Written from a police perspective, this volume examines the problem of sexual predation, how the Internet has contributed to its growth, and how we can protect the public from these offenders. The book identifies characteristics associated with sexual predation and explains how the predator "grooms" his victims by gaining their trust. Chapters cover a range of topics, including child abuse, incest, pedophilia in the clergy, sex trafficking, female sex offenders, and child pornography. The author explains how the Internet through social networking sites provides ample opportunities for sexual predators to entice their victims. He examines rehabilitation issues, describes relevant legislation, and discusses sex offender registration.
