A veteran crime reporter surveys child sexual abuse, its myths and the risk from family members and trusted figures. It details how abuse often goes unreported, outlines 1985 US cases, and provides young victims’ safety guidelines from the NCPCA to tell trusted adults and resist secrets.
Public awareness and school programs broaden recognition of child sexual abuse in Linn Benton and Jones counties. Cases rose 1982 to 1983 and then fluctuated as law changes and reporting improved. Wyckoff notes roughly half of victims are boys and most abusers are men, with few prosecutions due to evidentiary hurdles.
