A Sting Operation is a type of covert procedure designed to catch a person engaging in criminal, illegal, or dishonest activity.
Stings generally involve the use of an undercover agent who will pose as a confidant, partner, or colleague to the target of the sting. The agent will employ the use of various types of technical and electronic equipment to aid in the operation and create objective evidence for the investigation. Stings are most commonly carried out by law enforcement agents, sometimes posing as an under-aged youth in a chat room to target sexual predators, or as a John to bring down a prostitution ring. But there are many other situations that could require a sting operation, and the network of investigators working with ICS is highly trained and experienced in carrying them out.
