Please join the San Diego Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force and SDPD for a film screening of Maria Demeshkina Peek’s, "Sextortion: The Hidden Pandemic," on Thursday, February 23, 2023, at 6:00 p.m., at the Rock Church, Pt. Loma Campus. The screening is free and open to middle and high-school-aged children and their parents. Following the screening of the film, a panel discussion will occur.
The film is an investigation into the world of online grooming and sextortion--a present-day reality for one in seven children online. By unsealing the federal case of a top-gun pilot with hundreds of victims, and interviewing survivors and their parents, this true-crime piece exposes an often-overlooked crime against children, the tactics of online predators, and the voices of parents and law enforcement poised to stop online child exploitation in its tracks.
Doors open at 5 pm for interactions with various law enforcement agencies.
The screening will begin promptly at 6 pm with the panel discussion immediately following.
Register for the free event HERE.
For questions about the screening, contact Detective Sergeant Garrick Nugent via email at gnugent@sdicac.org.
