In April of what year? Do you know anything else about the arrests?
Per the OP's link and a google of it - 2011.

You can hear regular raids happening at many hotels here on scanner traffic feed - even the stuff just publicly available on Broadcastify, etc. much of the time.
It's a huge issue here and I know some in the DA's office who are heavily involved in the investigations and awareness campaigns being done here as a result.
The Oceanside raid was more public, but it's a regularly mentioned/addressed topic here in San Diego County, at least.
