Maggie Daun tackles the pressing issue of sextortion, a growing cybercrime targeting youth. John DeMay shares the tragic story of his son Jordan's suicide due to sextortion. He and Maggie underscore the urgency of legislative action. Sextortion involves criminals posing as peers online to extort explicit images and money from teens. John's advocacy led to Michigan enacting laws against such crimes, serving as a model for other states like Wisconsin, which is currently debating similar legislation with 'Bradyn's Law' proposed by Sen. Jesse James. John issues a call to action for parents, lawmakers, and communities to protect children from this insidious threat.
