Summary Of The Secret Needing To Be Told By Stephen B. Aranha

In “Sexual Abuse The Secret Needing To Be Told” Stephen B. Aranha asserts that the majority of sex based crimes go unreported to law enforcements. As a result, no action can be taken against malefactors and that the statistical data gathered is defective. Despite research being arduous to obtain, Aranha assimilated findings from a variety of sources which indicates that sexual abuse is more likely to occur in homes where domestic abuse is present, in female high schoolers rather than male, in most cases the assailant is known by the victim, and that rape and sexual assault is not as prevalent as unlawful sex.
Within the monograph Aranha promotes “a multi-pronged approach” consisting of six means to combat sexual abuse within The Bahamas.
