This gripping
documentary exposes the alarming rise of sexual predators on the Internet. In
this fast growing criminal arena, one in five young people with Internet access
are sexually approached on the web. The predators slip silently into homes,
assuming false identites to attract their unsuspecting victims.A Stranger in Our Home tells the disturbing tale of two teenagers. Believing he was exploring sexuality with another 13-year old boy, Daniel shared all his secrets with his online friend. In reality he was talking to a 59-year-old pedophile who eventually persuaded him to leave his family in Canada and meet him in the U.S. In another example, Stephanie agreed to meet her teenage boyfriend in a motel parking lot after establishing an Internet relationship with him. He turned out to be a married man in his 40’s with children. These cases become even more frightening when we hear details of such stalking from the confession of a jailed pedophile. The police are having a difficult time catching up with these virtual criminals.
