Braden Markus was 15 years old when he was sextorted.

In the moments before his death, he pleaded with the person targeting him.

Stories like Braden’s are heartbreaking — and they’re happening to teens across the country.

Sextortion criminals rely on fear and shame to control their victims. But silence is what they count on.

If you or someone you know is being threatened online, tell a trusted adult immediately.

You are not in trouble.

Silence helps predators — conversation protects kids. Talk early, talk often.
