dozens — if not hundreds — of alleged victims.

Maxwell is awaiting trial for allegedly helping Epstein groom and sexually abuse underage girls over a 25-year period, often on his own so-called “pedophile island.”

“As a result of what occurred with Mr. Epstein, Ms. Maxwell is being treated worse than other similarly situated pretrial detainees, which significantly impacts her ability to prepare a defence and be ready for trial,” her lawyers wrote on Tuesday.

They also complained about round-the-clock monitoring of Maxwell — a measure that was in place but failed to stop Epstein’s death last year.

“These prison guards constantly observe Ms. Maxwell and take notes on her every activity, including her phone conversations with defence counsel,” they said. “Until recently, Ms. Maxwell was subjected to suicide watch protocols, including being woken up every few hours during the night and being forced to wear special clothing.”

Maxwell’s lawyers say she has never been suicidal.
