Policing Child Sexual Abuse: Failure, Corruption and Reform in Queensland (Routledge Frontiers of Criminal Justice)

4.9/5 (16862 ratings)

Description:This book provides a historical overview of the evolution of policing child sexual abuse in Queensland, tracing a historical legacy of failure (even corruption) in the decades before the foundation of Taskforce Argos, a branch of the QPS created in part as a response to criticisms of police shortcomings in this area. The book uses a combination of archival and open-source material to trace the evolution of policing child sexual abuse (CSA) from the 1960s, when juvenile justice first became a central focus of policing in Queensland, to the 2010s, at which point Taskforce Argos made international headlines for its primary role in bringing major international CSA offenders like Shannon McCoole, Benjamin "Warhead" Faulkner and Richard Huckle to justice. Examining archival material to pinpoint the reasons that CSA was not dealt with effectively in the past, the book shows that often, these reasons were political, unrelated to the policing of CSA at all, and stands as a testament to the victims of CSA who have been failed by the system in the past. In addition, the book acts as a case study of how a police force with such a negative track record in policing this area was able to correct its path and reform its practices, to the point that it could emerge as a world-leader in policing CSA. Though nominally focused on policing in one Australian state, the implications are global, with Taskforce Argos's work naturally impacting on the CSA investigations of all of its partner agencies. Demonstrating how, even in contexts where police responses to CSA have been met with significant criticism, an opportunity still exists to reject historical failures in favour of a renewed commitment to proactive policing of CSA, this book will be of great interest to scholars of policing, historical criminology and child sexual abuse.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
