U.S. and international law enforcement authorities have shut down one of the world’s largest child pornography websites following a raid and the arrest of Jong Woo Son, the underground site’s alleged South Korean-based administrator, federal officials said Wednesday.
Federal prosecutors with the U.S. attorney’s office in Washington, D.C., and IRS and Homeland Security Investigation officials called the “Welcome to Video” website one of a host of bitcoin-based, online bazaars that filled the vacuum after the 2013 take down of Silk Road, a notorious “eBay” black market exchange for narcotics, prostitution and other dark net contraband.
