🚨 Officer Heidi Chance spent decades going undercover to catch predators targeting children. Her urgent message: NO family is immune, but EVERY family can be protected with the right knowledge. Officer Heidi Chance served 25 years in law enforcement specializing in undercover operations to catch predators and traffickers. She's testified as an expert witness in court and now trains law enforcement agencies, schools, and community organizations on how to recognize and stop these crimes. Her cases have resulted in major convictions, including one trafficker sentenced to 493.5 years in prison.

THE SHOCKING REALITY:
💔 Predators have moved from street corners to smartphones
💔 They can reach kids in their bedrooms through apps you use daily
💔 50% of victims are under 16 years old
💔 Average age of targeting dropped from 15 to 13 in recent years
💔 It's happening to kids from EVERY background - "good families" included

HERE'S HOW TO STOP THEM:
✅ The exact conversations every family must have (and when to start them)
✅ Warning signs that could save a child you love
✅ How predators actually operate on social media (real tactics exposed)
✅ Why traditional "stranger danger" advice is now useless
✅ Specific protection strategies that actually work
✅ Red flags every aunt, uncle, parent, and sibling should recognize

CRITICAL MOMENTS:
05:34 - The age statistics that prove any kid is at risk
19:25 - How predators slide into kids' DMs (actual tactics revealed)
26:20 - The conversations that protect children (exact words to use)
29:01 - Why you must start these talks by age 7-8
31:00 - The mental toll of fighting predators for decades
39:02 - Warning signs that could save someone you love

THE TRUTH: Officer Chance has worked cases involving kids from every background. The 13-year-old whose grandmother was tricked into letting her live with her predator uncle. The corrections officer's daughter. The honor student from the suburbs. Predators don't discriminate - but families can fight back.

FEATURED: 3-year Frontline PBS documentary following Heidi's undercover operations

⚠️ Important: This episode discusses mature themes but provides crucial information every family needs.

Why this could save a life: Whether you're a parent, aunt, uncle, older sibling, or just someone who cares about young people - these protection strategies work. Don't wait until it's too late.
SHARE THIS with every family member who needs to see it. The predators are organized - families need to be too.
