WASHINGTON, May 7 (UPI) -- Project Safe Childhood, a U.S. Justice Department program, received a $5 million boost in its battle against sexual exploitation of children on the Internet.
The money will be used to fund 43 new assistant U.S. attorney positions nationwide to prosecute offenders, the department said in a news release Wednesday.
"Anyone who uses the Internet to prey on children will become the primary target of law enforcement. These additional resources back up this commitment," said Deputy Attorney General Mark Filip.
Project Safe Childhood is a nationwide initiative of the Justice Department developed to protect children from online exploitation and abuse.
