'Backpage' backlash: Site frustrates cops fighting online sex trade

Recommended Posts

There is an abolitionist group who figured they could determine how many bp ads were 'trafficked' underaged victims.

 

They based their calculations, like this guy, by looking at the ads and deciding they could tell how old she was based on the picture.

 

Nothing like good old fashioned BSing to create hysteria.

 

It's funny because LE in the US also does an operation called cross country, where they contact advertisers specifically looking for victims and underagers. There stats of rescue is seriously low, in many cities they find none, in most cities of all the ads contacted they find one. meaning that you cannot tell just by looking.

 

In almost all of these cases, in the Cross country operation, LE arrested all of the providers they found. i think they arrest the under 18s as well.

 

example

 

as you can see from the list of arrests at the bottom of Atlanta's report, the vast majority of arrests are of sps. in spite of really looking, and they did claim to find 11, many of whom are like any underage .., i am sure, willing. but nevertheless, illegal. they arrested a total of 71 people in this operation. which begs the question, if they were seriously searching for under 18s, and they were looking at the ads, they had to know that setting up to visit someone whose real age is 33 should not have been one of their targeted ads.

 

i've also seen instances of a woman arrested, the sister of an .., for driving her sister to an appt. The charge is pimping.
