Stop Online Child Abuse

Girls at a laptop

Amid a big rise in the number of reports about potential child abuse or online grooming, how can people stay safe?

Between April 2009 and March 2010, there were more than 6,000 reports sent to the police agency which protects youngsters on the web, nearly 900 more than the previous year. Ceop said a quarter (1,536) related to grooming and another quarter (1,553) related to the possession and distribution of images. The rise was partly down to a greater awareness of the problem, more children using the internet, and young people increasingly posting explicit images of themselves online which could end up on paedophile networks.

Man Sentenced for Trading Child Porn

Posted by Sandra On November - 5 - 2010 ADD COMMENTS

A Salina man who went by the name “pervypedostrokin” when trading child pornography images in an Internet chat room was sentenced to 15 years in federal prison, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Kansas announced Wednesday. Nathan E. Boyce, 42, pleaded guilty to one count of distributing child pornography and admitted to posting pornographic images of children on a public website for trade with other collectors, according to a statement from U.S. Attorney Barry Grissom.

The investigation was begun by agents of Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Los Angeles, who targeted a website on which users were posting and trading child pornography in a chat room. They found Boyce at his home in Salina by following an electronic trail left by a user who called himself “pervypedostrokin,” the statement said.

On March 11, investigators served a search warrant at Boyce’s home and seized computers that contained more than 50 movie files depicting children as young as 3 engaged in sex, bondage, bestiality and masturbation.
