A man by the name of Brian K. Hendrix was just sentenced to twenty one years in prison for his role in an international child exploitation ring, revolving around getting underage girls to perform sexual acts on a webcam. He would use fake profiles on different social media websites to convince underage girls, some as young as eight, that he was also a young girl. He would then play a video of another victim of his performing sexual acts in front of the camera, convincing the new victim to do the same and record it for his child pornography website. The department that built the case is known as the FBI’s Violent Crimes Against Children Section (VCACS). A total of eight other co-conspirators where arrested and sentenced as a part of the operation, from New York to South Africa. This particular case is a fantastic example of the FBI working with other federal agencies and even other nation’s police forces. I counted over a dozen agencies that assisted in making these arrests, involving the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and South African
