The Justice Department deleted some verbiage on its website about child sex trafficking. The deleted content did not address the level of priority the department gives to fighting child sex trafficking.

"No child is immune to becoming a victim of child sex trafficking, regardless of the child’s race, age, socioeconomic status, or location, and every child involved in this form of commercial sexual exploitation is a victim."

Justice Department attorneys work with law enforcement authorities around the U.S. to investigate and prosecute child sex trafficking cases, and help coordinate international investigations, the page says.
