Collier, Anne. “Amy’s Story.” NetSmartz. National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, and Boys & Girls Clubs of America, 2004. Web. 21 August 2010.
This is an article telling the story about a girl named Amy (her real name was changed for the article) who gets involved with a man named Bill online through a chat room, and how he was able to manipulate Amy into thinking he loves her and that she was the only one he’d met online. As the story continues, Amy sneaks out to meet Bill who then sexually assaults her. He eventually tells Amy the truth that she isn’t the first girl he had met from the internet and she realizes then that she had been, as she put it, “suckered”. This article shares a story that grabs people’s attention and helps them visualize just how an online predator can manipulate children and adolescents to the predator’s desires. Anne Collier has done a few articles relating to the safety of children online. This particular article is shared on NetSmartz which is hosted by the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, which is a reparable organization and I think a valuable resource.
Connell, Catherine S., and Martha J. Finnegan. “Interviewing complaint adolescent victims.” The FBI Law Enforcement Bulletin 79.5 (2010): 16+. General OneFile. Web. 22 August 2010.
This article is about the interviewing of young victims of cyber abuse by law enforcement and legal personnel. I found the article to be somewhat brief, but it is valuable as it is dense with information on the psychological side of “how” and “why” children and adolescents fall victim to internet predators. I liked this particular article because it differed from many other articles in that it explained the importance of how an interview should be conducted, and in explaining that importance it helps the reader grasp a better understanding of the psychological impact of the victims. I believe the psychological awareness and facts
