We're Gonna Need More Child Rapist and Pedophile Hunters • OP News

In some of the most violent and notorious prisons in America, full of criminals, the pedophile is reviled among all. Human trafficking is a very lucrative business for criminal enterprises across the globe. People who choose to go pedophile hunting can find themselves in a dangerous world. The demand for children for these pedophiles is sadly a very real and significant problem.

Many convicted pedophiles find themselves at the business end of a shiv (an improvised sharp weapon) or routine beatings and assaults of various natures. Every society has subcultures or criminal elements that defy the morals and standards of the greater society. In America, adults seeking to conduct sexual acts upon children are considered the lowest of the low.

Unfortunately, pedophilia has long been around in America and different parts of the world. Certain cultures around the globe (such as in Africa) have practices that make young children the property of local chieftains for sexual purposes. The child sex trafficking trade runs rampant in other countries like Mexico, Colombia, Thailand, and Russia. While under deployment and tasked with winning hearts and minds, U.S. forces have sometimes found themselves at odds with supposed allies who partook in sexual assaults against minors of both genders.

Sadly, In America, there have been many sexual predators who cloaked themselves in positions of trust and power. Numerous investigations have uncovered no single mold for pedophiles; they come from all backgrounds, socioeconomic groups, races, religions, and ages.

Remember When Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg Wrote a Book Promoting the Legalization of Pedophilia?

The evening news highlights the scandals of teachers sleeping with their underage students, coaches with their athletes, and scoutmasters with their scouts. Investigative and independent news programs began looking deeper into the issue as incidents of adults exploiting minors started to bombard the American consciousness while others have even pretended the ongoing crisis doesn’t exist such as USA Today and The Atlantic.

Child Trafficking Online

For example, if a 45-year-old named “Martin” has a bunch of 10 to 14-year-olds as friends on an online gaming app catering to kids, this may be a big red flag, and perhaps someone will notice and alert authorities. Next, a hypothetical profile may appear on this chatroom or another platform associated with the online game. Martin may feel compelled to start an online correspondence because the cute and innocent profile picture draws him in.

Mild banter may ensue, followed by the exchange of innocent pictures and more racy pictures, ultimately leading to a phone call between Martin and the target of his online affections. This “target” will legitimately sound like a curious and trusting minor on the phone, and Martin’s intended victim will mention that her parents will be away the following week. Martin will then make travel plans to meet for sex with whom he believes to be an underage female.

Upon arrival at his supposed victim’s home, however, Martin is met by police officers in raid jackets and a cold pair of handcuffs. Authorities pat themselves on the back in the knowledge that a pedophile has been taken off the streets, but just as with the drug war, all involved know that Martin is only one of millions of others looking to prey upon young children.

A Dangerous Cat and Mouse Game

The sad fact is that sexual predators targeting children are but one slice of a much larger criminal pie. Some people trade child pornography—pictures, videos, and literature—with others across the globe. However, this segment does not necessarily include the sick individuals who actually take the photos and videos and engage with the children.

For every predator caught in a sting, countless others are consuming child porn. Criminals producing child porn, numerous web admins hosting it, and an almost endless number of websites and forums on the dark web for distribution purposes.

Regional and global sex traffickers also know there is a market for people wanting sex with children, and they are all too willing to supply them to pedophiles. Many of these minors are coaxed into running away from home. Some are abducted, or, in many cases, these underage victims are smuggled into America.

Pedophile Hunting on the Big Screen

The movie Taken wasn’t too far off the mark in terms of exposing that there are global sex trafficking rings. As it also happens, there are a number of people ready to stop them.

Unlike the war on drugs, hunting pedophiles is an endeavor that has multiple players. Mostly government-funded nonprofits to private-sector vigilante groups, each with various approaches to stopping predators.

Child Rescue Services

The HERO (Human Exploitation Rescue Operative) Child-Rescue Corps is a U.S.-government-backed program developed by the National Association to Protect Children in partnership with Homeland Security Investigations and the U.S. Special Operaten months of field training. Then, they are given a new mission—to hunt down pedophiles and online predators. When necessary, arrests are made with cooperating law enforcement agencies across the globe.

Bruce Ladebu founded the Children’s Rescue Initiative (CRI). They rescue, return, and restore children and adults caught in this horrible trade. To date, 2,300 victims have been rescued by the organization.

DeliverF u nd, founded and managed by former special operator and CIA special agent Nic McKinley, applies numerous investigative and tactical targeting techniques that McKinley learned in the service of his government and focuses those capabilities on identifying and stopping child sex traffickers. DeliverFund equips law enforcement with training and software to prevent sex trafficking operations.

Government Human Trafficking Agencies

The Anti-Human Trafficking Intelligence Initiative (ATII), founded by Aaron Kahler, uses open-source intelligence (OSINT), web intelligence (WEBINT), and advanced forensic cyber-investigative techniques to follow the money, cellphone pings, online images, and other digital breadcrumbs associated with human and child sex trafficking.

ATII, like some of the other organizations mentioned above, alerts law enforcement to suspicious online behavior. Often, banks, websites, online message boards, airlines, and ride-share companies are alerted by firms like ATII.

The Statistics

America is home to more than 42 million victims of child sexual assault

Child sex abuse and sex offenses, in general, don’t get reported to the relevant authorities. Adult retrospective studies from the Children’s Assessment Center, however, indicate that 1 in 4 women and 1 in 6 men suffered sexual abuse before turning 18, which translates into more than 42 million adult victims of child sexual abuse.

To add another layer of protection, you can perform criminal records checks on people search sites for anyone who has contact with your children. Alternatively, you can search the sex offender registry for child sex offenders and other criminals who might live in proximity to your family or near the schools your children attend.

Studies show 1.6% of all children between 12 and 17 have been sexually abused

According to the BJS, children who experience this type of abuse are known to develop low self-esteem, depression, a general feeling of worthlessness, and mistrust of adults. Child molesters statistics show they can become withdrawn and even suicidal if left untreated, and the trauma can affect them long into their adult life.

Boys who are sexually abused are five times more likely to cause teen pregnancy

The National Center for Victims of Crimes found that they are also three times as likely to have multiple sexual partners and twice as likely to have unprotected sex than their counterparts. Child sex abuse isn’t limited to contact, and there are other examples of non-contact abuse such as child pornography and voyeurism.

Between 80% and 90% of all pedophiles are male

Statistics on child predators show a massive gulf between the number of male and female perpetrators. Around 40% of offenders of children under the age of 12 are about the same age or adolescent, according to sex offenders stats.

Female pedophiles usually have a different set of motivating factors behind their abuse, and though they seem to target younger victims, they tend to be less concerned with their gender. More specific demographics of pedophiles are challenging to discern, given many of them appear as upstanding citizens and take great measures to avoid suspicion.

About 30% of all sexual abuse victims are assaulted by family members

Child molester statistics from Darkness to Light show that almost a third of all sexually abused children are victims of their own family members. For children under the age of six, 50% of the abusers are someone in the family, for victims aged 12 to 17 the percentage drops to 23%. Stats also point to no tangible link between homosexuality and pedophilia despite some assertions.

Girls are two to three times more likely to be molested than boys

In a review by Walden University of 55 studies over the last 50 years to gain a deeper understanding of child molestation statistics, researchers found that 25% of girls were victims compared to 8% of boys. The report also found the rate of abuse in boys to be significantly higher than exhibited in the CSA research citing the stigma attached to being a victim of molestation, underreporting of incidents, and unsubstantiated claims for the discrepancies in this data.

These issues are just as common for pedophilia in the USA. With more education and more accurate information, these abuses can be prevented not only in America but also across the globe.

Children with disabilities are 2.9 times more susceptible to sexual assault

Child predator statistics clearly show a trend toward the sexual abuse of disabled children. After a thorough meta-analysis of studies pertaining to the victimization of children with physical or mental disabilities by the Vera Institute of Justice, researchers concluded that they are almost three times more likely to be sexually abused.

In fact, children with mental and intellectual shortcomings are as much as 4.6 times more likely to be sexually abused than their peers with no disabilities.

Child sex offenders are four times more likely to be rearrested for a new sex crime

According to Stop Child Predators, Pedophilia statistics surrounding recidivism vary because of differing definitions, but child molesters typically have higher recidivism rates. Of the released child sex offenders who commit a new sex crime, as many as 40% did so in the first year following the release, and the majority of their victims were children aged 13 or younger.

Approximately 500,000 child predators are online every day

Children between the ages of 12 and 15 are the group most targeted by online predators’ — the FBI has found that they account for over 50% of the victims. Online predators statistics show that 89% of these interactions take place on the internet in chat rooms and private messaging.

While most pedophiles make efforts to mask their deviant behavior and present themselves as upstanding citizens, it’s worth running social media background checks on potential applicants if you’re an employer based in a child safety zone, work with children, or want to check how applicants behave in their private lives.

Social media profiles can give you a more in-depth look into someone’s personality, values, and preferences.

There are almost one million people on the US sex offenders registry

As of February 2023, there are over 786,000 people on the U.S. sex offenders registry.

This figure marks a 3% YoY increase and is the highest recorded since 2019. It also translates into 237 sex offenders per 100,000 residents.

A Reality Check

Estimating how many people are pedophiles is fraught with challenges although research indicates that the prevalence of pedophilic tendencies in the general population may range from 1% to 5%.

With a population of 340.1 million that means there are an estimated 3.4 – 17 million pedophiles in the United States alone.

To put this in to even more context, the American prison population is only 1.8 million, meaning there are at the very least, twice as many child predators in this nation as all other convicted criminals combined.

Considering the small budgets for government and/or private organizations whose sole purpose is to catch these kinds of people, the reality can be extremely daunting.

Even with increased public spending and donations, there just simply isn’t enough law enforcement to capture every single last one of these sickos. Hell, there probably isn’t even enough space to keep them all locked away from the general public.

Enter the gray and murky side of the pedophile-hunting business. With the success of “gotcha”-style shows, online vigilantes have emerged who seek to catch predators similarly. In many cases, natural predators have been exposed, including a chief of police caught on video in the act and many other high profile figures.

A Bigger Army

While the support for independent child predator hunting groups has grown across the nation, these groups are clearly not enough to put a stop to the epidemic that is child sex trafficking nor are the articles I write here on this website.

To stop nearly twenty million of the most dangerous criminals throughout the country, it is going to take every single last one of us to put in some effort and we’re going to need a lot more modern day heroes like these folks to help.

The current and past presidential administrations are not on our side either, as clearly shown in recent years.

I truly believe it is possible. We may fight about culture, race, money, class, bathrooms, and which sports teams are the best, but one thing the vast majority of Americans can agree on is that we must protect the children.
