The fact is, 90% of the time it is NOT a stranger. Roughly 100 stranger abductions happen per year according to NCMEC.

• Online Enticement: Reports jumped to 518,720, a 77% increase from the previous year.
• AI-Generated Abuse: Cases involving generative AI (G*I) to create exploitative material exploded from 6,835 to over 440,000.
• Child S*x Trafficking: Reports surged by 950%, with more than 62,000 reports filed in the first six months.
