underage people. They urged Village Voice to implement a
policy where people placing an ad on Backpage.com show
up in person to verify age.
Backpage.com has been the nation's leading source of
online sex escort ads since Craigslist.org shuttered its adult
services section in September 2010.
Shared Hope International has compiled a list of dozens
of cases in 15 states in which girls were allegedly offered
for sex on Backpage.com, most within the past year. The
Seattle Police Department says it has linked 22 cases of
child prostitution since 2010 to girls who were advertised as
escorts on the website.
Washington state recently enacted a law that makes clas-
sified advertising company representatives who publish or
cause publication of sex-related ads peddling children sub-
ject to criminal prosecution. Proof of a good-faith attempt
to verify the age of the advertised person is considered a
defense under the law.
Village Voice Media owns 13 alternative weekly newspa-
pers around the country, including Seattle Weekly. Unlike
Backpage.com, Seattle Weekly requires ID from those
depicted in sex-related ads in its pages.
