| dc.description.notes | Introduction<br/ >"Attrition of sexual offence cases as they move through the justice system is a well-established and well-documented issue both in Australia and internationally. Sexual offences have higher levels of attrition relative to all other offence types (Roberts, 1996). Concern about elevated levels of attrition for sexual offence cases stems from perceptions that attrition contributes to diminished access to justice for victims and a decreased likelihood that perpetrators are held to account for their offending. Understanding the rate of attrition and reasons for cases not proceeding at each stage of the criminal justice process is a critical first step towards improving policy and practice aimed at increasing progression of cases to adjudication (Triggs, Jordan & Kingi 2009). As a result, an abundance of research has been conducted in an attempt to understand and reduce sexual offence attrition rates at various stages of the justice<br/ >system since at least the mid-1980s (Attorney General's Department of NSW, 2005). The research that has been conducted to date, however, has produced somewhat inconsistent findings."<br/ >Creative commons | en |
