Seven men from the Orlando area are the latest to be snared in a Polk County sex sting.
One of the 11 led away in handcuffs is 37 year old Michael Tyburski (photo left) of Apopka.
"I gotta take the consequences. I just gotta worry about what happens to the family."
Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd says Tyburski and the others were arrested and charged with soliciting sex over the internet from what they thought was a teenage girl.
"And their cause is simply, grooming very young children so they can engage them in sex."
"Operation Paladin" as it's called is the fourth led by Sheriff Judd's department in recent months. He expects the enforcement will continue. Suspect Tyburski says he has a lot of explaining to do and expects his wife will begin divorce proceedings.
During the operation, undercover detectives used chat rooms and instant messaging programs to direct suspects to the location in Polk County.
