Dr Tranchese will carry out in-depth analysis of two of the largest pornographic websites, PornHub and XVideos. She will look at video porno content, keywords, titles, and user comments to determine how online pornography portrays sex and relationships. The study aims to uncover the dominant themes young viewers are exposed to and how these narratives might shape their perceptions of consent, gender equality, and intimacy.

Where B is 13 or over, the offence will not be committed where A reasonably believes that B is 18 or over. (It will be for the prosecution to prove that A does not reasonably believe that B is 18 or over). However, where B is under 13, A will commit the offence regardless of any belief he may have about B’s age. 19.Section 10 makes it an offence for a person (A) aged 18 or over, intentionally to cause or incite a child aged under 16 to engage in sexual activity (as defined at section 78).

There is also departmental advice on Searching, Screening and Confiscation which states that schools have the power to search pupils for devices, search data on devices and delete any indecent images. Failure to notify the police on any of the above or of any changes to any of the above is a criminal offence.

Some people are able to shift their thinking and behaviour in a way that the interest doesn’t make up such a big part of their lives anymore. It is also important to note that not everyone who commits a sexual offence against children, either online or offline, has a sexual interest in children. Think U Know (a website run by an organisation called CEOP) also has some information about how you can support your child if they have experienced sexual abuse. You might find this useful to have a look at and it might have further signposting and resources. Similarly the Trauma and Grief support network has an information sheet regarding how to cope and provide support to your child in situations like these.

The Imposition of community and custodial sentences guideline outlines the general approach to sentencing and provides guidance on how sentencers should address specific issues that may arise when they consider the most appropriate sentence. In either instance, it may be the case that a more severe sentence is imposed in a case where very serious sexual activity was intended but did not take place than in a case where relatively less serious sexual activity did take place. These are specified offences for the purposes of sections 266 and 279 (extended sentence for certain violent, sexual or terrorism offences) of the Sentencing Code. For offences committed on or after 3 December 2012, these are offences listed in in Part 1 of Schedule 15 for the purposes of sections 273 and 283 (life sentence for second listed offence) of the Sentencing Code.

When his home and devices were searched by NCA officers, they discovered more than 3.5 million images including some classed as extreme, as well as a paedophile manual. 254.The definition of “image” at subsection (4) includes photographs, cartoon strips, email attachments and drawings. This catches activities or communications or images that, in all the circumstances, are explicitly or overtly sexual, for example a pornographic film or a description of oral sex. However, where for example a double entendre is used in communication, the reasonable person might have to consider the speaker’s motive before he could decide whether the communication was sexual. So the use of the double entendre would not be “sexual” communication, for the purposes of section 123, as the term is defined in subsection (6).

• 227.Section 110 provides for appeals against the making of an order or an interim order.

208.The offences in Schedule 3 are all sexual offences, some of which are subject to thresholds in relation to age and sentence, below which the offence will not trigger a sexual offences prevention order. The offences in Schedule 5 are violent offences and various offences under this Act relating to trafficking and prostitution and child pornography. Schedule 5 includes murder as well as all the offences in Schedule 15 of the Criminal Justice Act 2003, which relates to the provisions in that Act dealing with “dangerous offenders”. The court may make the direction at the time it deals with the offender in respect of an offence or finding which triggers the notification requirements, or when it makes an order which imposes those requirements. Subsections (4) and (5) also allow the police to apply to the court for a parental direction to be made.

Subsections (2)(e) and (3)(a) and (b) draw an explicit distinction between parental directions imposed by criminal courts and civil courts in Scotland in terms of the procedures and circumstances where such directions can be varied, renewed and discharged in Scotland. Subsection 3(b) and (c) deal with cases where the offender has no home address (as defined in subsection (7) of section 83). He may have no home address because for example he spends most of his time abroad and only returns to the UK occasionally, or because he is itinerant. 169.Section 85 provides (at subsection (1)) that an offender must re-notify the police of the details set out in subsection (5) of section 83 within one year after each of the specified events, unless during this period he re-notifies, because of a change of circumstances, under section 84. 167.Subsections (3) and (4) deal with the scenario in which the change does not take place as notified in advance.
