Annotation: The term child sex ring is defined as one or more offenders simultaneously involved sexually with several child victims. Child sex rings have many dynamics different from "typical" intrafamilial abuse cases: multiple victims, multiple offenders, the victim's parents, and the gender of the victim.
Abstract: Two thirds of all victims molested outside the home are boys. The two major patterns or types of child sex ring cases are historical child sex rings and multidimensional child sex rings. Historical child sex rings involve male offenders and male victims, preferential molesters, sexual motivation, child pornography and child erotica, and control through seduction.
Multidimensional child sex rings seem to have the following four dynamics in common:
- (1) multiple young victims
- (2) multiple offenders
- (3) fear as the controlling tactic
- (4) bizarre and/or ritualistic activity
One advantage to the investigation of child sex rings is that the possibility of developing significant corroborative evidence is far greater than in one-on-one sexual abuse cases. The best and easiest way to avoid child victim testimony in court is to build a case that is so strong that the offender pleads guilty.

Title's a bit confusing. What do you mean by "dimensional" (as in, several axes)?

I believe the FBI agent wrote this explains it like this: multi dimensional means that it multifaceted. It includes multiple victims and perps and also involve other criminal activities such as recruiting the children, trafficking the children as well delivering the children for sexual activities.
He states, quote: " In the syndicated ring, a well-structured organisation recruits children, produces pornography, delivers direct sexual services and establishes an extensive network of customers."
