Cpl. Matt Kessler- "It's very disheartening to know the things that are going on online and some of its really hard to do anything about at this.. I also have children myself so you know it really makes me think of the people out there and the things that they're doing to our children.... "
Kessler says always remind any minor, its important to contact a parent, counselor, or an adult they trust if they feel targeted.
