Offenders ‘emboldened’ by failure of authorities to investigate, says three-year investigation into scandal
More than a thousand children in Telford were sexually exploited over decades amid the failure of authorities to investigate “emboldened offenders”, an independent inquiry into the scandal has concluded.
The three-year investigation by the independent inquiry into child sexual abuse (IICSA) found that exploitation was allowed to continue for years and children, rather than perpetrators, were often blamed.
