Sexual Trafficking in Children An Investigation of the Child Sex Trade

Based on five years of field research, the study examines the dynamics and characteristics of participants in various underage sex markets, such as child pornography, juvenile prostitution, sex tourism, indenturing, and sex rings. Efforts to help victims overcome the psychological and practical impacts of their experiences are described, as are law enforcement approaches and judicial responses.Poffenberger, Donald L. is the author of 'Sexual Trafficking in Children An Investigation of the Child Sex Trade' with ISBN 9780865691551 and ISBN 086569155X.
