Okay Virginia citizens, we need to fight this one .

Interesting as we have a TV series here in the UK called Holby city (Hospital Drama series), one of the story lines recently centred around child trafficking & sexual abuse.
If this sort of storyline helps one person come forward and seek help then it is worth running.
However storylines such as this, also carry a BBC action line helpline number after the program for anyone affected by the content.
Holby city is not a program made for or aimed at children, so again kinda different as the books being referred to clearly are.
It is a shame we can't get people on fedi who work to help victims, so I will just include the link again.
I am sure they could offer some insight in to how we should handle this topic.
@cully45 Good idea, do you have any national charities who deal with this.
There is

Who may be more useful in the US, as I think Banadoes are just UK based (however they may have branches in other commonwealth countries)
You need to start conversations
I can't comment on these, as they were a result of a duck duck go search

Perhaps these would be a more appropriate alternative.
@zleap
I'd rather go after the school board of Fairfax first with criminal charges under corruption of a minor, etc.
@cully45 +1 to that or at least make them justify their argument and let others put their argument against the use of these books before a judge.
@zleap
An excellent site, I will check to see if those books are also in the school libraries.
+1 good I can help with that, it seems we need more resources or at least know how to access these resources.
Not an easy subject to talk about this.
@zleap
I try to keep my rage under wraps and go for the straight reasoned approach. I'll let you know what happens after I speak with Sheriff Messner, hopefully Monday.
@cully45 THat is the best way, keep your cool otherwise you could end up the one in trouble for being aggressive.
@zleap
Thank you for the help, tis the children that need our help most of all.
@zleap
Yes, thank you. My plan is to first speak with our sheriff on Monday and see what statues/laws Fiarfax is breaking on this, he set up a hotline a few years ago regarding online pedos and children. Even though Fairfax is not his county, I'm sure he would know the best one to speak with.
