Summary Investigation of "Stop Child Trafficking Now" nonprofit. Despite bold claims at its fundraising events, the investigation found SCTNow was not living up to its promoted message of taking child predators off the streets. In fact, the organization could not point to one case anywhere in the country where information gathered by "special operatives" had lead to an arrest or prosecution. It did not seem like much of a return on a $400,000 investment- the annual amount used to fund "special operative" teams.
