SummitCast #16 What's the problem with pornography?

One of the major drivers for child sex trafficking is to produce child pornography. The most obvious victims of the industry are those making the content--especially the trafficking victims.

But consumers are also victims. Easy access from mobile devices leads to younger and younger teens and pre-teens getting drawn in to some of the most violent and degrading material on the Internet.

The consumers can also become addicted to porn--which can be as devastating to a person's life as any other addition.

Mary Kehoe joins us again to talk about this important issue.
