Abuse of young girls

Didn't watch it but I think the child is sometimes lost by being labelled. I once heard a police officer talk about underage prostitutes. He said that when they were picked up for soliciting the law treats them as prostitutes and not as children. His argument was that a child prostitute is a victim not a criminal and should be treated accordingly.

I watched this - not all of it - and 're not doing anything, the word cowardice comes to mind.

Very distressing and ANGER MAKING to watch.

Not watching.
I can't understand the mentality of anyone who'd cover up this sort of thing, for any reason.

It's also about the perceived 'worth' of the children/ young girls involved in these sorts of cases isn't it?

Again and again in child abuse stories it is the decision of authorities not to do anything, not to rock the boat that condemns so many children to such terrible suffering.

The report on the extent of abuse of children in care in Jersey came out today. Once again authorities with the responsibility for the care of children, ignored evidence of abuse because it would cause embarrassment to the authorities.
