A lot of them were probably Asian and ME immigrants. The Chinese are particularly bad at this and a lot of the ICE raids in NYC (and other big cities) were on houses where the Chinese kept young girls locked up for their “special clients.” African immigrants have also been heavily involved in this.
Latin Americans are sometimes classed as pedophiles because the age of consent in many LatAm countries is very low (14 or 15), simply because this was the tradition worldwide until about the end of the 19th century, and in fact there were US states that had that age until only a few decades ago (look up Jerry Lee Lewis). There are problems in Mexico with gang-run prostitution, but it still seems to be not very extended here.
If ICE raided places, these were clearly houses of prostitution run by immigrants, and the big players in underage prostitution are the Chinese, followed by Caribbean black gangs and Middle Easterners (who often buy a non-ME, usually minority [often filipina] juvenile to use as a slave, including sex for the master).
OK, thanks. I was just guessing, since as usual the reporter left out some of the basic details that used to be reported, before it became politically incorrect to discuss almost anything.
.....they didn't, they followed online trafficking of the materials and busted the individuals who were committing these attrocities and those who were recipients of the trash......
Most child pornography in this country is committed in typical neighborhood homes by friends of family, neighbors or by family on their own children........
It doesn't have to be a European or Mexican cartel working within the borders of this country.......
