‘Sweetie’ Catching Online Pedophiles by the Thousands [VIDEO]

The world wide web can be a very dark place. We must always be vigilant when it comes to protecting not only ourselves, but also our precious children. Cybersex crimes against children are more prevalent than you think, and a relatively new trend is victimizing kids worldwide--Child Sex Tourism. But one charitable organization has found a way to curb and catch child predators virtually.

I think most of us are familiar with Dateline NBC's 'To Catch a Predator' segments. Well an organization that calls itself Terre des Hommes has created a virtual child that is amazingly real. Her name is 'Sweetie.' Her sole job is to attract pedophiles. And when she's logged on, the scum of the earth swarm in by the hundreds. In a short amount of time, Terre des Hommes can gather all kinds of information and locations of the predators.
