Insights Into Sexual Assault Perpetration
The Giving Voice project uses the accounts of victim/survivors to provide further insight into the behaviours, strategies and tactics of sexual offenders. This report presents findings from the project, which features interviews with 33 victim/survivors of sexual assault in Australia, practitioner consultations, and a literature review of sexual offending strategies. The victim/survivor narratives about where, when, and how they were assaulted show that opportunities for sexual offending are deeply embedded in ordinary, everyday contexts. Perpetrators used the resources present in any given situation to overpower and overcome the women, and conceal, deny, and excuse the offence. The report discusses victim and perpetrator characteristics, the circumstances of the assault, perpetrator strategies and planning, and the implications of this research for prevention and policy.
