Child Porn & Trafficking Attorneys

The proliferation of child pornography, revenge porn, internet luring by predators, and other internet sex crimes grows with each passing year. Likewise, human trafficking is one of the fastest growing criminal industries in the world. Tragically, these crimes often revolve around those most vulnerable to exploitation: children.

Sexual predators use the internet (including social media and chat rooms) to target and lure minors and other vulnerable persons for abuse and exploitation.  Adult predators often pose as a child, befriending and gaining the child’s trust until they can trick the child into sending nude pictures of themselves, arranging illicit meetings, underage sex solicitation, or downloading, uploading, and sharing pornographic images of minors.

Children are not the only ones at risk: internet sex crimes involve the exploitation of young people and adults, as well.  With the rise of “revenge porn” and other intimate violations of privacy, adults can be vulnerable to abuse and manipulation by criminals seeking to injure, exploit, or extort others for their own personal gain.

Some internet crimes overlap with human trafficking enterprises. Human trafficking involves using force, coercion or committing fraud to sexually exploit a child or an unwilling adult.

Commercial sexual exploitation of children ranges from child prostitution, child pornography, child sex tourism, and other forms of transactional sex where a child engages in sexual activities to have his or her basic needs met (like food, shelter, or access to education).

Sex trafficking of children happens both inside and outside of the United States. Trafficking can occur in homes where child sex abuse is unchallenged and goes unreported because adults in the home depend on the perpetrator for their livelihood.

Sex trafficking and internet sex crimes are violations of criminal and civil laws. If you or someone you love has been targeted by sexual predators, contact the office of Crew Janci LLP in order to obtain experienced legal support.
