The Department of Justice today announced the arrest of more than 2,300 suspected online child sex offenders during a three-month, nationwide, operation conducted by Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) task forces. The task forces identified 195 offenders who either produced child pornography or committed child sexual abuse, and 383 children who suffered recent, ongoing, or historical sexual abuse or production of child pornography.
The 61 ICAC task forces, located in all 50 states and comprised of more than 4,500 federal, state, local and tribal law enforcement agencies, led the coordinated operation known as “Broken Heart” during the months of March, April, and May 2018. During the course of the operation, the task forces investigated more than 25,200 complaints of technology-facilitated crimes against children and delivered more than 3,700 presentations on Internet safety to over 390,000 youth and adults.
"No child should ever have to endure sexual abuse," Attorney General Jeff Sessions said. "And yet, in recent years, certain forms of modern technology have facilitated the spread of child pornography and created greater incentives for its production. We at the Department of Justice are determined to strike back against these repugnant crimes. It is shocking and very sad that in this one operation, we have arrested more than 2,300 alleged child predators and investigated some 25,200 sexual abuse complaints. Any would-be criminal should be warned: this Department will remain relentless in hunting down those who victimize our children."
The operation targeted suspects who: (1) produce, distribute, receive and possess child pornography; (2) engage in online enticement of children for sexual purposes; (3) engage in the sex trafficking of children; and (4) travel across state lines or to foreign countries and sexually abuse children.
The ICAC Program is funded through the Department’s Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP). In 1998, OJJDP launched the ICAC Task Force Program to help federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies enhance their investigative responses to offenders who use the Internet, online communication systems or computer technology to exploit children. To date, ICAC Task Forces have reviewed more than 775,000 complaints of child exploitation, which resulted in the arrest of more than 83,000 individuals. In addition, since the ICAC program's inception, more than 629,400 law enforcement officers, prosecutors and other professionals have been trained on techniques to investigate and prosecute ICAC-related cases.

Back in the mid 90’s, in the early days of spam, i got an email from as account selling child porn. I immediately forwarded it to the FBI. I never heard back from them. I hope they caught the SOB who sent me the email.

What happened to me was milder: I was at my desk at a large company I worked for. I was looking for help for sharepoint and did a google search. One of the results seemed promising so I clicked on it. It took me to a very nasty XXX site. I started sweating. What I did was back out to the search page, take a page snapshot (showing the link as “purple text” because I clicked on it) and the description I clicked on (proof that it appeared to be legit). I then copied that image into an email to myself where I typed in the full situation that caused me to hit the site.
The idea was that if they didn’t bring it up, I was in no trouble, but if they DID, I had solid evidence that I was a victim of a mislabeled site.
When it comes to any kind of mindless bureaucracy that could mindlessly crush me, I avoid them at all costs.
This topic is beyond my ken, really; I just got a kick out of the huge hair (on the head) the few times I saw it.
It reminded me of Falcon Crest or Dallas.
Back in the mid 70’s A bunch of friends and I would go to The Price is Right in downtown seattle after work and have too many doubles at a buck a pop and then go to an X rated movie mostly to “crowd watch”. We only did it two or three times, but the legacy of that is, like you, I remember the “feel” of those movies and, to this day, will watch a poor quality “normal” movie from around that time and notice that it “feels like” I’m watching pr0n.
To be clear, I’m not proud of what we did and I’ve most definitely repented (I wasn’t even a Christian at the time), but the fallout is interesting.
Well, this apparently only took 3 months. There have been previous DoJ operations in this type of activity so it’s not really new.
Sessions has had 1 year and 4+ months to quell the sedition in his department and its subset the FIB. And to make the DoJ more transparent and cooperative with Congressional oversight. Haven’t seen much in that department.
Sessions is a statist and doesn’t have much interest in the protection of Personal Liberty.
Unless one is Trump-like with a long history of defending and pushing litigation and the deep pockets to afford same, it's healthier living to avoid the whole Legal System as much as possible.
I would bet it’s 50/50. No group is immune and that includes even religious.
Who picked up Hillary?
The swamp is deeper than you think.
I wouldn’t say immune but I’d be interested to see the real statistics.
Does it go all the way to China?
I’m not proud of it either!
But it obviously had an effect on me that I remember it to this day.
How many of the victims end up with a globalist?
The Deep State is everywhere including China.
