Staffers on a Disney cruise ship docked in San Diego were among 28 people arrested by U.S. Customs and Border Protection as part of a child sexual exploitation material (CSEM) operation.

According to the federal agency, between April 23 and April 27 CBP boarded eight cruise ships as part of the investigation. (The agency did not specify that one was a Disney cruise — The California Post broke that news.) Law enforcement interviewed 26 suspected crew members from the Philippines, one suspected crew member from Portugal and one from Indonesia.
