Becky Bruce reporting Investigators from every county along the Wasatch Front are cracking down on child pornography. They call it "Operation Spring Cleaning."
The six-month long sweep ended this week with at least three arrests and 17 search warrants. Ken Wallentine, chief of law enforcement for the Utah Attorney General's office, says it's been a challenge.
"Every time the bad guys figure out a different way to traffick in child pornography, or a new way to use the Internet or computers to entice kids, we've got to stay one step ahead of them," Wallentine said.
Wallentine says parents can definitely help by knowing what their children are doing online and talking to them about the dangers.
