Child abuse and soliciting
17. Internet-initiated sex crimes against minors involve deceit
and violence, and begin with adult strangers known as
internet predators communicating with children and
young teenagers over the Internet and sometimes then
meeting face to face.
Online predators use chat rooms, instant
messaging, Internet forums, social networking sites, cell
phones, and even video game consoles
Most online sex offenders are young adults who target
teens and seduce victims into sexual relationships. They
take time to develop the trust and confidence of teens, so
the teens see these relationships as romances or sexual
adventures.
How does it work? (I)
18. Online predators are a very important source of
child pornography.
A longitudinal study of 341 convicted child
molesters in America found that pornography's
use correlated significantly with their rate of
sexually re-offending. The study says that
watching child pornography can increase
recidivism risk for all groups of child molesters.

internet.
