Child Pornography Prosecutions Down by Half (TRAC)
Dec 7th, 2007 by Viviane
TRAC is the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse, maintained at Syracuse University. In August 2007, there were 62 federal prosecutions of child pornography, according to timely enforcement data from the Justice Department. Though unchanged from the previous month, filings in this category are down by about half (49.7%) from the previous year, and down 20% from five years ago. These declines follow a period of rapid growth for federal child pornography prosecutions which began after President Bush took office.
For reports on the latest enforcement trends, go to:

In addition to providing counts of the child pornography prosecutions and convictions that occurred in August, similarly timely information is available for many other categories of enforcement such as terrorism, white collar crime, official corruption, drugs, etc. Free reports are also available for major agencies such as the DEA, FBI, IRS and DHS.
