Feb. 24, 2020
How the Davis County Sheriff's Department used CLEAR in their investigation into the sexual exploitation of children and the production and distribution of child pornography.
In November 2016, a cyber tip came in regarding activity on an open hospital Wi-Fi in Bountiful, Utah. A group of individuals were communicating online, their double lives hidden behind usernames and email addresses. Tens of thousands of chats demonstrated a disturbing mutual interest: the sexual exploitation of children and the production and distribution of child pornography.
The Davis County Sheriff's Department trusted CLEAR® to connect the dots and protect the innocent.
