88 children removed from Iowa Bible study camp in human trafficking sting

Iowa deputies extracted nearly 90 children from a Bible study camp last week and placed them in protective custody in response to reports of child abuse and endangerment, a state sheriff's office announced Monday.

Victor Bawi, the son of a minister at the church, said that no camp leaders have been arrested thus far. The family that runs the program denied allegations of child abuse or endangerment, though police are continuing an investigation into human trafficking.
