Episode Details

Kenner police are sounding the alarm on 23 risky apps that could expose kids to predators — from social and gaming platforms to dating sites. Joining forces with state authorities, they’ve already made 40 arrests and filed 80 charges this year through their Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force. Predators can reach children right in their bedrooms, often using sextortion tactics. One undercover sting revealed a 72-year-old responding to a fake 15-year-old profile — proving how easily kids fall for online scams. Law enforcement urges parents to actively monitor their kids’ digital activity, because these apps aren’t private — and the dangers are real.
