Innocent Images

It’s heartbreaking,
and it happens.

Virtually every day, children are exploited and lured away from their families by cyber sexual predators. The FBI is committed to stopping these crimes through our Innocent Images National Initiative. Based in Maryland, it joins FBI agents with local and international task force members who collaborate in online undercover investigations specifically geared towards stopping those who prey on our children.
