Link to: Recorded sexual offences among juveniles in Australia

The Australian Institute of Criminology has released a new Statistical Bulletin on recorded sexual offences among juveniles in Australia.

This study examined trends in the rate of juveniles proceeded against for sexual offences across a 13-year period leading up to mid-2021.
Recorded sexual offences among juveniles were consistently higher than the rate for adults per 100,000 Australians.
While recorded assaultive sexual offences by juveniles decreased during these 13 years, recorded non-assaultive sexual offences increased notably.
