EpochTV Review: Human Trafficking: A Growing Threat

We often hear the saying, “the times they are a changing.” One example of this is the ever-increasing problem of child sex trafficking. Our current technology, while benefiting us in many ways, also has a dark side. It has given predators another way to entice their victims. Jaco Booyens, founder of SHAREtogether, a non-profit organization dedicated to ending child sex trafficking and providing victims with needed resources, appeared on NTD’s The Wide Angle. Mr. Booyens provided some vital information about the dangers lurking in our society today. Long gone are the days when all we had to worry about was the strange man down the street or at the mall.
Now, predators can troll for victims via the internet. Since most kids have access to the internet via computers, tablets, phones and even video games, the danger is even more real. Many video games have chat options and others even have voice chat options. KHOU news in Houston reported a 200 percent increase in cases of pedophiles contacting underage children via video games, according to the Houston Police Department.
