Law enforcement officials arrested 48 people in connection with a month-long operation targeting suspected sex traffickers in National City and San Diego. We hear from a local expert on how sex trafficking impacts minors. Then, the city and county of San Diego will end COVID emergencies at the end of the month. How will this affect how we fight against the virus in the future? Next, more than $100 million is on the line for Wednesday’s Powerball lottery, but how much is the California lottery really helping public education? Finally, a conversation with Native American author N. Scott Momaday who will be Friday’s featured writer at this year’s Writers Symposium by the Sea at Point Loma Nazarene University.
