(Jackson Barron) Four children, one as young as two-months-old, have been filmed being raped before the videos were distributed to sick paedophiles all over the world.

Sixteen people were charged with 728 sexual abuse and child exploitation offences after a two-year investigation by the Australian Federal Police in conjunction with the US Department of Homeland Security.
The children were reportedly related to their abusers, who used the dark web and encryption technologies to send explicit images and videos around the world before they were finally rescued.
AFP Commissioner Reece Kershaw said the coronavirus lockdown had created a surge in activity on the dark web, including grooming and live-streaming, and warned parents to be hyper aware of what their children are doing online at all times.
‘It is very hard to explain to a society, to people who don’t see the images,’ he told The Australian. ‘These involve images like you’ve never seen before.’

There were 632 charges related to those from Victoria and 70 to those in NSW, with all 16 charged with contact offending and producing and exchanging child sex material through the internet.
Evidence from the arrests led detectives to believe child pornography was being produced in Australia for distribution around the world.

Homeland Security officers in Phoenix, Arizona notified the Australian Federal Police and Australian Centre to Counter Child Exploitation of increased illegal online activity in the country in 2018, leading to Operation Walwa to investigate.
The online paedophile networks were difficult for law enforcement to monitor due to the sophisticated encryption software used to shield their illegal activity.

Peter Dutton said tech companies who do not cooperate with police to grant encryption technologies to investigators could become subject to legislation
Home Affairs Minister Peter Dutton said there had been an increase in people looking to access explicit online material during the coronavirus pandemic.
‘We have had increasing reports of people seeking to exploit the increased amount of screen time children will be spending online during the current climate, to gain access to and abuse children,’ he said.
Mr Dutton hit out at tech companies who had refused to grant detectives access to encryption technologies to aid the investigation.
He said they could become subject to legislation to force their assistance.
AFP Commissioner Reece Kershaw said police will continue to analyse material in the hope of rescuing more child victims
Australian police receive nearly 20,000 referrals related to online child sexual abuse every year.
Detectives believe students undertaking online schooling from home will be increasingly targeted during the coronavirus period.
Mr Kershaw said police will continue to analyse material to find more victims of the online child paedophile rings as the range of content continues to grow.
‘We are seeing more videos, younger children, and more violence,’ he said. ‘We are seeing the rape and torture of our children. All for sexual gratification.’
The 16 people charged will face court in the coming months.

Stillness in the Storm Editor: Why did we post this?
The news is important to all people because it is where we come to know new things about the world, which leads to the development of more life goals that lead to life wisdom. The news also serves as a social connection tool, as we tend to relate to those who know about and believe the things we do. With the power of an open truth-seeking mind in hand, the individual can grow wise and the collective can prosper.
