Berger’s section of child pornography discusses informative information about what exactly pornography is, and how to go about it. After reading this section, I remember just reading about a child pornography case where task forcer raided homes for child pornographers. In Salt Lake Valley Utah, Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force raided a home for suspected child pornography. As this task force callled this sweep was the “Operation Spring Cleaning” served 17 warrants for computers and suspects accused of trading images of child porn. Lt. Jessica Farnsworth, the field commander for the Internet Crimes against Children Task Force, and two other agents escorted David Simpson, who is now charged with sexual exploitation of a minor for trading images of child porn. This operation was in the process for several weeks and investigators spent long hours on this project. To charge these child pornographers, investigators were downloading and trading picture and videos of children being sexually exploited. I think this task force did a great job finding child pornographers that seem to be trading on a regular basis and are very much involved in trafficking illegal images. However, this is another problem where the government also needs to step in. The media needs to be cracked down upon also due to their explicit material being shown across the board including websites, tv shows, and pornographic magazines. If this kind of material is inaccesable then our country, I believe, will benefit from it as a whole.
