A statement released by Chief LJ Roscoe from the Goose Creek Police Department highlights a four-day effort to zero in on sexual predators. The sobering results warranted a cautious reminder to parents and guardians to be on point with watching their child's internet use. Roscoe reported that between Feb. 13 and Feb 17 of this year the GCPD hosted an operation directed towards internet crimes against children called Operation Cupid. The effort, Roscoe said was initiated by the Goose Creek Department with collaboration and assistance from agencies that included the South Carolina Attorney General's Office, FBI, United States Secret Service and Homeland Security.
