Georgia’s Crackdown on Internet Sex Crimes
Internet sex crimes are on the rise due to the availability of widespread Internet access on computers and mobile devices. In response to this heightened online criminal activity, state and federal law enforcement agencies are taking aggressive measures to crack down on the trend. In fact, it’s not uncommon for cops and federal agents to go undercover and pose as minors in an attempt to draw out would-be sexual offenders.
In Georgia, these sting operations are often carried out by the Georgia Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force and the Georgia Bureau of Investigation’s Child Exploitation and Computer Crimes (CEACC) Unit. Since its inception in 2002, the Georgia ICAC Task Force has made over 2,000 arrests. In 2019 alone, it made 474 arrests.
