2022/25476 - Non-consensual sharing of intimate images

REQUEST

I request data on involving the non-consensual sharing of intimate images, which some call ‘revenge porn’. For clarity’s sake, this includes the disclosure of, threats to disclose, or attempts to disclose, private sexual photographs/film with intent to cause distress.

For this request, please provide the number of cases recorded by month, from January 2016 (or, earliest available date, whichever is sooner), up until the most current date at the point of production. In addition to the number of cases, please also provide:

• The monthly number of cases split by outcome.
• The monthly number of cases split by whether an arrest was made.  
• The monthly number of cases split by available victim demographic information (such as age, sex, race, ethnicity, and other available demographic information).
• The monthly number of cases split by the suspect’s relationship to the victim
• The monthly number of cases split by the suspect’s demographic information (such as age, sex, race, ethnicity, and other available demographic information).

Please provide such data electronically, ideally as a spreadsheet. If any individual part of the request is not available, please provide all parts which are. If monthly data is not available, please provide annual data instead.

CLARIFICATION

Yes, I mean the number of offences recorded.
