Gwinnett County authorities arrested 23 men, including a member of the U.S. Air Force, connected to an underage sex sting, GBI officials said Monday.

Operation Spring Cleaning in Gwinnett which resulted in 23 child sex exploitation arrests. The men, officials said, pretended to be teenagers online to lure minors and have sex with them in exchange for money. Most of the men are from the metro Atlanta area, including 14 from Gwinnett, and are believed to be between 19 and 48 years old, GBI spokeswoman Nelly Miles said.

So what's with what seems the magical number 23 and traffickers/pedos? Maybe just coincidence, but still

I think that must be the maximum number of suspects they can fit into the extra large police vans.

In all seriousness, that IS very odd. Are there follow-up stories? Or perhaps articles that go on to name all of the perps?

I'm not one to believe in numerology. If these reports all came from the same source, I'd be more inclined to dig deeper... but, why would so many local media outlets misreport this number 23?
