Oppressors Beware.
We Hunt Predators.
IDENTIFY and INTERDICT.
We provide analytical and operational support to Law Enforcement Agencies to interdict sex predators.
We use Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT) to IDENTIFY predators and their prey and INTERDICT predators for pleasure and predators for profit. We’ve created something scalable, and we can expand through the United States and the world.
The Task Force hunts throughout the year, offering direct support to Law Enforcement with small teams and the entire Task Force surges during periodic expeditions to mass the skills of vetted members across the U.S. We directly support law enforcement by providing actionable leads to arrest, prosecute and imprison sex traffickers, and offer victims a path to freedom. This enables law enforcement to conduct effective and efficient counter sex trafficking operations.

the task force
This is the work I love.
This is my battle cry.
And this journey is my healing.
I can’t put into words just how amazing this group of people are. Being a part of the Skull Games task force has introduced me to some of the greatest people God has to offer. People from all walks of life. Law enforcement, military, OSINT professionals, and survivors turned hunters! We do what we do not for any praise or notoriety but because we are actually helping some of the most vulnerable women. I am honored to be part of this ever-growing group and I am excited to watch the growth continue. Thank you to all the volunteers for what you’ve done and continue doing. To all the women still out there, we see you! We are coming. And to the traffickers, watch your
back, we are coming for you. Survivor Hunter
Partnering with skull games was very eye opening and rewarding experience.They are very knowledgeable in what they do and take the time to teach the skills needed to continue to work on your own after working with them. My department and I feel very confident in the ability to run our own operation now. I highly recommend having them come out and work with your agency, you won’t regret it! Joe is the best in the business and knows his stuff and has no problems sharing his knowledge! When it comes to learning about the sex and human trafficking game, Joe and Skull Games is where it’s at.
With their survivor-to-hunter program, it’s fulfilling for me. It really is, and I love it. It gives me purpose. I really would have benefited from something like this back then, just even knowing that there were some people out there looking to help me.
Working alongside Skull Games and bringing lived experience and a skillset has been healing and impactful. I am honored to be part of an incredible team. Skull Games IX fell on the weekend of my freedom date from the man who trafficked me as a teen and to be able to go after these oppressors and hold them accountable so they can’t harm others is something I can’t put into words. The leadership truly values the mission and volunteers, honors survivor leaders, and has cultivated passion for standing against injustice. I’m honored to be part of an incredible organization.
Working as an analyst at Skull Games has been a life-changing journey for me. As a survivor of exploitation, physical, and sexual abuse, I understand the depths of pain and despair that people can experience. Joining this incredible team has not only empowered me but has given me a platform to make a meaningful difference in the lives of others who’ve faced similar or even worse traumas. Through our work, we are changing the narrative, providing support, raising awareness, and offering hope to those in need. It’s a privilege to be part of an organization that stands against injustice and transforms lives, including my own.
The human aspect, along with the support and enablement of survivors in regaining something they lost, is something I did not understand until seeing and hearing it in action…This is on top of the contribution survivors bring to the team’s understanding, not only of the indicators of trafficking and exploitation, but also awareness of and empathy for the victims. No matter how their images appear online, these are victims, and they are being exploited and trafficked.

Read the Skull Games Task Force Values Statement
Skull Games Task Force envisions a world where all individuals, especially women, children, and vulnerable populations, are protected from sexual exploitation. Skull Games works on a global scale to deliver justice and strike fear into traffickers and sex predators. We aim to free individuals from their suffering and interrupt the cycle of abuse for future generations.
The Skull Games Task Force uses Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT) to Identify victims of sexual exploitation, the predators abusing them, and other Persons of Interest (POIs) by creating leads that enable law enforcement to Interrupt the cycle of abuse and Restore survivors of trauma to a life of hope, healing, and freedom.
We believe that sex work creates individual and collective trauma that is physical, emotional, and spiritual. Sex work is any paid employment in the sex industry, including prostitution and sexual entertainment. To be part of the Skull Games Task Force, we do not require every participant to share these views, but we want to be very clear about where we stand as an organization. What we do require is the unequivocal belief that children (minors) should not be recruited or involved in any type of sex work. Skull Games participants must agree that children and other vulnerable populations should be protected from sexual exploitation.
We acknowledge that force, fraud, and coercion are persistent elements within the sex industry, and we recognize that it is the responsibility of the court of law to establish these elements in each individual case.
We maintain that all pimps are traffickers due to their regular use of force, fraud, and coercion, but we recognize that it is the responsibility of the court of law to establish this in each individual case.
We view every person involved in prostitution and trapped in sex trafficking as a victim, and every effort should be made to protect them from prosecution. We appreciate that in some cases, law enforcement and victim advocates will recommend that a victim is charged with a crime (usually prostitution) to keep them safe, and in some cases keep them alive. This decision should be well thought out and very deliberate and when made should very rarely result in an actual prosecution but a dropped charge when the victim is deemed to be safe.
We do not want to traumatize victims or feed into the cycle of abuse that traffickers employ as they force their victims to be the scapegoats for their own malicious crimes.
We begin our process of pursuing justice by identifying indicators of trafficking online and immediately separating out those we think are simply involved in prostitution but focusing on those we believe are being exploited and trafficked. As the Skull Games Task Force moves from this start point to gathering information on the victim, our end state is identifying and gathering evidence on other persons of interest, including pimps, traffickers, and pedophiles that are associated with the victims.
We recognize that it is very difficult for a victim to choose a path of freedom and even accept some basic services when her abuser is still running free. We want to put predators behind bars.
Skull Games provides information, data, and evidence to law enforcement; however, we are not in control of what LE does with it, i.e. arresting any victims. The information we provide is intended to be used as Probable Cause against, pimps, traffickers, buyers, and pedophiles. Skull Games leads are not intended to support or facilitate the arrest of anyone other than predators and exploiters.
Skull Games is a community of interest that volunteers their time, resources, and expertise to protect the vulnerable and bring abusers to justice. We are committed to equal employment and volunteer opportunities without regard to age, ancestry, disability, national or ethnic origin, race, religious belief, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, marital or veteran status.
All we require from Skull Games participants is an intrinsic drive to protect the vulnerable and pursue justice for abusers.
What does the task force do?
The Task Force hunts throughout the year in small teams, but the full Skull Games Task Force quarterly events mass the skills of vetted volunteers across the U.S. At the conclusion of weekend events, we send detailed reports to law enforcement partners with a path of discovery for them to obtain warrants with probable cause or reasonable suspicion.
