Thirteen people have been arrested on charges related to prostitution on Thursday night, July 7 after a
Backpage.com sting in Ascension Parish.

Ascension Parish Sheriff’s Narcotics Detectives, along with Gonzales Police Department and the East
Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff’s Office began the undercover operation by reaching several potential
prostitutes and arranging a meeting time with them.

According to Chief Deputy Bobby Webre, some people advertise their services under the disguise of an
escort on this website. Undercover agents made contact with these people which resulted in their
arrests.

Ascension Parish Sheriff’s detectives arrested eight individuals and Gonzales Police arrested five as a
