In addition to direct sexual contact, child sexual abuse also occurs when an adult indecently exposes their genitalia to a child, asks or pressures a child to engage in sexual activities, displays pornography to a child, or uses a child to produce child pornography.CLINIC FOR CHILDREN, we smile with youhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13937135211402900335noreply@blogger.comBlogger50125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7406455044074028187.post-52356982937946814882008-12-24T17:41:00.000-08:002008-12-24T17:47:07.142-08:00LAW AND SEXUAL ABUSE<div align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">FALSE ACCUSATIONS OF CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE</span></strong></div><br /><br />Provided by<br />DR WIDODO JUDARWANTO<br /><strong>FIGHT CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE AND PEDOPHILIA</strong><br />Yudhasmara Foundation<br />JL TAMAN BENDUNGAN ASAHAN 5 JAKARTA PUSAT, JAKARTA INDONESIA 10210<br />PHONE : (021) 70081995 – 5703646<br />email : <a href="mailto:judarwanto@gmail.com">judarwanto@gmail.com</a>,<br /><a href="http://pedophiliasexabuse.blogspot.com/">http://pedophiliasexabuse.blogspot.com/</a><br /><br /><strong></strong><br /><strong>False Accusations of Sexual Abuse Involving a Minor</strong><br />It is easy to accuse someone of child molestation or rape, and once the accusation is made the damage is done. We see false accusations in these cases against out clients on a regular basis, and we understand the dynamics that often lead to these accusations being made.<br />For example, you’ve been going through a long, drawn-out child custody battle with your spouse. One day, out of the blue, a detective shows up at your office. “Sir, we want to ask you a few questions about your daughter.” Then the horror begins—the detective speaks the unspeakable—your young daughter has allegedly told your ex-wife that you’ve been touching her on her privates. With little more than a brief interview of your daughter and your ex wife you could be charged with a Class A sex offense with the potential of life in prison.<br />Or, you’ve just moved in with your romantic partner of two years, who has a teenage daughter. The daughter is out of control, staying out late, partying, using drugs and alcohol, skipping school, dating multiple boyfriends. You decide to enforce boundaries with this teenager, there is an argument and she runs away. Before you know it, you’re getting a phone call from CPS, who’s at the school interviewing the teenager about allegations that you forced her to have sexual intercourse with you while her mother was at work.<br /><br />False allegations and false accusations of sexual abuse against children are brought more often than one would think, and defending the person accused takes experience and skill. These allegations are made for a variety of reasons, but the impact is always severe. We work as a team on these difficult cases every day. We know how to investigate the allegations and not rely on what the police reports tell us. We know how to employ the experts and interviewing techniques to uncover false accusations. We have a proven track record of dismissals and not guilty verdicts that demonstrate our ability to fight the false accusation.<br /><br /><strong>How could I end up falsely accused of sexually abusing a child?</strong><br />In our experience, we see two major themes emerge in all cases involving false accusations; dysfunctional families and faulty police investigations.<br /><br />Dysfunctional families: Children will sometimes falsely accuse family members of sexual abuse when the family is in crisis or upheaval. The parents are getting divorced and fighting for custody. An uncle has a serious drug addiction which has siphoned off family resources. Mom has started dating a new boyfriend, and her daughter resents him. A teenager is acting out at school and is looking for an excuse for her behavior. A child gets caught acting out sexually and takes that opportunity to blame someone else.<br /><br /><strong>What are some of the examples of family dysfunction you’ve seen which result in false accusations of child sexual abuse?</strong><br />Although there are many reasons for a child to falsely accuse someone, the common themes we see in practice are :<br /><ul><li>Child custody disputes </li><li>Long and bitter divorce proceedings </li><li>Suggestive and leading questioning by authority figures </li><li>Intentionally placed false memories </li><li>Teenagers acting out of control </li><li>Attention-seeking behavior by the child </li><li>Prior sexual abuse within the family </li><li>Divorced parents dating new romantic partners </li><li>New stepparents enforcing boundaries, causing resentment by the child </li><li>Drug and/or alcohol abuse by the accused, causing resentment by the child </li><li>Drug and/or alcohol abuse by the child </li><li>Challenges managing mental illness of the child, including borderline personality disorder, bipolar disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder </li><li>Adverse reactions to psychotropic medication used to treat mental health disorders, including Celexa, Paxil, Zyprexa, Lithium, Ritalin, and others </li><li>We know how to identify these issues and to make them an issue in your defense. We are prepared to do the investigation, work with the experts, and interview the children involved to insure that the roots of the false accusation are clearly exposed.</li></ul><p>Faulty police work: Police officers are human, and they can make critical errors when investigating these emotionally-charged crimes. Police often take the word of the accuser at face value and never question what their told. They investigate to confirm their belief that the accuser is telling the truth, instead of testing the truthfulness of the accusations. A brief police investigation and a brief interview of a child may be all that is collected before you are charged with life changing allegations. We have the experience and the skill to expose faulty, brief and biased investigations, and to conduct our own investigation to insure you are properly represented.</p><p><br /><strong><span style="font-size:130%;">What are some of the examples of faulty police work you’ve seen which result in false accusations of child sexual abuse?<br /></span></strong>Common examples are:<br />Suggestive interviewing of the child by others that is not discovered by the police.<br />Brief and suggestive interviews of children that do not test the allegations. Investigative interviews are typically not conducted at all until the defense attorney gets their chance, and the attorney better know what their doing if this is to uncover the problems with the charges.<br />Confirmatory investigations—officers investigate to CONFIRM the statement of the child, instead of test and challenge its truthfulness<br />Failing to seek out evidence, such as counseling records and school records or other children who are alleged to have seen the conduct<br />Failing to take a thorough history of the child, including alcohol and drug use, psychiatric history, and use of psychiatric medications<br />Using coercive means to obtain statements from the accused<br />Failing to interview witnesses who either corroborate or contradict statements by the child<br />We understand what a police investigation should entail, and are able to criticize the cursory investigations we see in our practice. We then communicate those problems effectively and in a way that a jury will understand.</p><p><br /></p>CLINIC FOR CHILDREN, we smile with youhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13937135211402900335noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7406455044074028187.post-51774459464812063792008-12-24T17:32:00.000-08:002008-12-24T17:41:16.008-08:00LAW AND CHIL SEXUAL ABUSE<div align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">CHILDREN SUXUAL ABUSE SERIAL CASE</span></strong></div><div align="center"><strong></strong> </div><div align="left"><span style="font-size:85%;">Provided by<br />DR WIDODO JUDARWANTO</span></div><div align="left"><span style="font-size:85%;"><strong><span style="font-size:130%;">FIGHT CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE AND PEDOPHILIA</span></strong><br />Yudhasmara Foundation<br />JL TAMAN BENDUNGAN ASAHAN 5 JAKARTA PUSAT, JAKARTA INDONESIA 10210<br />PHONE : (021) 70081995 – 5703646<br />email : </span><a href="mailto:judarwanto@gmail.com"><span style="font-size:85%;">judarwanto@gmail.com</span></a><span style="font-size:85%;">,<br /></span><a href="http://pedophiliasexabuse.blogspot.com/"><span style="font-size:85%;">http://pedophiliasexabuse.blogspot.com/</span></a></div><br /><br /><ol><li><a href="http://masscases.com/cases/sjc/439/439mass281.html">Doe v.

Should it be legal? What constitutes obscenity? Is there a difference between erotica and hard core material? The answers are not simple ones, and there is no clear consensus on what is and is not obscene. The only part of the pornography debate where there is a consensus is the abolition of any kind of pornographic material involving children. It is a form of child abuse and it is wrong.<br /><br />To most of us, pornography is a film or a magazine where sexual acts between two consenting adults are depicted. However, there is a whole population of people out there who derive sexual gratification from seeing young children in pornographic material. To properly combat this form of child abuse, those who are involved at each stage of the process must be targeted and punished.<br /><br />Crimes against children are the most horrendous acts of all. The use of children in pornographic material to serve the sexual desires of anyone is disgusting. And it is a crime. These acts cannot be tolerated. Legislation was finally adopted to make possession illegal. It was a long time coming. Most Canadians believe that any involvement by a person in this should be punished. Any behavior or material which advocates the abuse of children should be illegal. Art cannot be a defense to this kind of material. It only serves as legitimization for pedophiles, and this leads to more abuse. Artists have a responsibility to society, and they cannot produce whatever they want. There must be limits.<br /><br />Law enforcement agencies need to take an offensive approach in the battle against child pornography. The new laws should help ensure that child pornography will not become a bigger problem than it already is. But any child victimized in this way is one too many. The mere thought of young children being used and manipulated in these ways is revolting to most. There can never be too much protection for our children.<br /><br /><br /><strong>PREVIOUS LAW</strong><br />Until August of 1993, it was not a crime to possess this kind material in Canada. Laws were aimed at the producers and distributors of the material. Offenses included producing, distributing mailing obscene materials and producing obscene performances. It did not specifically deal with the issue of the use of children in pornography. The word "pornography" was not even mentioned in the Criminal Code. It was covered by "offenses tending to corrupt morals," and was referred to as "obscene" material. Obscene was defined as the "undue exploitation of sex" or the "undue exploitation" with images of crime, horror, cruelty or violence. The maximum penalty for these various offenses was 2 years.<br />Other offenses included in the Criminal Code deal with the prohibition of the importation of obscene material into Canada. It is illegal to mail obscene material. Written material describing the sexual use or exploitation of children is also illegal. Written material urging sex with children is forbidden.<br /><br /><strong>THE BADGELY (1984), FRASIER (1985) AND ROGERS (1990) REPORTS<br /></strong>In 1984 when the Badgely Report was released, it sent a shockwave through Canada. It was one of the first comprehensive studies of the sexual abuse of children in Canadian society. The results were astounding. It reported that one half of all girls are victims of unwanted sexual acts, and one out of every three boys are victimized at least once in their lives. Among other things, the report discussed child pornography. It reports that while the child pornography market was relatively small (between 1979 and 1981, 5236 pieces of child pornography were seized), the problem was a serious one.<br />The Badgely report, like the Frasier and the Rix Rogers reports, found that Canadian law in the area of child pornography was seriously lacking. They proposed that the government create laws to specifically deal with child pornography, and that everyone involved be punished including those who possessed such material. Stronger sentences were also recommended.<br />R. v. BUTLER<br />In 1992, the Supreme Court of Canada upheld the Criminal Code definition of obscenity. They identified what they considered to be the three types of pornography: 1.) pornography with violence; 2.) pornography without violence that is degrading or dehumanizing; and 3.) pornography that is neither degrading or violent. The third category is "legal" pornography, however the exception was pornography that involves children. The court said that any pornography which uses children qualifies as the undue exploitation of children, and is therefore obscene. The provisions on the prohibition of written material were also upheld by the Supreme Court of Canada.<br /><br /><strong>CURRENT LAW</strong><br />The law took ten years to change, and two previous attempts failed despite the fact that the Badgley Report (1984), the Frasier Report (1985) and the Rogers Report (1990) all recommended that changes be made to the Criminal Code to address children in pornography. One wonders why it took so long.<br />As it now stands, there is a possible five-year sentence for possessing child pornography. It is also an offence to possess written materials that advocate having sex with children. There is a ten-year maximum for anyone who produces (makes, prints, publishes, etc.) or distributes or sells child pornography. Also, those people who try to coerce young people into being a part of a pornographic item are liable to a term of ten years. These changes are very similar to those proposed in the mid 1980's by the Badgely and Frasier Reports.<br /><br /><strong>Child pornography refers to,</strong><br />(a) photograph, film, video or other visual representation, whether or not it was made by electronic or mechanical means (computer generated images)<br />(i) that show a person who is or who is depicted as being under the age of 18 years and is engaged in or is depicted as engaged in explicit sexual activity, or<br />(ii) the dominant characteristic of which is the depiction, of a sexual purpose, of a sexual organ or the anal region of a person who is under the age of eighteen years; or<br />(b) any written material or visual representation that advocates or counsels sexual activity with a person under the age of eighteen years This definition includes situations where adult models are used to portray children. Some feel that this definition is too vague because it does not define what constitutes explicit sexual activity. For example, could the movie, "The Boys of St. Vincent," which is based on the abuse of children by priests in orphanages be considered pornographic? Recently an artist was arrested for possessing and making pornographic materials. The materials were his paintings. Eli Langer painted depictions of a young boy being sodomized by an older man, "a naked girl straddling the neck of an adult and a very erect man who lies on the bed" (Kate Taylor, 1994), and interpretations of the deaths of Leslie Mahaffy and Kristen French. The gallery showing his work announced his paintings by stating that Langer was exploring the phenomenon of intimacy where it exists without the compensation of social or cultural consent.<br /><br />It is difficult to imagine this kind of crime being a problem in a small town like London, Ontario, but it is. Just recently, two men pleaded guilty to possessing child pornography, making obscene material, invitation to sexual touching, etc. Over 25 others, including a former municipal politician and a school principal, have been charged (one of the accused is HIV positive, and his victim tested positive as well). The two ringleaders, Gary Gramlick and Edward Jewell were discovered to be making pornographic movies in their homes when a bag of videotapes was found in a local river. The tapes were turned over to the police who in turn identified Gramlick and Jewell. It seems the two men tried to destroy the tapes when the new child pornography laws came into effect. Another 100 tapes were discovered in their apartments. The victims were all boys, many of which were street kids whose home lives were lacking. They were paid up to $50 a session.<br /><br /><strong>TYPES OF CHILD PORNOGRAPHY</strong><br />Child pornography, or "kiddie porn" as it is often called, can be broken down into two major types: erotica and pornography. Child pornography is that which is prohibited outright by law. It is some type of visual depiction of a child engaged in any form of sexual behavior.<br /><br />Types of pornography are:<br /><ul><li>explicit photographs </li><li>videotapes </li><li>films </li><li>magazines </li><li>computer disks (this has become very difficult for police with the Internet that allows people to - - - obtain almost anything from almost anywhere) </li></ul><p>Child erotica refers to material relating to children that functions as some kind of sexual instrument. This kind of material may not be illegal to have because it may only have a significant meaning to the pedophile. Some items included here are:</p><ul><li>toys/games </li><li>books/drawings </li><li>letters </li><li>fantasy writing </li><li>souvenirs </li><li>ordinary photographs </li></ul><p> </p><p>Child pornography can be broken down further. </p><p>It can be either homemade or it can be commercially produced. Whichever method is used, the market is very secretive. Homemade material often involves neighborhood kids who are manipulated and bribed, not fully realizing what they are doing. Much of this material is not distributed. It may be swapped with other pedophiles, but quite often it is merely for the owner's own use. Photographs are the most popular medium. This is likely because they are relatively easy to produce. In many cases, people who are sexually abusing children make them for keepsakes of their experiences with their child victims. The Badgely Report expressed concern over the use of videotapes because of the ease of which they can be copied. The homemade material is probably the most common type of child pornography.<br />Commercial material often involves runaway children who are older and need money to survive. This material is produced to be sold for profits. It is not as popular as the homemade material because it is more difficult to produce and distribute. Some of the names of commercial pornographic movies are: "Beginner's Luck," "Tender and Tight," and "Neighbor's Daughter."<br /></p><p><strong>TYPES OF OFFENDERS AND USES</strong><br />There are several classes of child pornography offenders from producers to distributors to users. Each link in the chain must be broken to effectively combat this abuse. </p><p>They are:</p><ol><li>Producers include those persons who employ, use or advertise for a minor to be a part of any kind of pornographic material. Many of these offenders are people who make their own material for their own use. These are the people who make the movies or the magazines.</li><li>Distributors include persons who sell, mail, loan, give, export, advertise or transport any obscene material. Many pedophile organizations, like the North American Man-Boy Love Association (NAMBLA), act as contact services for pedophiles to obtain child pornography.</li><li>Coercers are those persons who incite, bribe, persuade, or entice a child to be a part of any kind of pornographic material. These people are very good at what they do. They often give the child the attention he/she may be missing at home, or give them money so they can buy nice things. They are very manipulative.</li><li>Finally, there are the people who use this material. Now that the mere possession of this material is a crime, it will make it much easier for the police to lay charges against them. Eighty-seven percent of molesters of female children and 77% of molesters of male children admit to regular use of hard-core pornography. Clifford Olson was found to be in possession of nude photographs of young girls 2 years before he murdered 11 children in B.C. While he was on his murderous rampage, he carried with him a briefcase full of child pornography.<br /></li></ol><p>The main use of child pornography is to satisfy the sexual desires of pedophiles. This is often a prelude to future abuse. It can also lower the inhibitions of children; it relaxes the child in the pedophiles’ attempts to molest the child. It can be used as blackmail to force the child into continuing the relationship. And it can be used as an exchange medium for pedophiles, or for profit.<br /></p><p><strong>POLICING CHILD PORNOGRAPHY</strong><br />As mentioned earlier, child pornography is a highly secretive business. Therefore, it is not only very difficult for the police to catch the offenders, it is not uncommon for them to even be unaware that such crimes are being committed. Very few victims come forward for various reasons. The child pornography ring discovered in London was really discovered by accident. The police may never have found out about the ring if the offenders had not thrown the tapes into the river.</p><p><br />The Ontario Provincial Police have formed a special unit, Project "P", to specifically deal with child pornography offenses. Winnipeg police recently charged 8 people with circulating pornography on computer bulletin boards. The police will continue to randomly monitor the boards.</p><p><br />The greatest obstacle in the battle against child pornography is that a very small percentage of the population actually sees child pornography. It is not a public issue like murder or burglary. Therefore, many do not consider it to be an issue.<br />Another problem from an investigative point of view is that much of this material is homemade, and it is only used by the producer. Therefore, unless a victim comes forward, the police may never discover the truth. The identification of victims is often difficult because very often the victims are runaways, or they are simply not known to the police. Therefore, their ages may be difficult to prove.</p><p><br /><strong>THE INTERNET AND PORNOGRAPHY</strong><br />By far, the fastest growing technology used to produce and distribute child pornography is the Internet. Unfortunately, the solution to curbing this lucrative and illegal activity has proven increasingly difficult. Although Canadian laws are relatively clear on what kind of information is illegal, the issue of who can be held responsible for its distribution is not. Government authorities insist that the very structure of the Internet makes it impossible to monitor. Furthermore, arresting and convicting an Internet user on child pornography charges is equally difficult.<br />Although police departments are now investigating child pornography on the Internet, their investigations are seriously hampered by user anonymity. A large amount of pornographic material is sent anonymously for display on public bulletin boards and as a result, tracing a sender is a complicated process. The police investigation is hampered further by a lack of conventional evidence such as fingerprints or eyewitnesses. And since very few cases have gone to court in Canada, the rules of evidence and other legalities are left undefined. For example, how do you apply the terms "possession" or "distribution" to computers? If someone downloads a file depicting a child in a sexually explicit pose, are they guilty of possessing child pornography? If someone sends a personal e-mail message containing that same material, is that considered distribution? These are the kind of answers that have yet to be answered in courtrooms across Canada.</p><p><br />In January 1996, the U.S. Senate passed a federal law prohibiting the communication of "offensive" material on the Internet, as measured by "contemporary community standards". Under the Communications Decency Act, anyone convicted under this law would be subject to a fine of up to $250,000, or a period of imprisonment not exceeding two years. This law, however, was immediately challenged by civil libertarians, who argued that the law was unconstitutional. In the summer of 1997, only one year after the law was enacted, the United States Supreme Court found that the changes made to the Communications Decency Act were unconstitutional, and it was struck down by the court. Many feel that if a similar law is enacted in Canada, it will also be struck down as unconstitutional. (The Justice Minister has recently introduced new legislation in Canada on the distribution of child pornography on the Internet).<br />The controversy surrounding child pornography on the Internet has prompted some service providers to take action on their own. On July 3, 1996, iSTAR, Canada's largest Internet provider blocked user access to various material, including child pornography. In doing so, iSTAR deleted 35 newsgroups, including alt.sex.babies (alternative sex - babies) and alt.sex.fetish.tiny girls. Shortly after iSTAR took action, another service provider followed suit. Internet Connect Inc. of Edmonton pulled 15 newsgroups from their service that offered digital child pornography and bestiality.</p><p><br /><strong><span style="font-size:130%;">EFFECT OF PORNOGRAPHY ON THE VICTIMS</span></strong><br />The effects of this kind of abuse on children can be devastating. The harm has been compared to that of the damage caused by incest or sexual molestation. Children feel an overwhelming sense of guilt and shame. The knowledge that their images are being distributed to who knows where is very frightening.</p><p><br />Because the child's actions are reduced to a recording, the pornography may haunt him [or her] in future years, long after the original misdeed took place. A child who has posed for the camera must go through life knowing that the recording is circulating within the mass distribution system for child pornography." Shouvlin, "Preventing the Sexual Exploitation Of Children" (1981) "Children involved in pornography can be psychologically scarred and suffer emotional distress for life. They may see themselves as objects to be sold rather than people who are important." U.S. General Accounting Office, "Sexual Exploitation of Children" (1982)<br />Children who are victimized by child pornography often fall into the world of prostitution, and many grow up to be abusers themselves. Pornography has a direct relationship to child abuse. Pedophiles see their desires on video and this validates their feelings for them. This means that future abuse is more likely. Studies have shown that those who collect child pornography are more likely to be active abusers.</p><p><br /> </p><p><br /> </p>CLINIC FOR CHILDREN, we smile with youhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13937135211402900335noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7406455044074028187.post-53098498797309690172008-12-24T16:59:00.000-08:002008-12-24T17:03:29.002-08:00CHILDREN SEXUAL ABUSE ON LAW<div align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">LAW AND CHILDREN SEXUAL ABUSE</span></strong> </div><div align="center"> </div><div align="left"> </div>Provided by<br />DR WIDODO JUDARWANTO<br /><strong>FIGHT CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE AND PEDOPHILIA</strong><br />Yudhasmara Foundation<br />JL TAMAN BENDUNGAN ASAHAN 5 JAKARTA PUSAT, JAKARTA INDONESIA 10210<br />PHONE : (021) 70081995 – 5703646<br />email : <a href="mailto:judarwanto@gmail.com">judarwanto@gmail.com</a>,<br /><a href="http://pedophiliasexabuse.blogspot.com/">http://pedophiliasexabuse.blogspot.com/</a><br />.<br />.<br /><br /><br /><strong>PROBLEMS WITH PREVIOUS LAWS</strong><br />Prior to 1988, laws governing child sexual abuse did not reflect the reality of the situation. Some of the problems were as follows:<br /><ol><li>Gender bias - many offenses were only applicable to female victims and male offenders. The reality is that there are many young boys out there who are sexually abused, and they were not protected.</li><li>Limited range of sexual activity - many offenses only covered vaginal intercourse, and this did not encompass the many different types of sexual molestation, such as touching or fondling. Invitation was not an offence.</li><li>Requirements of previous chaste character - girls who had some previous (consensual) sexual experiences were not considered "of chaste character" and were not protected. A victim's sexual reputation could be used as a defence.</li><li>Time restrictions - the offence had to be prosecuted within a year of the offence. Many victims take many years to gather up the courage to report their victimization.</li></ol><br /><strong>CURRENT CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE LAWS<br /></strong>In 1988, changes were made to the Criminal Code in an effort to combat some of the above listed problems. As child sexual abuse does not always involve intercourse, changes were made to the law to include other sexual behaviour.<br />The following is a summary of the laws governing child sexual abuse in Canada:<br />Sexual interference<br />This section makes it an offence to touch a child under 14 years of age. The touching can be directly or indirectly, and can be with a body part or an object. The touching must be for a sexual purpose. The maximum punishment for this offence is 10 years.<br />Invitation to sexual touching<br />This section makes it an offence to invite, council or incite a child under 14 years of age to touch another for a sexual purpose. This touching can be direct or indirect, with a part of the body or an object. The maximum punishment for this offence is 10 years.<br /><br /><strong>Sexual exploitation </strong><br />This section makes it an affiance for an adult, in a position of trust or authority over a child, to invite sexual touching of a child between the ages of 14 and 18. This section is aimed specifically at individuals such as teachers, sports coaches or councilors. The maximum punishment for sexual exploitation is five years.<br /><br /><strong>Incest</strong><br />This section makes it an affiance to have sexual intercourse with a blood relation. A blood relation is defined as parent, brother, sister, grandparent, grandchild, half-brother and half-sister. To be convicted of this affiance, the offender must have had sexual intercourse (vaginal penetration) with an individual that was known to be a blood relative.<br /><br /><strong>Sexual assault</strong><br />This section is not aimed specifically at children. This is the legal term for 'rape'. In Canada we have three 'degrees' of sexual assault - sexual assault, sexual assault with a weapon, threats to a third part or causing bodily harm and aggravated sexual assault. Sexual assault is the intentional application of force, directly or indirectly, to another without their consent for sexual purposes. This section can include behavior such as unwanted touching, forcing an individual to touch another, assaults with a weapon, threatening to harm a third party, wounding an individual in the course of a sexual assault or endangering the life of an individual during the course of a sexual assault.<br /><br /><strong>Parole Conditions</strong><br />Anyone convicted of a sexual affiance involving children can be prohibited from frequenting daycare canter, school grounds, playgrounds, community centres, public parks or bathing areas where children are likely to be found. They are also prohibited from seeking or obtaining employment that involves a position of trust or authority over children. This ban can be up to a lifetime ban. The decision is made by the court whether or not there will be a ban and how long it will be. The maximum sentence is 2 years in prison.<br /><br /><strong>Peace Bonds</strong><br />Anyone can get Peace Bond against someone, this individual does not need to have a previous conviction, who they have a fear based on "reasonable grounds" will commit a sexual offence<br />against someone under 14 years of age. The child or children do not have to be named, and the Bond can be imposed for up to 1 year.<br /><br /><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">CONSENT ISSUES</span></strong><br />Consent is not an issue for children under 12 years of age. They cannot legally give their consent for any sexual act. Children aged 12 can only give their consent if their partner is less then 2 years older then they are. An accused cannot use the defence of consent if that person is in a position of trust or authority over the child. It is not a defence to this crime for the accused to say that he did not know the child's age. He/she must have taken all reasonable steps to ascertain the correct age.<br />For children who are legally able to consent to sexual activities, the accused is required to have taken reasonable steps to ascertain the victim's consent. Consent cannot be assumed based on the victim's silence.<br />Many argue that the age of consent is too low. A 14 year old should not have to deal with the issue of consent if he or she had been sexually assaulted. Fourteen is too young to be having sexual relations with adults.<br /><br /><strong>CHILDREN AS WITNESSES</strong><br />There is much concern in the criminal justice system surrounding the testimony of young people. Many people have serious concerns about allowing children to testify, especially in sexual abuse/assault cases. One of the concerns is that children cannot tell the difference between truth and fantasy, and that the abuse may be a fantasy. Another concern is that children will lie to get back at a parent or someone else. This relates to the belief that many parents coach children to lie, such as in the case of a custody dispute.<br /><br />Children often find it very difficult to testify in open courtrooms. It is not difficult to imagine that children would be very nervous and intimidated in a courtroom atmosphere and setting. This kind of testimony is often embarrassing for children to talk about in private, let alone to disclose to a courtroom full of strangers.<br /><br />Children also have troubles with specifics, such as dates, and this can lead to problems in the laying of charges. Defence lawyers really press the witness for a specific period of time. The Crown prosecutor can help by asking the child if the abuse happened around Christmas time, or<br />close to some other significant event in the child's life. It may be hard to defend oneself if the victim cannot give you specifics.<br /><br />Children may be afraid of retaliation from the accused since threats are often a part of the accused's attempts to keep the abuse a secret. A support person or relative can be permitted to sit near the child while he/she is testifying. Sometimes booster seats are used, children are permitted to bring in a toy or blanket, and props such as dolls and drawings can be used to assist the child.<br /><br />Judges must be satisfied that a young victim sufficiently understands that he/she must tell the truth, and that the child knows the difference between the truth and a lie, and right and wrong. For example, the judge may ask the child to explain in their own words what a lie is. Instead of taking an oath to tell the truth, young children may just have to promise to tell the truth. For a witness who is under 14 years of age, a judge must conduct an inquiry into the child's ability to give sworn testimony.<br /><br />A report by the Ontario Law Reform Commission says that, "children are as trustworthy as adults when they testify in court." The report looked at studies done over the past twenty years. It says that "many of our legal rules are based on the fact that children don't have these capabilities (to testify). It's time to revise these archaic rules."<br /><br /><strong>USE OF SCREENS/VIDEOTAPE</strong><br />Children under 18 years of age can be permitted to testify behind a screen or through a video display setup outside the courtroom. The judge must first be convinced such an arrangement would be necessary to obtain a full account of the child's evidence. The accused and his/her lawyer must be permitted to hear the evidence and make answer to it. Screens are much more likely than closed circuit televisions, but some people feel that televisions are better because the jury would infer that the child is afraid of the courtroom and not necessarily the accused. The legalities of the use of screens and videos has been questioned, but as one court put it,<br />"The right to face one's accusers is not in this day and age to be taken in the literal sense...(it is) simply the right of an accused person to hear the case against him and to make answer and defence to it..."<br /><br />The reality is that screens and closed circuit televisions are used in few cases. One reason for this is that few courtrooms have access to screens or televisions.<br />For cases where the accused has chosen to represent him/herself, a judge is permitted to appoint a counsel for the sole purpose of cross-examining the child victim since it could be very traumatic or intimidating for the accused to cross-examine the child.<br />Young victims can also be videotaped in advance of the trial, and this tape can then be played at the trial. However, the child will still have to take the stand to "adopt the contents of the videotape," or to testify that what is contained on the tape is the truth. The child may have to be cross-examined also since the defence must be able to answer the charges.<br />The rules governing the use of these types of tapes are very strict to ensure they have not been edited in any way. For example, a clock must be visible to the camera at all times to prove that the tape was not stopped or paused for any reason. Tapes must be made as soon as possible after the abuse has been reported.<br /><br /><strong>RECENT COMPLAINT</strong><br />In the past it was a requirement by law that a complaint of sexual abuse must be reported within one year of the offence. Now that the realities of sexual abuse have come to light, and we realize that it often takes years for people to build up the courage to report such abuse, the law has been changed. There is no longer a requirement that the complaint be recent. The credibility of the complaint should not be affected by the time it took to make the charge. However, as is often the case, the law is different from reality. The reality of it is that many victims are still questioned in court about why they didn't tell someone sooner so the abuse would stop. In this way, it is no surprise that many victims feel worse after reporting because of the treatment they receive on cross-examination.<br /><br />Cases where there has been a delay in reporting are often difficult to prosecute. Judges often have difficulty convicting in such cases. The following remarks made by a judge involving a sexual abuse case, where the man had already pleaded guilty, really emphasize that the problem of recent complaint still exist,<br />"I have difficulty accepting that the plaintiff would sit and say nothing for 20 minutes and 15 minutes respectively while the accused did what she said he did to her, and never bring the subject up for nine years."<br />The judge then acquitted the man in spite of the fact that the accused had admitted guilt.<br /><br /><strong>CORROBORATION</strong><br />The law has also been changed with respect to corroboration. It used to be that a person could not be convicted of a sexual offence unless there was some kind of corroborating evidence to back up the child's testimony. This is no longer the case. An accused can be convicted on the evidence of the child alone. This does not mean that the court has to convict on that evidence, only that it has the option to do so. The prosecution still must prove the case beyond a reasonable doubt, so it is important to gather as much evidence as possible.<br />Most cases of sexual abuse are committed in a private setting where only the offender and the victim are present. Since many cases are not reported right away, there may be little physical evidence. Cases involving no other evidence than the child's testimony are difficult to prove, and often result in an acquittal. The fact that the child has information of a sexual nature in which he/she should not have is a good indicator that they are telling the truth. Many judges still comment on the risks of convicting an accused solely on the child's testimony. Therefore, the fact that corroboration is no longer required is good, it does not solve all of the problems of getting more convictions.<br /><br /><strong>PAST SEXUAL HISTORY<br /></strong>The rules governing the admissibility of past sexual history evidence were made more strict in 1992. For young children, this is probably not even an issue, but for older kids, it may be. The relevancy of any such evidence is decided upon by a judge. Basically, this kind of evidence is not admissible. Reputation evidence is also not admissible. The introduction of evidence of past sexual history for the purpose of portraying the victim as more likely to consent or less worthy of belief is not permitted.<br /><br /><strong>PUBLICATION BANS</strong><br />A victim of a sexual offence, or any child victim can have a publication ban put in place to prevent the release of their identity. For cases where the release of the accused person's name may indicate the identity of the child victims, a ban can be placed on that of the accused person as well. The publication ban is the decision of the child or his/her parents. It is not automatic. The judge may also remove the public from the courtroom if the child so desires.CLINIC FOR CHILDREN, we smile with youhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13937135211402900335noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7406455044074028187.post-27718023246470513522008-12-24T16:49:00.000-08:002008-12-24T16:58:12.886-08:00LAW : CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE ADN PEDOPHILIA<div align="center"><br /><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">Sexual Child Abuse Law Index</span></strong> </div><div align="center"> </div><div align="left"> </div><div align="left">Provided by<br />DR WIDODO JUDARWAN</div><div align="left"><strong>TOFIGHT CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE AND PEDOPHILIA<br /></strong>Yudhasmara Foundation<br />JL TAMAN BENDUNGAN ASAHAN 5 JAKARTA PUSAT, JAKARTA INDONESIA 10210<br />PHONE : (021) 70081995 – 5703646<br />email : <a href="mailto:judarwanto@gmail.com">judarwanto@gmail.com</a>,<br /><a href="http://pedophiliasexabuse.blogspot.com/">http://pedophiliasexabuse.blogspot.com/</a></div><div align="left">The legal age for young people to consent to have sex is 16. This applies to heterosexual and homosexual sex.<br />Although it is technically illegal for two fifteen year olds to engage in sexual activity, the <a href="http://www.crimeinfo.org.uk/dictionary/index.jsp#69627366569607174">Home Office</a> has stated “the law is not intended to prosecute mutually agreed teenage sexual activity between two young people of a similar age, unless it involves abuse or exploitation.”<br />And young people still have the right to confidential advice on contraception, pregnancy and abortion even if they are under 16.<br />The government recently reformed and amended the law relating to child sexual abuse in the Sexual Offences Act of 2003. The offences are now split according to age.</div><div align="left"><br /><strong>Under 13s</strong><br />All penetrative sex (including penetration of the mouth) of a child aged 12 or younger is classified as rape and carries a maximum penalty of life in prison. A child this old is considered to be incapable of legally giving consent.<br />Other offences include assault by penetration (with an object or part of the body), sexual assault (any kind of sexual touching), and causing or inciting a child to engage in sexual activity (this could include making a child strip, or promising them rewards for sexual behaviour). <br />Assault by penetration has a maximum penalty of life in prison; sexual assault and causing or inciting a child under 13 to engage in sexual activity both have maximum penalties of 14 years in prison.</div><div align="left"><br /><strong>13-15 Year Olds</strong><br />The following are some examples of the offences where the <a href="http://www.crimeinfo.org.uk/dictionary/index.jsp#69122977910292498">offender</a> is aged 18 or over (but where the sexual activity takes place between someone below the age of 18 and someone under 16, the offences are similar but carry lower sentences).<br />Sexual activity with a child<br />This law covers all intercourse, other penetration or sexual touching of a child and carries a maximum sentence of 14 years in prison.<br />Causing or inciting a child to engage in sexual activity<br />This covers causing or persuading a child to engage in any sexual activity, including sexual acts with someone else, or making a child strip or masturbate. Again, the maximum sentence is 14 years in prison.<br />Engaging in sexual activity in the presence of a child<br />Under this law, it is an offence to intentionally engage in sexual activity when you know that you can be seen by a child, or you believe or intend that they can see you, and where you do this in order to get sexual gratification from the fact that they may be watching you.<br />Causing a child to watch a sexual act<br />This makes it an offence to intentionally cause a child to watch someone else taking part in sexual activity for the purpose of your own sexual gratification.<br />Meeting a child following sexual grooming<br />Under this new law, if you are over 18 and have communicated with a child under 16 at least twice (including communication by phone or internet) it is an offence to meet them, or travel to meet them, anywhere in the world with the intention of committing one of the offences above.<br />Arranging or facilitating a child sex offence<br />This makes it an offence to knowingly arrange or carry out an action in any part of the world which will lead to one of the offences above being committed. </div><div align="left"><br /><strong>16 and 17 Year Olds</strong><br />Since most sexual abuse of children takes place in the home, the law now makes it an offence for any child under 18 to engage in sexual activity with a ‘family member’. <br />Family member now includes foster family, step family and, in some instances, lodgers.<br />Also, it is an offence for a person working in a position of trust (e.g. a teacher, Connexions Advisor, nurse or carer) to engage in sexual activity with any child under 18. In other cases that age limit would be 16.</div><div align="left"> </div><div align="center"> </div><div align="left"><a href="http://pedophiliasexabuse.blogspot.com/"><span style="font-size:85%;"></span></a> </div><div align="left"> </div><br /><a href="http://prevent-abuse-now.com/law3.htm">LAW Page One ~ Sexual Abuse Laws</a><br />Section I: Sexual Abuse Laws<br /><br />Section II: Sexual Exploitation Laws<br />Section III: Report Laws<br />Section IV: Offender Register Laws <br />Section V: Additional Resources<br /><br /><a href="http://prevent-abuse-now.com/help10ab.htm">Reporting child abuse: How and where</a>. <a href="http://prevent-abuse-now.com/alaska.htm">Controversial research on impact of adult-child sex</a>. <a href="http://prevent-abuse-now.com/news.htm#Search">Search Headline News</a><br /><a href="http://prevent-abuse-now.com/law.htm#top">Top of Page</a> ~ <a href="http://prevent-abuse-now.com/law.htm#End">End of Page</a> <br /><br />Page Two <br /><a href="http://prevent-abuse-now.com/law3a.htm">Law Page Two ~ Internet Crimes Against Children</a> US Justice Department's Computer Crime Initiative Reporting Internet Crimes US Customs Cash Rewards Protection of Children From Sexual Predators Act of 1998 Brief Overview of Pedophiles on the Web Internet Crimes In the News Child Safety Online: Internet Online Summit You Can Help: Clean Up the Web Research and Statistics on Child Pornography<br /><a href="http://prevent-abuse-now.com/law.htm#top">Top of Page</a> ~ <a href="http://prevent-abuse-now.com/law.htm#End">End of Page</a> <br /><br />Page Three <br />LAW Page Three ~ Archive of Abuse Laws<a href="http://prevent-abuse-now.com/law1.htm">Section I: Archive of Abuse Laws</a> Patient Abuse Prevention Act (S1122) Child Protection Act of 1997 (HR2194) Child Abuse Accountability Act (HR1142 ERISA) Safe Havens for Children Act of 1997 (S1129)Also see ~ <a href="http://prevent-abuse-now.com/law2ac.htm">Protection of Children From Sexual Predators Act of 1998</a> <a href="http://prevent-abuse-now.com/who.htm">Volunteers for Children Act, providing for fingerprint checks</a><a href="http://prevent-abuse-now.com/law2.htm">Section II: Legislative Archives</a> Alaska House Resolution 36 rejects adult-child sex research Delaware Sex Offender ID Driver's License (04/98) California Law Targets Out-of-State Sex Offenders (8/97) Illinois Legislation Targets Sex Offenders (7/97) Nevada Passes Child Protection Bill (7/97) Connecticut Seeks to Model Kansas Law (7/97) NJ Extends Megan's Law Mentally Ill Provision (06/98)<br /><a href="http://prevent-abuse-now.com/law.htm#top">Top of Page</a> ~ <a href="http://prevent-abuse-now.com/law.htm#End">End of Page</a> <br /><br />Page Four <br />LAW Page Four ~ Archive of Court Rulings<a href="http://prevent-abuse-now.com/law2aa.htm">Section I: Megan's Law (State Offender Registry Laws)</a> Supreme Court Upholds Kansas Extended Sentences (06/97) Appeals Court Upholds N.J.

The children are more often of the opposite sex (about twice as often) and are typically 13 years or age or younger; they may be within or outside the pedophile's family.

Drawing from biological and psychological research, this major reference explores the major theories about orientation; summarizes recent developments in genetic and neuroanatomic research; considers the role of social institutions in shaping current beliefs; and discusses the social construction of gender, sexuality, and sexual identity. The handbook also describes sexual dysfunctions in ton-clinical populations, clinical disorders, and important social issues. Experts address the continuing controversy over the feasibility of altering sexual orientation; practical concerns such as disability and illness; new developments in treating sexual and personal problems within heterosexual and homosexual populations; and perspectives about sexual deviations today. This handbook is designed for the use of educators, students, and researchers in the social and behavioral sciences.<br /><a class="wsCmdLink" onclick="questia.Events.notify(this,'page.reader','navpane.open',28670041);

Divided into two main parts, Part One presents a critical analysis of the key conceptions of human sexuality, including:* the view of sex as bound up with procreation and marriage* the romantic approach to sex* the understanding of sex as body language* the hedonist or â¬~plainâ¬" sex view - the traditional distinction between natural and unnatural sex, and the notion of sexual perversion.Part Two discusses the most pertinent issues in sexual morality, such as monogamy, adultery, prostitution, rape, homosexuality, paedophilia and sexual harassment.In this stimulating and often controversial book, the author argues for a plainer view of sex and demonstrates that many of the prohibitions that make up conventional sexual morality cannot withstand critical scrutiny and should therefore be rejected. He claims that there are no sexual ethics, since sex has no particular moral significance.<br /><a class="wsCmdLink" onclick="questia.Events.notify(this,'page.reader','navpane.open',108229464); return false;" href="http://www.questia.com/read/108229464?title=Title%20Page">Title Page </a><br /><a class="wsCmdLink" onclick="questia.Events.notify(this,'page.reader','navpane.open',108229466); return false;" href="http://www.questia.com/read/108229466?title=Contents">Contents </a><br /><a class="wsCmdLink" onclick="questia.Events.notify(this,'page.reader','navpane.open',108229470); return false;" href="http://www.questia.com/read/108229470?title=Preface%20and%20Acknowledgments">Preface and Acknowledgments </a><br /><a class="wsCmdLink" onclick="questia.Events.notify(this,'page.reader','navpane.open',108229472); return false;" href="http://www.questia.com/read/108229472?title=Abbreviations%20Used%20in%20the%20Notes%20and%20Bibliography">Abbreviations Used in the Notes and Bibliography </a><br /><a class="wsCmdLink" onclick="questia.Events.notify(this,'page.reader','navpane.open',108229474); return false;" href="http://www.questia.com/read/108229474?title=I%3a%20The%20Basics">I: The Basics </a><br /><a class="wsCmdLink" onclick="questia.Events.notify(this,'page.reader','navpane.open',108229476); return false;" href="http://www.questia.com/read/108229476?title=1%3a%20Introduction">1: Introduction </a><br /><a class="wsCmdLink" onclick="questia.Events.notify(this,'page.reader','navpane.open',108229482); return false;" href="http://www.questia.com/read/108229482?title=2%3a%20Sex%20and%20Procreation">2: Sex and Procreation </a><br /><a class="wsCmdLink" onclick="questia.Events.notify(this,'page.reader','navpane.open',108229494); return false;" href="http://www.questia.com/read/108229494?title=3%3a%20Sex%20and%20Love">3: Sex and Love </a><br /><a class="wsCmdLink" onclick="questia.Events.notify(this,'page.reader','navpane.open',108229507); return false;" href="http://www.questia.com/read/108229507?title=4%3a%20Sex%20as%20Language">4: Sex as Language </a><br /><a class="wsCmdLink" onclick="questia.Events.notify(this,'page.reader','navpane.open',108229514); return false;" href="http://www.questia.com/read/108229514?title=5%3a%20The%20Pleasure%20of%20Sex">5: The Pleasure of Sex </a><br /><a class="wsCmdLink" onclick="questia.Events.notify(this,'page.reader','navpane.open',108229523); return false;" href="http://www.questia.com/read/108229523?title=6%3a%20Sexual%20Perversion">6: Sexual Perversion </a><br /><a class="wsCmdLink" onclick="questia.Events.notify(this,'page.reader','navpane.open',108229540); return false;" href="http://www.questia.com/read/108229540?title=II%3a%20The%20Issues">II: The Issues </a><br /><a class="wsCmdLink" onclick="questia.Events.notify(this,'page.reader','navpane.open',108229542); return false;" href="http://www.questia.com/read/108229542?title=7%3a%20Marriage%2c%20Adultery%2c%20Jealousy">7: Marriage, Adultery, Jealousy </a><br /><a class="wsCmdLink" onclick="questia.Events.notify(this,'page.reader','navpane.open',108229561); return false;" href="http://www.questia.com/read/108229561?title=8%3a%20Prostitution">8: Prostitution </a><br /><a class="wsCmdLink" onclick="questia.Events.notify(this,'page.reader','navpane.open',108229583); return false;" href="http://www.questia.com/read/108229583?title=9%3a%20Homosexuality">9: Homosexuality </a><br /><a class="wsCmdLink" onclick="questia.Events.notify(this,'page.reader','navpane.open',108229606); return false;" href="http://www.questia.com/read/108229606?title=10%3a%20Pedophilia">10: Pedophilia </a><br /><a class="wsCmdLink" onclick="questia.Events.notify(this,'page.reader','navpane.open',108229617); return false;" href="http://www.questia.com/read/108229617?title=11%3a%20Sexual%20Harassment%20and%20Rape">11: Sexual Harassment and Rape </a><br /><a class="wsCmdLink" onclick="questia.Events.notify(this,'page.reader','navpane.open',108229640); return false;" href="http://www.questia.com/read/108229640?title=12%3a%20Concluding%20Remarks">12: Concluding Remarks </a><br /><a class="wsCmdLink" onclick="questia.Events.notify(this,'page.reader','navpane.open',108229649); return false;" href="http://www.questia.com/read/108229649?title=Notes">Notes </a><br /><a class="wsCmdLink" onclick="questia.Events.notify(this,'page.reader','navpane.open',108229666); return false;" href="http://www.questia.com/read/108229666?title=Select%20Bibliography">Select Bibliography </a><br /><a class="wsCmdLink" onclick="questia.Events.notify(this,'page.reader','navpane.open',108229673); return false;" href="http://www.questia.com/read/108229673?title=Index">Index </a><br /></li><li><a class="topicTitles" href="http://www.questia.com/read/79891745?title=Erotic%20Innocence%3a%20The%20Culture%20of%20Child%20Molesting">Erotic Innocence: The Culture of Child Molesting</a> by James R.

The reader is drawn to understand and even identify with the people experiencing sexual disturbance. This work is developed around a case study format, with chapters on specific psychosexual disturbances. In addition to presenting the treatment process as it is formulated in the mind of the therapist, Doyle offers a blueprint for therapy that makes specific treatment possible for clients with similar disorders.<br /><a class="wsCmdLink" onclick="questia.Events.notify(this,'page.reader','navpane.open',6829304);

There are few national statistics on child sexual abuse in Indonesia. SEXUAL ABUSE is may be one of many social and child health problem in Indonesia! The consequences of sexual abuse can include the following: </div><div><br /></div><div><br />* Criminal behavior * Prostitution<br />* Gastrointestinal problems * Panic disorder </div><div>* Chronic pain * Picky etaers or anorexia<br />* Neurological disease * Smoking<br />* Obsessive-compulsive * Sleep disturbances<br />* Marital instability * Bulimia<br />* Headacehes and Migraines * Trigger Allergy disease<br />* Suicide * Heart disease<br />* Diabetes * Fibromyalgia<br />* Depression * Drug abuse </div><div><br /></div><div><br /><strong><span style="font-size:180%;color:#ff0000;">The Fight Child Sexual Abuse and Pedophilia</span></strong> support by Yudhasmara Foundation. We are a group of idealistic people working to save and heal abused children and exploited children. To oppose sexual abuse and sex trafficking and change society where this is a common practice. We challenge people of good will to act and help change society and encourage the authorities to respond and implement laws, do justice and protect the innocent and bring the guilty to justice and repentance by information and education. </div><div> </div><div><span style="font-size:180%;color:#ff0000;"><strong>The Fight Child Sexual Abuse and Pedophilia</strong></span> primary goal is to raise awareness of the health and social problems caused by child sexual abuse or pedophilia and to remove society’s stigma on this issue so that survivors will seek help and avoid the long term consequences of their trauma. This will be done by networking with local and national person, organization and media. Long-range plans are underway to establish a national awareness day and year in Congress. The future also plans to link treatment centers nationally and establish funding for university-based research in this area.<br /></div><div><br /><strong><span style="font-size:180%;color:#ff0000;">The Fight Child Sexual Abuse and Pedophilia</span></strong> is to enable to make information and education by networking, education and spirit that are dedicated to helping survivors of sexual abuse lasting impact on Indonesian Children. In Indonesia Child sexual abuse is largely a hidden crime, so it is difficult to estimate the number of people who are sexually abused at some time during their childhood (the prevalence of child sexual abuse).

The Indonesian version of this report was published soon. Mohamman farid, the author of this report has given his consent to this extracted version.</div><div align="justify"><br /><strong>Child Prostitution</strong><br />Child prostitution in Indonesia is increasing and seems to be widespread. In Java, for example, child prostitution is reported to cover the whole of island from east to west, from the metropolitan areas to the peripheral towns. In Greater Jakarta, child prostitution is evident in some public parks, the streets, plazas, cafes, and discotheques, as in certain brothels within the authorised red light district and in some hotels. The involvement of girls of elementary or junior high school age in covert prostitution is also identified</div><div align="justify"><br />The extent of child prostitution in Indonesia if often underestimated, because of a number of factors. Firstly there is confusion with the definitions of a 'child' and prostitution'. In Indonesia, a married person of whatever age is considered - legally and culturally - to be no longer a child. This has rsulted in much confusion as authorities, parents and society in general do not consider the prostitution of wives or windows aged below 18 in anyway a manifestation of child prostitution.</div><div align="justify"><br />Aside from the official stance that renders prostitution outside authorised complexes illegal, the prevailing presumption among the general society, which considers prostitution as immoral and thus to be kept out of the public agenda, has pushed the issue further out of sight. Given the social stigma, children are generally anxious about their involvement being discovered, particularly by people close to them. They operate clandestinely in small groups, using secret codes, which are changed immediately when publicly disclosed. As was reported recently, of 100 young females interviewed, aged 12-19 years who were involved in such a covert prostitution, 82 claimed that their parents would not find out. They screen potential clients, prefer to be picked upin cars to avoid being suspected by their families and neighbors. Electronic communication devices such as cellular phones and engage in. Thus, there are reasons to suspect that the actual prevelance of children involved in the underground prostitution may be higher that any observer sensed.</div><div align="justify"><br />Bearing these factors in mind and having examined every piece of available information, an initial moderate estimate of the prevalence of child prostitution in Indonesia is that around 30 percent of the total sex workers in the country are aged under 18 years. This constitutes around 40,000 to over 150,000 based on different estimates of the number of sex workers.<br />Trafficking of Children for Sexual Purposes & Child Pornography.<br />Reports indicate that the routes for trafficking children, either domestic or international trafficking, appear to be the same as those transporting adult women. The only case where the routes may have been developed exclusively for child sexual trafficking are those from Bali to some unidentified international destination(s) involving an American, an Australian, and a French citizen.</div><div align="justify"><br />Another form of child sexual trafficking is taking place through matching agents. This seems to be particular to West Kalimantan where Indonesian females including those aged under 18 are offered the opportunity to marry Taiwanese or Hong Kong-Chinese. Around 40 females are sent to Taiwan and Hong Kong monthly. Some of them arrive to a happy family life, but others are reported to have faced forced marriages or were drawn into prostitution.</div><div align="justify"><br />Child pornography probably occurs on a lesser scale than other forms of commercial sexual exploitation of children (CSEC). To date, only one case has been uncovered and reported in the media, involving boys who were sexually molested on Lombok. However, as revealed by local resource persons, at least in Surabaya and Ujung Pandang the use of sex workers including under-aged ones for visual pornography is not unusual. Additionally, a prostituted child during an interview (case study) claimed that besides knowing that some of her friends were used in the production of such pornography, she herself was often urged by some local journalists to be photographed in this way. She also claimed that one customer made a video recording of himself and her engaged in sexual activity. Finally, three local homepages with international web links have been identified as exclusive servers of pornography, in which figures suspected to be teenagers are involved (website surfing).</div><div align="justify"><br />Whilst the underlying factor is undoubtedly poverty, the direct factors pushing them into prostitution are attributed to early sexual experience including sex abuse, early marriage, being lured by friends or relatives already involved in prostitution, or being enticed by agents. Some others are probably motivated more by a consumerist life style.<br />Besides their vulnerability to drug abuses, sex workers are at most risk of contracting STDs including HIV/AIDS. It normally takes 6-12 months before they acquire adequate knowledge of such risks and become accustomed to using contraceptive preventive aids. They usually learn about certain medicines to treat VD, initially from their senior counterparts. Only after having contracted infections do they then become more cautious of these diseases. Likewise, the segment to which the sex workers belong determines the probable incidence of STDs. The higher the class, the lower the likelihood of getting infected, as they have more access to medical services.</div><div align="justify"><br /><strong>Gender Dimensions</strong><br />The victims of child sexual abuse and CSEC are predominantly female. With child sexual abuse, 13 mass media agencies indicated that the number of boy victims increased between 1994 and 1996. However, of the total cases recorded during those years, the proportion of girl victims was as high as 93.5 per cent. In the case of CSEC, there are obviously more girls than boys involved in child prostitution, whilst not a single report on sexual trafficking of boys was found despite a relatively large number of reports concerning the trafficking of girls. Male children however, are reportedly found among the victims of child pornography.</div><div align="justify"><br /><strong>Socio-cultural Factors<br /></strong>Certain cultural beliefs have been identified as causing child sexual abuse. These include the belief that magical power is gained - through either heterosexual or homosexual intercourse with children. Such beliefs have even become institutionalised within certain social settings, and thus child sexual exploitation is socio-culturally legitimised and reinforced. The practice of nggemblak by warok, in the district of Ponorogo in East Java, provides a good example. It is believed that having boy concubines (called gemblak) is necessary to sustain and increase the magical power of warok, and having more gemblak gives a warok higher social status. As it shows that he can afford to take care of the economic necessities of more boys and their families as well. Likewise, the belief that having sexual intercourse with children is rejuvenating obviously gives a pretext to the demand for both non-commercial and CSEC.</div><div align="justify"><br /><strong>Child Labourers and their Risks</strong><br />Whilst street children are obviously vulnerable to both sexual abuse and CSEC, child labourers are also at high risk of such abuses. In this regard, it is worth remembering the cases of under-ageci migrant workers whose ages are falsified. Femalemigrant workers are highly vulnerable to the risk of becoming victims of sex abuse; the children smuggled as migrant workers must be equally at risk. Similarly, girls whose mothers are away as migrant workers and may thus be neglected may also be at risk of sex abuse.</div><div align="justify"><br /><strong>Lack of Educational, Vocational & Employment Opportunities</strong><br />An inability to afford schooling pushes children into further risk of sex abuse, since they are more likely to be exposed to harmful envirom-nents. Schools, at least, provide a somewhat safer envirom-nent for children. A lack of education also means less opportunity to gain vocational skills, fewer job opportunities, forcing some children into commercial sex as a means of earning money.</div><div align="justify"><br /><strong>Poverty, Rural-urban Migration and Consumerism</strong><br />Poverty can result in the sale of children by their own parents for commercial sexual purposes. The saie of children, which is related to rural-urban migration, was found (investigative interview). Children of poor families, by nature of their poverty, are in general less likely to be protected and thus face a higher risk of commercial sexual exploitation. In other words, poverty creates the necessary conditions for pushing children to become victim of C SEC. Aside from poverty, consumerist life style has also been documented as enticing children, particularly those living in metropolitan areas, to become involved in prostitution prematurely.</div><div align="justify"><br /><strong>Sexual Abuse</strong><br />A WHO study found that 61 per cent of street walkers had been abused sexually during their childhood. Likewise, of the 13 prostituted girls interviewed, seven admitted having been sexually abused at the age of 11 - 1 5 years. Clearly indicating that child sex abuse results in the abused child becoming involved in child prostitution. Moreover, having been involved in prostitution, the girls are put at risk of becoming victims of child sexual trafficking or pornography. Althouch the linear pattern may not always be the case, the indications suggest that generally those sexually abused end up in CSEC.</div><div align="justify"><br /><strong>Premature Sexual Experience, Arranged or Early Marriage</strong><br />Premature sexual experience is also likely to put girls at risk of CSEC, as all but one of the prostituted girls interviewed in Medan, Semarang, Surabaya and Manado admitted to having had such experience, including sexual abuse, prior to getting lured into prostitution.<br />The practice of early marriage is certainly another important factor contributing to CSEC. In Java marriages can be arranged when the girls are at a very young age. In the district of Indramayu, there are at least six kinds of cheap and easy wedding ceremonies, which in the local context are equally legitimate. Early marriage generally carries a high risk of separation, and young women separated from their husbands lose the social and economic legitimacy to go back and live under the custody of their parents. Given their minimum education amidst the lack of alternative job opportunities, prostitution may become their only alternative.</div><div align="justify"><br /><strong>Demand from Tourism Industry and Paedophiles</strong><br />It is predicted that Indonesia will become an alternative target for child sex tourists and international paedophiles rings. There are at least three reasons to support this prediction. First, the widespread prevalence of HIV/AIDS in former child sex destinations such as Thailand and the Philippines has made child sex tourists look for safer destinations. Second, increased awareness among NGOs and other sections of the civil society in those countries have successfully pressured their governments to take a tougher stand against CSEC, particularly against child sex tourists. Third - as promotion of tourism in Indonesia is on going, and is targeted to become a significant foreign exchange earner for Indonesia - the climate is likely to welcome any tourist, including child sex exploiters.</div><div align="justify"><br /><strong>Today's Victim, Future Exploiter</strong><br />Child victims of sex abuse and victims of CSEC are more likely to become potential exploiters. Children who have been caught up in the web of CSEC as a consequence of physical, emotional or sexual abuse, particularly when they come from substance abusing dysfunctional families are unlikely to have suitable adult models of parenting and caring to draw upon. Under these conditions they will be at great risk of perpetuating the behavioural cycle of physical, emotional or sexual abuse to their offspring. In this way, the pathways into the intergenerational patterns of CSEC and sex abuse are constructed.</div>CLINIC FOR CHILDREN, we smile with youhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13937135211402900335noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7406455044074028187.post-65275793887834909842008-12-21T08:36:00.000-08:002008-12-21T09:11:49.786-08:00NEW AND REPORT PEDOPHILIA<p align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">PEDOPHILIA IN THE NEWYORK DAILY NEWS</span></strong> </p><p align="center">.</p><p align="center"> </p><p align="left"><span style="font-size:85%;">Provided by<br />DR WIDODO JUDARWANTO</span></p><p align="left"><span style="font-size:85%;"><strong><span style="font-size:130%;">FIGHT CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE AND PEDOPHILIA</span></strong><br />Yudhasmara Foundation<br />JL TAMAN BENDUNGAN ASAHAN 5 JAKARTA PUSAT, JAKARTA INDONESIA 10210<br />PHONE : (021) 70081995 – 5703646<br />email : </span><a href="mailto:judarwanto@gmail.com"><span style="font-size:85%;">judarwanto@gmail.com</span></a><span style="font-size:85%;">,<br /></span><a href="http://pedophiliasexabuse.blogspot.com/"><span style="font-size:85%;">http://pedophiliasexabuse.blogspot.com/</span></a></p><ol><li><a href="http://www.nydailynews.com/archives/ny_local/2004/07/11/2004-07-11_no_kid_gloves_on_pedophilia.html">NO KID GLOVES ON PEDOPHILIA</a>NO KID GLOVES ON PEDOPHILIA.

Pirro. Prosecutors said that last August, the woman, Wanda Green, 18, of Yonkers, and another roommate subjected their 15-year-old roommate to forcible sexual contact for hours at St. Vincent's Westchester Hospital in Harrison. The victim, who has severe developmental disabilities, was spending her first night away from her parents. Mrs. Pirro said the plea was accepted to spare the victim and her family the trauma of reliving the crime in court. Ms. Green is to be sentenced Nov. 1 for the crime, a felony punishable by up to seven years in state prison. The other roommate, 15, pleaded guilty earlier.

And this abnormal stress response, the researchers found, appears especially pronounced in women who also have symptoms of clinical depression. When exposed to mild stress induced in a laboratory setting, women in the study who suffered from depression and had a history of childhood abuse showed levels of ACTH, a hormone secreted by the pituitary gland in response to stress, six times as high as those in women without such histories. They also had higher levels of cortisol, another stress hormone, and higher heart rates than women who had not been abused. Women with a history of abuse who were not depressed also showed hypersensitivity to the stress, but to a less extreme degree.<br /></div></li><li><div align="left"><a href="http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9B0CE2DD143CF935A2575AC0A96F958260">No Apology to Orphans, Quebec Church Says</a><br />September 16, 1999 - Foreign Desk - 380 Words<br />Roman Catholic Church officials here said today that there would be no apology or compensation for the aging Quebec orphans who say they suffered years of abuse decades ago while under the care of the church.

Even so, the threat posed by an unknown predator terrifies American families the most. That is the reason for the community-notification provision that is now part of Federal law -- and for the New Jersey bills that inspired it. The nine-bill package known as Megan's law, signed by Gov. Christine Todd Whitman of New Jersey this week, contains some of the nation's most stringent restrictions on sex offenders. Community-notification laws have been struck down as unconstitutional in five states, but upheld in Washington State. Perhaps New Jersey's can surmount any legal challenges that are almost certain to come its way. But however much it appeases the genuinely righteous anger of those appalled by the death of 7-year-old Megan Kanka last summer, allegedly at the hands of a twice-convicted sex offender named Jesse Timmendequas, Megan's law may not be the protection its supporters think it is.<br /></div></li><li><div align="left"><a href="http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9900E5DD133BF932A05756C0A962958260">A Debate Over Bulimia and Abuse</a><br />May 31, 1994 - By DANIEL GOLEMAN - Science Desk - 540 Words<br />WHILE an earlier generation of therapists was criticized for minimizing the lasting psychological impact of their patients' childhood traumas, a current crop of therapists is coming under attack for telling patients that their symptoms indicate they must have suffered a childhood trauma, which they have buried. If the patient cannot come up with such a memory, these therapists help them out with methods that include hypnosis, visualization and even sodium amytal, the so-called "truth serum," actually a short-acting barbiturate that induces an intoxication during which people talk with fewer inhibitions.

The leading candidate is "source amnesia," the inability to recall the origin of the memory of a given event.

Altar boys and members of the parish Boy Scout troop were among those molested by the Rev. Gilbert Gauthe, 40 years old, according to felony charges of sexual abuse lodged against him by the local authorities. Father Gauthe, who has been suspended by his Bishop and is currently confined to a private psychiatric hospital in Connecticut, has pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity to 34 counts of molestation. If convicted, he could face life imprisonment at hard labor. Assuming that the case reaches the trial stage - no date has yet been set -it may be the first time that a priest has faced such charges in an American court of law, according to The National Catholic Reporter, which has carried a number of articles on the case.<br /></div></li><li><div align="left"><a href="http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?sec=health&res=9C0CEED7133BF930A15756C0A963948260">PHYSICIANS ALERTED TO RISKS OF ABUSE</a><br />May 23, 1985 - By SHARON JOHNSON - Home Desk - 781 Words<br />ALTHOUGH violence is a common experience for American women, some physicians overlook it in treating their patients because they do not recognize the emotional and physical signs of rape, wife-beating and child abuse.

In the view of the scholar who made the material available to The New York Times, the documents establish ''a failure of courage'' on the part of Freud and show that personal considerations, long shielded from scholars, prompted Freud to abandon this early tenet, the so-called seduction theory. This view is vigorously disputed by other Freud experts. The scholar, Jeffrey Moussaieff Masson, was formerly the projects director for the Sigmund Freud Archives and was to have become its next director, but was dismissed in 1981 in a dispute over interpretation of other controversial Freud material. The new material shows, among other things, that Freud, in his last years before his death in 1939, sought to suppress the work of a colleague, Sandor Ferenczi, who held what Freud and others in the psychoanalytic movement regarded as heretical views - views that in some ways paralleled Freud's own early work on the seduction theory.<br /></div></li><li><div align="left"><a href="http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?sec=health&res=9406E5DF1238F937A35752C0A965948260">ETAN PATZ CASE PUTS NEW FOCUS ON A SEXUAL DISORDER, PEDOPHILIA</a><br />January 4, 1983 - By BRYCE NELSON - Science Desk - 1629 Words<br />WHEN disturbing new evidence recently revived the case of Etan Patz, the 6-year-old boy who disappeared three years ago near his home in Manhattan, parental fears for the safety of small children were also reawakened. One piece of evidence - which ultimately lost credibility - was a photograph that seemed to link Etan Patz's fate to the North American Man-Boy Love Association, a group that says it exists ''to support the right of men and boys to have consensual sex together.'' . Although the photograph has been eliminated as evidence, the police continue to investigate the possiblity that Etan was abducted to be sexually used. The statements of the North American Man-Boy Love Association focused the attention of an incredulous public on the fact that there are not only people who have sexual relations with children but who publicly assert that it has benevolent effects. At a news conference last week in New York, a spokesman for the association would not say at what age his group thought that a boy was too young to give informed consent to having sexual relations with an adult.</div></li></ol><div align="left"> </div><div align="left"> </div>CLINIC FOR CHILDREN, we smile with youhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13937135211402900335noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7406455044074028187.post-33837736763903344952008-12-21T07:27:00.000-08:002008-12-21T07:45:43.244-08:00NEWS AND REPORT PEDOPHILIA AND CHILDREN<div align="left"><strong><span style="font-size:180%;"></span></strong> </div><div align="left"><strong><span style="font-size:180%;"></span></strong> </div><div align="left"><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">NEWS I : Priestly Silence on Pedophilia</span></strong> </div><div align="left"><span style="font-size:85%;">source ; new york time</span></div><p><br /><span style="font-size:85%;">Provided by<br />DR WIDODO JUDARWANTO</span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><strong><span style="font-size:180%;"><span style="font-size:100%;">FIGHT CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE AND PEDOPHILIA</span><br /></span></strong>Yudhasmara Foundation<br />JL TAMAN BENDUNGAN ASAHAN 5 JAKARTA PUSAT, JAKARTA INDONESIA 10210<br />PHONE : (021) 70081995 – 5703646<br />email : </span><a href="mailto:judarwanto@gmail.com"><span style="font-size:85%;">judarwanto@gmail.com</span></a><span style="font-size:85%;">,<br /></span><a href="http://pedophiliasexabuse.blogspot.com/"><span style="font-size:85%;">http://pedophiliasexabuse.blogspot.com/</span></a><br /><br /><br />A series of accusations of sexual abuse against minors has battered the American priesthood, yet the National Federation of Priest's Councils, the unofficial priests' union, has failed to assume responsibility. Never hesitant about offering advice to both church and state on national and international problems, the federation is silent on the scandal. This seeming indifference is typical of the head-in-the-sand reaction of most priests to the pedophile problem.<br />The priesthood may be the only profession in this country that makes no attempt to police itself against unprofessional behavior. Moreover, when a sexual abuse case arises, priests usually distance themselves from it. They claim it's the bishop's problem, maybe, but not theirs. In Chicago, where Joseph Cardinal Bernardin is attempting major reforms and re-examing decades of accusations, there is little enthusiasm among priests for what he has done and much sullen mumbling and complaint.<br />If Catholic clerics feel that charges of pedophilia have created an open season on them, they have only themselves to blame. By their own inaction and indifference they have created an open season on children for the few sexual predators among them.<br />Even now the typical priestly reactions to a pedophile charge are denying that the sexual abuse occurred, protecting the accused priest at whatever cost, covering up and blaming the victim and the media. He was cleared by the police, they often claim, ignoring the well-known truth that in many law enforcement jurisdictions there is a powerful, unwritten rule against arresting or indicting a priest. Or they will assure you that it was the boy's father who molested him or that the boy's mother brought the charges because the priest had rebuffed her sexual advances.<br />Personnel boards have had no hesitation in reassigning, after a few months of treatment, clerics who have faced such accusations -- sometimes to the role of pastor.<br />Bishop Raymond Goedert, former Vicar for the Clergy in the Archdiocese of Chicago, compared the scandal to the Clarence Thomas hearings, saying that it all depends on who you believe -- the priest or the alleged victim.<br />And his successor as vicar, the Rev. Patrick O'Malley, a past president of the priests' federation, assured a TV audience that members of a parish have the same sympathetic understanding for priests with sexual abuse problems that they do for alcoholic priests. "Slayers of the Soul," a book about pedophilia edited by a priest, asserts that psychologists think sexual abuse, like alcoholism, can be controlled through therapy groups. It does not occur to these "experts" that alcoholics are dangerous only to themselves, their families and the people they smash with their cars, but each pedophile is a threat to the future lives of hundreds of children.<br />As far as I am aware, no priest has ever turned another in for abusing a child or even testified against such a man. No diocesan senate of priests has spoken out publicly against the harm done by the predators of children to the church and to the priesthood. The priests' senate in my own archdiocese showed concern only for accused priests and for a hope that the Cardinal might keep me from writing more on the problem (he did not try). Concern for victims, past and future, was nonexistent.<br />Caught up in denial and defense mechanisms, priests seem unable to imagine what it must be like to be a victim or a member of a victim's family -- "a terror," in Cardinal Bernardin's words, that "will haunt them for the rest of their lives." Rarely have I heard that priests agree with the Cardinal that "we must protect children from them just as we protect women from rapists."<br />Some priests argue that pedophilia and related forms of sexual abuse are no worse in the priesthood than in any other profession. This shows a total misunderstanding of the priest's role in the life of the Catholic laity. To be defiled sexually by a priest is far worse than by anyone except a parent.<br />All professions rally to support their own when they are under attack. But the priesthood is a special profession. Its failure to police itself is a special disgrace.<br />Andrew M. Greeley, a Roman Catholic priest, is professor of social science at University of Chicago. </p><p> </p><p><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">NEWS II : Aftermath of Internet Pedophilia Case: Guilt, and a New Awareness of Danger</span></strong> </p><p><span style="font-size:85%;">source : new york time </span></p><p>First there were cryptic notes left next to the computer. Then phone calls in the middle of the night. Sometimes, half asleep, she would hear the front door gently closing and someone whispering in the driveway. By the time she got up, her son would be gone. Off again with the high school's bad crowd, she supposed at first. Out of control.<br />Later, she realized he was a victim of Internet pedophiles. But it was only after another boy, a 12-year-old named Orlandito Rosario Maldonado, was found buried along the Saw Mill River Parkway, and the police told her about it, that the woman discovered in how much danger her 15-year-old son had really been.<br />''I don't know if he was incredibly naive, or bent on self-destruction or sexually addicted to the Internet, or what,'' the mother said of her son, who was sexually abused by several middle-aged men he met through an Internet chat room. One of the men was Robert D. DeRosario, a convicted child abuser whom the police have identified as the main suspect in Orlandito's killing.<br />The two boys lived a few miles and several worlds apart. One was wealthy and skilled in computers, pointing and clicking his way to disaster. The other, Orlandito, was simply unlucky. They never met, but the boys were linked to each other and to an unlikely group of successful suburban men by a criminal investigation that is a reminder of how technology can bring different people and diverse worlds together for worse, as well as for better.<br />For the past year, a wide-ranging investigation into Internet pedophilia has cast Westchester County in a surreal new light that is part David Lynch, part Wired magazine. In all, nine middle-aged men have been convicted of or pleaded guilty to sexually abusing boys as young as 13 whom they met through the Internet. The defendants include a Yonkers city official, a former member of the Somers school board, a former chairman of the New Castle planning board and a retired spokesman for PepsiCo Inc.<br />The police had not set out to arrest pedophiles. That happened almost by accident. Their investigation was intended to solve the killing of Orlandito.<br />''We opened up Pandora's box,'' said Lt. Christopher Calabrese, commander of the Major Case Squad of the Westchester County Police. ''You like to think you have your finger on the pulse of the county, and then you come across this. It gives you a different perspective.''<br />Orlandito, a sixth grader from Yonkers, disappeared on Nov. 2, 1998, after he skipped on a haircut appointment and went to buy a toy laser pointer.<br />His body was discovered nearly three months later, on Jan. 23, 1999, next to an abandoned ice cream stand along the parkway in Dobbs Ferry.<br />A skinny boy with curly black hair, Orlandito loved football and loved having a few extra dollars in his pocket. Too young to work legally, he hung around a local supermarket and delivered groceries for tips.<br />But his experience with the digital age began and ended with Nintendo. He had never even been on the Internet, so it is odd that his death would set off a high-tech cybercrime investigation.<br />From the beginning, however, Mr. DeRosario, 37, a carpenter who lived just two blocks from Orlandito, was considered a suspect in the killing, the police said. Orlandito was last seen alive in Mr. DeRosario's apartment building, the police say. Mr. DeRosario has not been charged with the killing, but the investigation is focused on him.<br />As part of the investigation, the police seized Mr. DeRosario's computer and quickly discovered a gay men's chat room that they said he frequented under the screen name BobbyD63.<br />That America Online chat room, WestchesterNYm4m, is reminiscent of pre-AIDS bathhouses: it is anonymous, it is local and it is largely about arranging in-person sexual encounters. The men who enter the chat room display personal profiles that sum up their characteristics and desires in a direct way. Few of the participants appeared interested in pedophilia. On a recent night, a ''6-foot-2 slim Italian'' signed on, saying he was interested in meeting ''fat or chubby black men,'' while a man who called himself ''Tarrytown'' was less discriminating: he wanted to meet anyone who was ''up for hot fun tomorrow eve.''It was in this chat room that a troubled teenager, who was struggling in school, socially unpopular and questioning his own sexuality, found the men who would rush at the chance to abuse him, his mother said. For nearly a year, from the spring of 1998, when he was 14, to January 1999, when his parents sent him away to boarding school, this boy, who had once loved tennis and been commended by his teachers for his talent as a peer counselor, became a chat room regular.<br />His profile said that he liked older men, and the feeding frenzy began.<br />''I think these people got him when he was vulnerable,'' said his mother, who agreed to be interviewed on the condition that her name and where she lives not be revealed. ''He didn't have a lot of interests. He wasn't involved in high school life at all. He was getting bad grades. He was coming home in the afternoon and spending all of his time on the computer.''<br />All nine of the men who were prosecuted in the sex-crimes investigation after Orlandito's killing preyed on the 15-year-old boy, though some were also charged with abusing other boys. The boy gave statements to the police implicating all nine and testified in the one case that went to trial. Two other boys gave statements implicating separate men. Police investigators insist there were many other victims whom they could not persuade to come forward and provide evidence for the prosecution.<br />Mr. DeRosario pleaded guilty in May to abusing 12 boys, including the 15-year-old. Under his plea agreement, he will get 10 years in prison when he is sentenced in July. His lawyer, Vincent Lanna, did not return several phone calls seeking comment about the plea or about Orlandito's death.<br />''DeRosario basically had two pools of boys: one, boys from the neighborhood who would appreciate a dollar or a present, and the other, boys he met on the Internet,'' Lieutenant Calabrese said. The investigation into Orlandito's killing continues, but the police believe that the boy fit into the first of those pools.<br />They were two pools that could not have been further apart.<br />By the time Chief George N. Longworth of the Dobbs Ferry police visited the family of the 15-year-old to ask what their son might know about Orlandito's murder, the boy's parents had already sent him away to school.<br />They knew their son was involved with middle-aged men he had met on the Internet, but the youth officer of their community's police department had advised against reporting the abuse to the sex crimes bureau, mistakenly saying that if they did, their names would be in the police blotter, available for anyone to see. They decided to get the boy help privately rather than try to prosecute the men who abused him.<br />When Chief Longworth showed up with questions about a killing, the boy's parents realized their son faced more danger than they had ever imagined.<br />They persuaded him to cooperate with the police, though at first the boy was very reluctant to do so, the mother said.<br />''He thought he was in love with these men,'' the mother said with regret. She noted that her son took a laptop computer on family vacations and could unobtrusively send e-mail messages to them from wherever he was. ''Obviously the state of your mind when you're a teenager can be swayed so.''<br />Many of the men her son was involved with were prominent locally. They had professional credentials and admirable civic commitment, and some have long-running marriages. Some of the men who were arrested had chatted regularly with others online using their screen names, and the boy they abused gossiped about some of them with others, but the men did not appear to know one another, the police said.<br />Two of them tried to reach the boy even as their cases were in court, his mother said.<br />Mr. DeRosario called the family's home from jail just before the boy was scheduled to testify in the trial of Walter Salvatore, 39, a Staten Island man, who was convicted of sending the boy pictures of himself naked and faces sodomy charges after taking the boy to a Staten Island motel. </p><p>Patrick Murphy, 45, the Pepsico executive, has sent letters to the family home since the boy has been away. Mr. Murphy, who is H.I.V.-positive and admitted having unprotected sex with the boy, has pleaded guilty to reckless endangerment as well as to sodomy charges. The boy's mother said her son was H.I.V.-negative. The letters, she said, she turned over to the police.<br />If she could give a warning to other parents about the dangers of the Internet, the woman said it would be this: keep computers children use in a shared part of the house; limit computer time; and, most important, make sure children are involved in activities after school.<br />In the menacing southwest corner of Yonkers where Orlandito lived with his father, Jose Rosario, and three brothers in a fourth floor walk-up, the feeling is that Internet access ought to be denied to children, not just regulated. Orlandito's parents are separated. His father, who moved to Yonkers from Puerto Rico five years before the murder and does not speak English, has moved since Orlandito's death and was not reachable for comment.<br />But others in this hilly Nodine Hill neighborhood said they still felt the loss. Sharon Simon, who lived downstairs from Orlandito and often comforted him when he complained of missing his mother, who is in Puerto Rico, said he was a considerate child who was well liked by the neighbors.<br />''It's a shame,'' Ms. Simon said. ''He was a good boy.'' From his death and the news stories linking him to the Internet pedophile investigation, young mothers in the neighborhood, who sigh and shake their heads over how cute Orlandito was, have concluded that the Internet is no place for children.<br />''I'm not having my kids on the Internet,'' said Di'Maina Ballinger, 28, a mother of three who lives in Nodine Hill. ''They just got three new computers in school -- blue, pink, green -- they're beautiful. They sent a form home from school asking, 'Can your child use the Internet.' I just said no.''<br />But despite her advice to other parents in an interview, the 15-year-old boy's mother is so protective of the family's privacy that she has told few friends about her son's troubles, and even her own daughter has not been told the truth about what happened or why her brother was sent to a boarding school.<br />''It's hard, I have all these alibis,'' she said.

There are few national statistics on child sexual abuse in Indonesia. Both adults and children may be reluctant to report sexual abuse for many reasons. Their reluctance may be related to the historical norm of keeping such behaviour secret because of the sense of shame associated with it. If the abuser is someone close to them in terms of kinship or other bonds, they may be deterred by the likelihood that criminal charges and penalties may be imposed. Finally, the fact that the victims are young and dependent tends to be a major obstacle to disclosure.</span></p><p align="justify"><br /><span style="font-size:85%;">Research consistently reveals that, for reasons such as these, most child victims do not disclose their abuse. Even when they do, additional barriers may be encountered. For many of the same reasons that children do not report the abuse, their families may, in turn, not seek help. If the family does want help, they may still encounter difficulties finding the appropriate services. Victims of child sexual abuse are found in all classes and ethnocultural communities. Children who have physical or mental disabilities are especially vulnerable to sexual abuse.</span><a name="#pedodefinition"><span style="font-size:85%;"> </span></a></p><p align="justify"><br /><span style="font-size:85%;">Pedophilia involves re-occurring sexual arousal and desires or fantasies involving sexual impulses toward a children.

He said he made the decision to keep the tapes from defense attorneys, at least in part, because they could have hampered prosecutions by "muddying" the evidence.<br />The bombshell disclosures dramatically raise the stakes in the videotape controversy. The testimony of Mary Ritter, physician's assistant at the hospital, contradicts claims by District Attorney Dolores Carr that the office was unaware of the taping.<br />It adds fuel to questions about whether the prosecutor's office has fulfilled its legal obligation to make sure defense attorneys are provided any potentially helpful evidence. And it puts the district attorney in the peculiar position of challenging the credibility of Ritter, who is a star witness for the prosecution in many child sex-abuse cases.<br />The Mercury News reported this month that Ritter has tapes of as many as 3,000 examinations that were never turned over to defense lawyers, a disclosure that could jeopardize an untold number of past sexual-assault convictions. The paper has since learned of Ritter's testimony, which came<br /><br />as she was questioned about the videotapes in an October deposition in connection with a federal lawsuit alleging that the county wrongfully removed children from a home based on an erroneous claim of sexual assault. </div><br /><div><br /><strong>"There are people "... in the district attorney's office who have always been aware — or who have been aware since 1991," Ritter testified, naming some deputies in the office, under questioning by attorney Robert Powell.</strong></div><br /><div><br />Claims denied<br />Last week, officials in the Santa Clara County District Attorney's Office denied Ritter's contention. Chief Assistant District Attorney Marc Buller at one point called a reporter to insist that the deposition of Ritter was supposed to be confidential and that the reporter potentially faced jail for writing about the deposition. But no protective order, which would be needed to make the deposition confidential, was ever issued.<br />Buller in a subsequent conversation said: "Mary Ritter is absolutely wrong. The people she names absolutely say this person is not being truthful. Our office was never notified by Mary Ritter or Dr. Kerns that anything was being videotaped."<br />Asked why Ritter would falsely testify, Buller said: "Maybe because she's getting sued," referring to the underlying lawsuit in which she testified. The suit also names the district attorney's office, as well as more than a dozen other parties.<br />Ritter's longtime supervisor, Dr. David Kerns, called Buller's assertion "ridiculous." "Mary Ritter is like a saint," said Kerns, who initially headed pediatrics at the hospital and later retired from his post as chief medical officer. "She doesn't have it in her soul to lie."<br />Ritter's testimony raises troubling new questions about the way prosecutors treat their obligations to provide the defense with any potentially helpful evidence, even absent a specific pretrial request from defense attorneys. The issue is one of the most controversial areas of the law because of the heightened danger of unjust convictions if the defense is unaware of evidence that could help its case.<br />The issue of the videotapes exploded in April, when the 6th District Court of Appeals overturned the 2006 conviction of Agustin Uribe, finding that the prosecution had improperly withheld the videotape, which was turned over only after Uribe had been sentenced to 38 years to life in prison. A defense expert then reviewed the videotape and said it contradicted Ritter's testimony that the child had been assaulted.<br />The court ruled that it did not matter if prosecutors actually knew the tapes existed because the Valley Medical Center examinations were conducted as part of the investigation, making the medical staff part of the prosecution team.<br />Unfilled state forms<br />Attorneys in that case discovered that the hospital has routinely failed to fill out a form, required by state law, that asks whether the examination was videotaped. Kerns said last week he made the decision to provide a more complete report than the state form, albeit one that did not reveal the existence of videotape.<br />He said he took responsibility for the decision not to consider the videotape as evidence: "Videotape can be helpful to the defense because it creates confusion, but it's not necessarily going to serve justice or what's true," Kerns said. "Videotape has the potential to make things muddy, if you start introducing what in my judgment is inferior evidence." Kerns' decision appears to conflict with the requirements the U.S. Supreme Court first issued in Brady vs. Maryland, that defendants be provided any evidence that potentially could help establish innocence.<br />In her October deposition, Ritter testified that state bar investigators questioned her in connection with potential prosecutorial misconduct in the Uribe case; she said she told them it was "very possible" the trial prosecutor, who was Troy Benson, did not know of the tape at trial.<br />But, she testified, other prosecutors had long known of the videotaping, which began in 1991. On occasion, she testified, attorneys asked for and received videotapes in cases preceding the Uribe case, though she said she could not recall which attorneys or which cases.<br />Ritter testified that one prosecutor who knew of the videotaping was Penny Blake, a former deputy district attorney who oversaw the child dependency unit. Ritter testified that county social workers who worked with Blake on dependency cases actually watched the videotaping a few times a year. In addition, Ritter said, Blake "called me in to talk about them."<br />Blake, who retired from the office in 2006, last week said in a phone interview, "I have no independent recollection of any conversation," about the tapes, "but I am not saying that it did not happen at all. I can only assume she (Ritter) has a clear recollection. I don't remember when I first learned about" the tapes.<br />Ritter said Deputy District Attorney James Gibbons-Shapiro, who formerly specialized in prosecuting child sex-abuse cases, also knew of the videotapes. But Gibbons-Shapiro last week firmly denied that he had any knowledge videotapes existed. He said had he known, he would have used them in court to help bolster his cases.<br />Ritter also said of the deputy district attorney who formerly supervised the sexual assault team, "I believe that Vicky Brown knew, although I am not certain." But Brown last week denied knowing of the tapes.<br />'Quite obvious' taping<br />Kerns, who has retired from Valley Medical Center, said there "was no secret about" the videotaping of examinations. "It was quite obvious. If you go in, there is an examining table, then there is a big magnifying binocular instrument with a camera and a connection to a video camera and a video monitor. ... This has become sensitive, but there was nothing sensitive about it at the time."<br />The April appellate court ruling in Uribe apparently failed to spur the district attorney to determine whether videotapes existed in other cases that should be turned over. Defense lawyer Lawrence Gibbs read the decision and contacted the district attorney to see whether videotape existed in the case of his own client, Jared Jackson, who was contesting a sexual-assault conviction that relied heavily upon Ritter's determination of sexual abuse.<br />But even when Michael Fletcher, who supervises the sex-crimes unit, discovered in June there was videotape in Jackson's case and made sure it was sent to Gibbs, the office still did not investigate more widely.<br />Gibbs hired Dr. James Crawford of Oakland Children's Hospital, who helped write many of the protocols used in California for forensic sex-abuse examinations; Crawford refuted Ritter's finding that there was evidence of trauma. Crawford wrote in a sworn declaration: "Having the videotape would have been extremely important to any forensic practitioner. I can say with confidence that no qualified medical examiner would render an opinion as to the results of this examination based on solely the photographs if the videotape were also available."<br />Armed with two cases where experts said the videotapes had provided clear evidence contradicting Ritter's finding, attorney Michael Kresser, whose office oversees appeals for impoverished defendants, wrote District Attorney Carr a letter calling on Carr to identify any other videotapes not turned over in criminal cases. That same month, Ritter testified in her deposition that she had been videotaping cases for years with prosecutors' knowledge.<br />Prosecutors now have launched an extensive effort to review the videotapes and determine which ones involve cases that ended in convictions. They say they hope to identify and notify the defense attorneys in the coming weeks.</div><br /><div align="justify"></div><br /><div align="justify"><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">NEW III : Child Rapist and Pornographer Pleads Guilty</span></strong><br /><span style="font-size:78%;">source : 12:51 p.m. EST Dec. 18, 2008</span><br /></div><br /><div align="justify">SPOKANE, Wash., Dec 18, 2008 /PRNewswire-USNewswire via COMTEX/ -- 50-year Sentence Recommendation Subject to Court Approval<br />Kenneth John Freeman, 46, formerly of Richland, Wash., pleaded guilty yesterday to three federal crimes -- two counts of producing child pornography, one count of interstate transportation of a minor for the purpose of engaging in unlawful sexual activity -- and three state crimes -- three counts of rape of a child in the first degree announced James A. McDevitt, U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Washington, Karin Immergut, U.S. Attorney for the District of Oregon, and Andy Miller, Benton County, Wash., Prosecuting Attorney.<br />Freeman sexually abused his daughter from May 2000 to July 2001, when she was 10 and 11 years old. The abuse occurred in both Washington and Oregon. Freeman filmed the sexual abuse and thereafter distributed those pictures and videos internationally over the Internet.<br />Freeman fled the country in March 2006. Nine months later, he was profiled on the television program America's Most Wanted. The show featured an interview with his daughter and a plea for him to surrender to law enforcement authorities. A detective with the Toronto Police Service saw the show and for the first time linked Freeman to the production of child pornography images and videos that were some of the most frequently downloaded in the world.<br />Based on this information, Freeman was immediately placed on Immigration and Customs Enforcement's and the U.S. Marshals' Most Wanted Fugitives lists and he became the subject of a worldwide manhunt. A team of investigators from various law enforcement agencies, including the State Department's Bureau of Diplomatic Security, tracked Freeman to China.<br />On May 1, 2007, the pursuit ended when Hong Kong authorities arrested Freeman, a former competitive bodybuilder, as he arrived at the city's bus depot to begin a holiday trip. Throughout the pursuit, special agents of the Bureau of Diplomatic Security and law enforcement authorities in Beijing, Suzhou and Hong Kong were key players on the ground. The Chinese authorities, unable to take any action against Freeman due to his valid visa, nevertheless monitored Freeman's movements and notified U.S. law enforcement authorities of his intended travel to Hong Kong, which has an extradition treaty with the United States. Freeman ultimately consented to his extradition and agreed to be returned to the United States to face the charges against him. He was extradited to the United States in October 2007 to face these criminal charges.<br />According to the plea agreement, the U.S. Attorneys for the Districts of Oregon and Eastern Washington and the defendant agree that he should be sentenced to 50 years in federal prison followed by a three-year term of court supervision. Additionally, the plea agreement contemplates a 20-year prison sentence in state court to run concurrent with the federal sentence. Sentencing on the federal charges is scheduled for March 25, 2009.<br />"Thanks to the outstanding work of our local, federal and international law enforcement partners, Mr. Freeman was captured, has now pleaded guilty and will no longer be a danger to society," said U.S. Attorney McDevitt. "I want to especially thank the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Oregon and the Benton County Prosecutor's Office for their outstanding cooperation in the resolution of this matter. This case demonstrates the success of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative designed to combat the epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse."<br />"As a result of the collaborative efforts of local, federal and international law enforcement officers, a child sexual predator will be held accountable for the unspeakable crimes he committed," said U.S. Attorney Immergut. "Although it is tragic that the victim will be forced to live with the memory of the sexual abuse she suffered at the hands of her father, we are pleased that this chapter of her life will be behind her."<br />"We are very pleased that the close cooperation between federal and state authorities helped obtain the convictions and lengthy recommended sentences," said Andy Miller, Benton County Prosecuting Attorney. "None of this would have been possible without the extraordinary courage and strength of the victim during this long ordeal."<br />"As a former fugitive on ICE's and the U.S. Marshals' Most Wanted lists, Kenneth Freeman's case is of paramount importance," said Leigh Winchell, Special Agent in Charge of ICE's Office of Investigations in the Pacific Northwest. "Over the past five years, ICE has identified and removed more than 11,500 sexual predators from our communities, but Kenneth Freeman distinguishes himself as one of the most heinous and despicable pedophiles ICE has ever encountered. His capture overseas and eventual return to Washington State to face justice are a powerful reminder that the world's sexual predators increasingly have no place to hide. ICE's work is not done. We will continue to target those who sexually exploit our children, robbing them of their innocence and their youth."<br />This case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse launched in February 2006 by the Department of Justice. Led by United States Attorneys' Offices and the Criminal Division's Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section (CEOS), Project Safe Childhood marshals federal, state and local resources to better locate, apprehend and prosecute individuals who exploit children via the Internet, as well as to identify and rescue victims.

"They placed their most precious children in your care."<br />Invited to speak, Hegerman said he had nothing to say beyond points already raised by his attorney.<br />Outside the courtroom afterward, Linda Hegerman, whose adult daughter had sat crying alongside her, said only that the proceedings were a "big joke."<br />In November, a jury convicted Hegerman of first-degree criminal sexual conduct after a 6-year-old girl testified that he had touched her "culito" -- Spanish slang that she had used to refer to her private parts -- and told her to "pinky swear" not to tell anybody.<br />The girl's mother wrote in a letter to Rosas about having to come to grips with having left her children "with a monster every day."<br />"How could he look me in the eyes and carry on a casual conversation when he knew that he was making [her] promise to keep this horrible secret?" the mother wrote in a letter that was read aloud Friday by prosecutor Jill Gerber. "She was just a baby!"<br />Sentencing guidelines called for a 12-year prison sentence, but Rosas upped that by one-half because of aggravating factors that included the victim's vulnerability due to her age and Hegerman's position of trust and authority.<br />According to the criminal complaint against him, two 3-year-old girls also had told their parents that "Papa" or "Grampa" had touched their private parts. But because they were too young to testify, prosecutors dropped charges connected with those allegations.<br />Still, the parents of each girl attended the two-day trial, and one of the mothers, whose child had been the first to come forward, offered some advice after Friday's sentencing: "Parents -- believe your kids. Trust your instincts," she said.

(AP) — Child pornography is illegal even if the pictures are drawn, a federal appeals panel said in affirming the nation's first conviction under a 2003 federal law against such cartoons.<br />Dwight Whorley of Richmond is serving 20 years in prison, convicted in 2005 of using a public computer for jobseekers at the Virginia Employment Commission to receive 20 Japanese cartoons, called anime, illustrating young girls being forced to have sex with men. Whorley also received digital photographs of actual children engaging in sexual conduct and sent and received e-mails graphically describing parents sexually molesting their children.<br />A three-judge panel of the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Thursday upheld his conviction.<br />Among the arguments in his appeal was that cartoons are protected under the First Amendment because they do not depict real children. He also claimed the statute is unconstitutional because text-only e-mails cannot be obscene.<br />Two judges rejected those arguments. A third agreed with Whorley on those issues but joined the majority in affirming his convictions on the counts pertaining to photographs.<br />Judge Paul V. Niemeyer noted in the majority opinion that the statute under which Whorley was convicted, the PROTECT Act of 2003, clearly states that "it is not a required element of any offense under this section that the minor depicted actually exists."<br />Rob Wagner, the federal public defender who represented Whorley, said he was "very disappointed" with the ruling and that he would ask the full appeals court to reconsider. If that fails, Wagner said he will petition the U.S. Supreme Court to review the case.<br />A Virginia jury convicted Whorley of 74 counts including receiving obscene materials, receiving obscene visual representations of the sexual abuse of children, receiving child pornography and sending and receiving obscene e-mails describing the sexual abuse of children.<br />Whorley, 55, is serving his sentence at the Gilmer Federal Correction Institution in Glenville, W.Va.<br />He previously was sentenced to 46 months in prison for a 1999 child pornography conviction</div><br /><div align="justify"></div><br /><div align="justify"></div><br /><div align="justify"><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">NEWS VII : Sexual Abuse Complaints Subpoenaed</span></strong><br /><span style="font-size:78%;">SOURCE : new york times, November 12, 2008</span> </div><br /><div align="justify"><br />Since last year, when Assemblyman <a title="More articles about Dov Hikind" href="http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/people/h/dov_hikind/index.html?inline=nyt-per">Dov Hikind</a> invited his radio show listeners to discuss an explosive topic — sexual abuse of children in the Orthodox Jewish community — he says he has collected more than 1,000 complaints and the names of 60 accused sexual predators.<br /><br />Angela Jimenez for The New York Times<br />Assemblyman Dov Hikind asked radio listeners to talk about sex abuse, and they did. <a name="secondParagraph"></a><br />He has kept those stories under lock and key in his Brooklyn office, he says, because the people who said they were victims had sworn him to secrecy, fearful of becoming outcasts in a community where perceived troublemakers risk losing employment, housing and even marriage prospects.<br />But a prominent lawyer representing a half dozen former yeshiva students who say in a civil lawsuit that they were sexually abused by a teacher in Borough Park, Brooklyn, had Mr. Hikind served with a subpoena this week, demanding that he surrender those files.<br />Mr. Hikind has refused. “I will go to jail for 10 years first,” he said on Wednesday.<br />The legal conflict has revealed a deep tension within the Orthodox community that has been reported in the Jewish weekly press, and has been the almost exclusive topic of discussion on some Orthodox Jewish Web sites like <a href="http://failedmessiah.com/" target="_">failedmessiah.com</a> and <a href="http://unorthodoxjews.blogspot.com/" target="_">unorthodoxjews.blogspot.com</a> in the months since Mr. Hikind brought up sexual abuse.<br />“I’ve been shocked and overwhelmed at the magnitude of the problem,” said Mr. Hikind, an Orthodox Jew and a Democrat who represents the predominantly Orthodox community of Borough Park.<br />The victims have come to his office in a steady stream to tell their stories, he said. “Abusive teachers and rabbis in the schools,” he said. “Pedophiles on the streets. Incest in the home.”<br />Michael G. Dowd, the lawyer who had Mr. Hikind served with the subpoena, has been a leading advocate for plaintiffs who say they were abused by Roman Catholic priests. He represents six men who say they were abused by Rabbi Yehuda Kolko, a teacher at Yeshiva Torah Temimah in Brooklyn. Rabbi Kolko, who was charged with sexual abuse in 2006, pleaded guilty to a lesser charge and has left the school.<br />Mr. Dowd’s subpoena demands that the assemblyman turn over not just complaints that Mr. Hikind may have received against Rabbi Kolko, but “any and all reports of sexual abuse at any yeshiva and/or by any rabbi or employee of a yeshiva in New York City.” Mr. Dowd said they were crucial to proving his clients’ contention that sexual abuse was commonplace and routinely covered up by administrators in yeshivas.<br />He described Mr. Hikind’s refusal as “misguided.” While he said that he planned to have the subpoena enforced, he also said that he understood the reluctance to cross the powers that be in the Orthodox community. “The lead rabbis have the kind of power to shut people up that the Catholic Church had 50, 60 years ago,” he said.<br />Mr. Hikind said that every complaint he received was in complete confidence, with the understanding that “under no circumstances would their names be known in the community.”<br />“There is no way in the world, when people have come to me and spilled their hearts out to me, and shared the most intimate and private things with me, hoping I will do something to address the larger, overall issue, that I would ever betray their trust,” he said.<br />Mr. Hikind said he was responding to talk in the community about unreported sex abuse when he decided to devote three shows in a row to the topic on his weekly radio program, which is broadcast Saturday nights on <a title="WMCA Web site" href="http://nycradio.com/">WMCA</a>-AM (570). The response was immediate and broad, coming not only from Brooklyn but from upstate New York and New Jersey as well.<br />He has been trying to enlist leaders of the Borough Park community to help deal with the problem, with mixed success. “There is a cultural taboo about this kind of thing, and especially about going to secular authorities with sexual abuse issues,” he said.<br />In September, a clinical psychologist who initially agreed to head a task force on the issue, Rabbi Benzion Twerski, resigned after a week. In a letter to a Jewish weekly newspaper, he said he left under pressure brought by his children, who told him they were made to feel “shamed” by his participation.<br />Mr. Hikind said that of all the people who said they had been victims, “99 percent would not go to the police under any circumstances — that is just the reality.”<br />But Joel Engelman, 23, who grew up in the Orthodox community of Williamsburg, Brooklyn, and who helped found a group of victims called Survivors for Justice, said that while “well-intentioned,” Mr. Hikind had a classic misunderstanding about sexual predators that is embedded in insular communities like the Catholic priesthood or the Orthodox world. “The community cannot police itself,” he said. “This has been shown again and again.”<br />In his own case, Mr. Engelman said, a complaint he brought to the attention of administrators at the United Talmudical Academy against a teacher who sexually violated him when he was 8 years old led to the teacher’s brief suspension and subsequent reinstatement. Mr. Engelman has since brought a civil suit against the teacher and the school.<br />Prof. Marci Hamilton, who teaches at the <a title="More articles about Yeshiva University" href="http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/organizations/y/yeshiva_university/index.html?inline=nyt-org">Yeshiva University</a> School of Law and is an expert in sexual abuse by religious leaders, said Mr. Hikind’s refusal to turn over the names of alleged predators, if not his entire case file, was “outrageous.”<br />She said that <a title="More articles about Charles J.

Hal itu ditandaskan Deputi Perlindungan Anak pada Kementrian Negara Pemberdayaan Perempuan, Dr Surjadi Soeparman MPH.<br />Secara nasional memang tidak ada angka pasti jumlah anak di bawah umur yang dilacurkan. Sebab fenomenanya ibarat gunung es. Namun diperkirakan jumlah itu sekitar 30 persen.<br />Surjadi mengungkapkan, persebaran pelacur anak di bawah umur hampir merata di tiap daerah. Mereka mudah ditemukan di kantong-kantong kemiskinan. Karena itu, pemerintah daerah bertanggung jawab untuk menekan jumlah anak yang dieksploitasi menjadi pelacur. Pemerintah daerah harus melindungi anak-anak, utamanya yang putus sekolah, agar tidak dieksploitasi.<br />Menurut dia, eksploitasi seks komersial terhadap anak (Eska) terjadi dalam tiga hal. Yakni, prostitusi, perdagangan anak (trafficking), dan pornografi. Ia mengatakan, Eska bukan hanya masalah moral, tapi masalah sosial. Anak-anak itu melacurkan diri atau dipaksa melacurkan diri karena desakan ekonomi.<br />Pelacuran ABG di hotel-hotel dilakukan oleh sindikat perdagangan anak.Berbeda dengan pelacuran anak-anak di jalanan, seharusnya sindikatyang melacurkan ABG di hotel-hotel dan tempat hiburan lain sudahlangsung ditindak karena kita telah memiliki Undang-UndangPerlindungan Anak. Eksploitasi seksual komersial anak (ESKA) ini tidakmempunyai korelasi langsung dengan pengembangan pariwisata nasional.Undang-Undang Kepariwisataan No. 9 Th. 1990 dengan tegas menolaksegala bentuk perjudian dan perzinahan (wisata seks). Kenyataannya,jaringan kerja pariwisata banyak disalahgunakan oleh pihak-pihaktertentu untuk menyelenggarakan bisnis ESKA. Misalnya hotel-hotel,tempat hiburan malam, dan pusat relaksasi. Sebanyak 30 persenprostitusi di Indonesia dilakukan anak-anak, dan pelancong /turismerupakan salah satu pengguna bisnis ESKA yang cukup potensial.<br />Bagi para germo (mucikari), bisnis pelacuran ABG adalah sebuah ladang uang yang menggiurkan. Mereka umumnya tak keberatan mengeluarkan modal besar untuk investasi di bidang ini. Dalam bisnis PSK, investasiseorang germo tidak mengenal rugi. Karena, konsumen (lelaki hidungbelang) datang sendiri ke tempatnya. Bagi para germo, yang terpentingdalam bisnis ini ada “keahlian” mencari dan menyediakanpelacur-pelacur muda, cantik, bahenol, atau menarik atensi lelaki.Biasanya seorang germo memiliki rumah bordil lebih dari satu. DiJakarta, germo-germo kawasan Bongkaran misalnya, penanaman modal danmembuka usaha pelacuran tak hanya di satu tempat saja. Mengingatbisnis ini cepat menyedot keuntungan besar, mereka juga buka usaha PSKdi tempat lain. Metoda ini, selain mencari keuntungan lebih, jugamerupakan siasat untuk mensirkulasikan PSK binaannya. Hal tersebutberkenaan dengan animo pelanggan yang selalu menginginkan pelacur barudan cantik lagi muda.<br />Dalam budaya patriarki, seksualitas perempuan diletakkan di bawahdominasi pria, yakni demi melayani kebutuhan seksual pria dan menjadipelayan emosionalnya (Sex Money and Morality, by Thank-DamTruong).Terminologi ini nyaris sejalan dengan kedudukan para pelacurdi mata mucikari. Bagi germo, pelacur tidak memiliki hak melawan ataumembantah kata-katanya, maka apa pun perintah germo harus dilakukantanpa boleh mengajukan keberatan.<br />Prostitusi di Eropa praindustri misalnya, tidak hanya merupakanrespons terhadap persoalan-persoalan sosial-ekonomi wargametropolitan, tetapi juga ekspresi dari ambisi untuk memuaskan hasratlibido yang seharusnya dikendalikan seoptimal mungkin (ContemporaryStudies in Society and History, by Perry). Meningkatnya urbanisasi dikota-kota besar, instabilitas demografi, dan dislokasi ekonomiperempuan, telah membuka jalan bagi diterimanya manfaat sosial rumahbordil dalam dua hal. Yakni sebagai tempat berlindung kaum wanita yangtak memiliki tempat tinggal, sekaligus menyediakan para lelaki yangjauh dari istrinya untuk memuaskan libidonya.<br />Sebelum kita bergerak memberantas pelacuran, setidaknya kita harusmenelusuri lebih dulu alasan/motif mereka menjadi pelacur. Padadasarnya, motif mereka seragam: tuntutan ekonomi. Sebab itu, para PSKyang ditangkapi dan dibawa ke pusat rehabilitasi, selain diberipenyuluhan keagamaan, juga diberi pengetahuan tentang penyakitkelamin, bahkan harus diberi semacam kursus/ketrampilan sebagai bekalhidupnya setelah kembali ke masyarakat. Jika tidak, kemungkinan besarmereka menjadi PSK lagi.<br />Para ABG yang terperangkap dalam pelacuran, bukan hanya bisa pasrah menjalani kehidupan yang kejam, tetapi mereka juga tak jarang harusberhadapan dengan orang-orang di sekitarnya yang gila libido, liar,dan sering tidak kenal belas kasihan.<br />Berbeda dengan buruh anak di sektor perkebunan atau pertambangan yangkebanyakan hanya berhadapan dengan jam kerja yang panjang dan bebankerja fisik yang berat. Bagi anak-anak yang dilacurkan, merekadiharuskan oleh germo untuk melakukan apa saja yang mesti dikerjakandengan dampak psiko-logis yang merusak jiwa dan masa depannya. Tanpaperlu dikaji lebih jauh di lapangan, mempekerjakan anak-anak sebagaiPSK, jelas merupakan perbuatan melawan hukum dan salah satu bentukkejahatan terburuk.<br />Konvensi ILO Nomor 182 dengan jelas menyatakan, pelacuran anak-anakharus dilarang dan dihapuskan, karena benar-benar telah melanggar hakanak, di samping risiko yang harus ditanggung mereka dinilai terlaluberat.<br /><a title="berita tempo" href="http://www.tempointeraktif.com/hg/nasional/2004/12/02/brk,20041202-78,id.html" target="_blank">Berita TEMPO</a><br /><br /><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">NEWS II : Jumlah Anak-Anak Yang Dipasok Jadi Pelacur Di Indonesia Tinggi</span></strong><br /><strong><span style="font-size:180%;"></span></strong><br /><span style="font-size:78%;">sumber : tempo<br /></span><br />Kamis, 12 Juni 2003 11:37 WIB<br />TEMPO Interaktif, Jakarta:Di dunia sekitar 1,2 juta anak-anak terjebak dalam industri seks.<br />Memperingati tahun kedua Hari Menentang Pekerja Anak se-Dunia tanggal 12 Juni 2003, Organisasi Perburuhan Internasional (ILO) melalui program Internasional Penghapusan Pekerja Untuk Anak (IPEC) meluncurkan buku “Ketika Anak Tak Bisa Lagi Memilih: Fenomena Anak Yang Dilacurkan Di Indonesia”. Peluncuran buku yang dihadiri Direkur ILO untuk Indonesia, Alan Boulton, dilakukan di Hotel Sari Pan Pacific Jakarta Kamis (12/6). Selain peluncuran buku, juga dilaksanakan Debat Publik Membangun Aliansi Untuk Penghapusan Perdagangan Anak Perempuan Yang Dilacurkan.<br />Menurut Data ILO, sekitar 1,2 juta anak di dunia masih diperdagangkan dan terjebak dalam pekerjaan berbahaya atau kerja paksa ke eksploitasi seksual. “Perdagangan anak merupakan tindakan yang tidak bermoral dan ilegal yang memaksa anak-anak bekerja dalam kondisi memprihatinkan, dimana mereka seringkali diteror dan disiksa oleh oknum-oknum yang hidup dari memanfaatkan keluguan mereka,”kata Direktur Jenderal ILO Juan Somavia dalam siaran pers yang ditulis ILO.<br />Kondisi yang lebih memprihatinkan adalah kebanyakan anak-anak yang diperdagangkan berakhir dengan dieksploitasinya mereka menjadi pekerja seks komersial.<br />Kajian cepat yang baru dilakukan ILO-IPEC pada tahun 2003 memperkirakan jumlah pekerja seks komersial di bawah 18 tahun sekitar 1.244 anak di Jakarta, Bandung 2.511, Yogyakarta 520, Surabaya 4.990, dan Semarang 1.623. Namun jumlah ini dapat menjadi beberapa kali lipat lebih besar mengingat banyaknya pekerja seks komersial bekerja di tempat-tempat tersembunyi, ilegal dan tidak terdata.<br />Lebih lanjut, data yang ada memperlihatkan daerah-daerah pemasok anak-anak untuk kegiatan pelacuran meliputi Jawa Timur, Jawa Tengah, Jawa Barat, Lampung, sumatera Barat, Suamtera Utara, Kalimantan Barat, Sulawesi Utara dan Sulawesi Tenggara. Sementara daerah-daerah penerimanya terutama Jakarta, Bandung, Surabaya, Denpasar, Medan, Riau, Batam, Ambon, Manado, Makasar, dan Jayapura. Beberapa diantaranya bahkan diperdagangkan di luar negeri seperti Sinagpura, Malaysia, Taiwan, dan Jepang.<br />Buku yang diluncurkan tersebut berisi studi-studi lapangan yang dilakukan ILO-IPEC bersama dengan Universitas Katolik Atmajaya, Yayasan Kusuma Buana, dan Universitas Airlangga. Buku ini membahas latar belakang pelacuran anak di Indonesia, prosedur jaringan dan rekrutmen, kisah-kisah anak yang dilacurkan, faktor pendorong timbulnya pelacuran anak, perlindungan hukum dan implikasinya. “Peluncuran buku ini diharapkan dapat menggugah berbagai pihak untuk lebih peduli tentang pelacuran anak dan melakukan tindakan konkrit untuk mengatasinya,”ujar Andri Yoga Utami, salah satu editor buku ini. Ia juga menambahkan perlunya perubahan paradigma bahwa dalam kasus anak yang dilacurkan, anak hanya menjadi korban dan menjadi seseorang yang tidak punya pilihan. “Berbeda dengan PSK dewasa,”katanya.<br />Dalam kesempatan tersebut Alan Boulton menyerahkan secara simbolis buku “Ketika Anak Tak Bisa Lagi Memilih: Fenomena Anak Yang Dilacurkan Di Indonesia” kepada wakil dari parlemen remaja, pemerintah, lembaga donor, pekerja, LSM, organisasi kewanitaan, dan polisi.<br />“Ini adalah sesuatu yang dilihat ILO sebagai hal yang buruk sehingga pekerja anak terutama dalam hal seksual, harus dihapuskan,”kata Alan mengenai masalah anak yang dilacurkan. Indonesia pun menjadi salah satu negara yang termasuk dalam program IPEC karena kondisi pelacuran anak yang memprihatinkan. </div><br /><br /><p><br /><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">NES III : TERBESAR SETELAH BISNIS PELACURAN, OMZET JUAL ORANG 32 TRILYUN RUPIAH</span></strong></p><br /><br /><p><span style="font-size:78%;">sumber : suara indonesia baru</span></p><br /><br /><p>Jakarta (SIB)Omset perdagangan orang (trafficking) di Indonesia setiap tahunnya diperkirakan mencapai Rp 32 triliun.Menurut data Bareskrim Polri, ini adalah omset terbesar kedua setelah bisnis pelacuran.Besarnya omset bisnis perdagangan orang ini, kata Menteri Pemberdayaan Perempuan, Meutia Hatta, masuk akal mengingat bentuk perdagangan orang di Indonesia semakin beragam. Mulai dari buruh migran sebagai pekerja paksa, pembantu rumah tangga, pekerja anak, pelacuran paksa, eksploitasi seksual komersiil anak, pedofilia, pengantin pesanan, adopsi ilegal hingga perdagangan organ tubuh.“Kasus terakhir adalah keterlibatan oknum guru SMKN jurusan nautika perikanan laut di Bulukumba Sulsel yang merekrut siswa dengan biaya Rp 5 juta sampai Rp 6,5 juta untuk dipekerjakan di kapal nelayanâ, tutur Meutia dalam sambutan yang dibacakan Sekmen Koensatwanto pada acara sosialisasi UU No 21 tentang Pemberantasan Tindak Pidana Orang (PTPO), Rabu (14/5).</p><br /><br /><p>Berdasarkan laporan KBRI Malaysia bulan Januari - Februari 2008, Satuan Tugas Pelayanan Perlindungan WNI berhasil menyelamatkan 6 orang Indonesia yang dilucurkan di hotel-hotel Kuala Lumpur. Selain itu laporan bulan April 2008, KBRI Malaysia menerima dua orang tenaga kerja di bawah umur minta perlindungan akibat sering dianiaya majikan.PERDAGANGAN ANAKDiakui Meutia, hingga kini belum ada data akurat jumlah perempuan dan anak yang diperdagangkan. Namun, diperkirakan 700 ribu hingga 1 juta per tahun. Bareskrim Kepolisian RI sendiri hingga 2007 mencatat 492 kasus perdagangan orang dengan melibatkan 1.015 (18%) orang dewasa dan 238 (19%) anak-anak.Sedang IOM (International Organization Migrant) hingga Januari 2008 mencatat 3.024 orang dengan rincian 5 bayi, 651 anak perempuan, 134 anak laki-laki, 2.048 perempuan dewasa dan 206 laki-laki dewasa.Indonesia diakui Meutia sudah melakukan berbagai upaya untuk memberantas perdagangan orang antara lain dengan dikeluarkannya UU PTPO dan kebijakan lainnya. Namun, semua itu tidak akan berarti tanpa adanya kesadaran dan perlawanan bersama dari semua pihak. “Pengetahuan masyarakat tentang kejahatan perdagangan orang masih rendahâ€, tandas Meutia.

Permasalahan ini menjadi kian kompleks seiring dengan krisis ekonomi yang berkepanjangan. Dalam situasi ekonomi yang menghimpit, anak perempuan seringkali di pandang sebagai jalan keluar. Situasi semacam inilah yang menggiring anak-anak diperdagangkan untuk kepentingan eksploitasi seksual, seperti sebagai pelacur atau industri seks lainnya. Namun demikian persoalan perdagangan anak bukan hanya persoalan kemiskinan semata, melainkan menjadi persoalan multi aspek dan sangat kompleks. </p><br /><br /><p>Selain substansi permasalahan yang melibatkan banyak pihak yang bermain (korban, calo, agen, makelar, konsumen), struktur yang ada (hukum, sosial-budaya, ekonomi, dan politik) dan kultur (gaya hidup hedonis dan konsumtif) merupakan faktor-faktor yang melanggengkan terjadinya perdagangan anak. Beberapa laporan telah mengungkapkan keberadaan perdagangan anak di Indonesia, seperti laporan Farid yang mengungkap adanya sekitar 40 anak perempuan usia dibawah 18 tahun dikirim ke Taiwan dan Hong Kong setiap bulannya, diperkirakan sekitar 20% dari 5.000.000 TKI telah diperdagangkan dan dipekerjakan sebagai pelacur, terdapat 91 kasus perdagangan anak di Sumatera Utara antara tahun 1999 sampai dengan Mei 2002, diperkirakan 300-400 anak yang menjadi korban perdagangan dan eksploitasi seksual di Sumatera Utara, sementara perempuan dan anak-anak yang diperdagangkan di Asia Tenggara diperkirakan lebih dari 225.000 orang. </p><br /><br /><p>Diyakini oleh banyak kalangan bahwa kasus perdagangan anak itu seperti gunungan es, dimana jumlah yang sebenarnya jauh lebih besar dari kasus-kasus yang terungkap. Hal ini didasari dengan banyaknya tempat-tempat pelacuran yang tidak terdaftar dan tersembunyi. Dari laporan-laporan yang ada, menunjukkan bahwa perdagangan anak tidak hanya terjadi pada skala domestik tapi juga internasional. Jalur yang dipakai untuk perdagangan anak, biasanya menyatu dengan jalur yang digunakan dengan orang dewasa. Sebagaimana kasus yang melibatkan 500 wanita dari Blitar (Jawa Timur) yang di jual untuk dijadikan pelacur di Bukit Maraja (Sumatera Utara), dimana dilaporkan bahwa mereka adalah wanita dewasa, namun faktanya setengah dari mereka berusia di bawah 15 tahun dengan korban paling muda 13 tahun. Diperkirakan kebanyakan perempuan yang bekerja di pelacuran, semula adalah korban perdagangan terselubung. Sedangkan kasus-kasus perdagangan anak internasional banyak yang memanfatkan jalur buruh migran atau yang biasa di kenal dengan TKI (Tenaga Kerja Indonesia), dan ditempat tujuan banyak yang dijadikan pelacur. Modus operandi memanfaatkan jalur ini semakin sulit dilacak karena banyak diantara sindikat memanfaatkan kelemahan pengawasan dan monitoring aparat terhadap jalur pengiriman TKI secara resmi. Hal ini semakin diperlancar dengan mudahnya seseorang memalsukan identitas, khususnya bagi mereka yang usianya belum cukup yaitu masih dibawah 18 tahun. Perdagangan ini didalangi oleh mafia, geng, dan orang-orang tertentu yang berprofesi memperdagangkan anak-anak dan perempuan. Perekrutan dilakukan melalui bujukan & penipuan, ancaman & paksaan, atau kekerasan serta penculikan. Sasaran mereka adalah keluarga miskin, anak-anak yang kehilangan keluarga akibat bencana dan anak-anak korban kekerasan dalam keluarga. Daerah-daerah yang selama ini menjadi pemasok anak-anak untuk pelacuran adalah Jawa Timur, Jawa Tengah, Jawa Barat, Lampung, Sumatra Barat, Sumatra Utara, Kalimantan Barat, Sulawesi Utara, dan Sulawesi Tenggara. Sedangkan daerah yang menjadi tujuan perdagangan untuk tingkat domestik adalah kota-kota besar di Indonesia seperti: Jakarta, Bandung, Surabaya, Denpasar, Medan, Batam, Ambon, Manado, Makassar, dan Jayapura. Sedangkan untuk tujuan internasional meliputi Malaysia, Singapura, Brunei, Australia, Taiwan, Korea, Jepang, Arab Saudi, Emirat Arab, Qatar, Bahrain, Oman dan Kuwait, Tokyo, Jerman, Belanda, Winna dan Hongkong. Indonesia, menurut laporan Departemen Negara Amerika Serikat perihal perdagangan manusia (trafficking in person), masuk pada tier (tingkat) ketiga atau peringkat terburuk dalam menangani perdagangan manusia di wilayahnya. Dimana pemerintah tidak melakukan usaha untuk memenuhi standar minimum dalam menangani perdagangan manusia. Bahkan mereka yang menempati peringkat ini pemerintahnya menolak untuk mengakui masalah perdagangan manusia diwilayah mereka. Sekalipun pemerintah Indonesia tidak sampai kepada penolakan untuk mengakui tentang keberadaan perdagangan manusia, namun hingga sekarang belum ada usaha yang signifikan untuk mensikapi permasalahan ini. </p><br /><br /><p></p><br /><br /><p><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">NEWS IV : Nestapa Anak-anak Kita</span></strong><br /><span style="font-size:78%;">SUMBER : TEMPO, Sabtu, 13 Desember 2008 01:06 WIB</span></p><br /><br /><p><span style="font-size:78%;"></span><br />Pemerintah perlu menanggapi serius meningkatnya jumlah kasus perdagangan dan eksploitasi seksual terhadap anak. Kejahatan ini akan semakin merajalela di tengah krisis ekonomi seperti sekarang. Jika tak ada upaya memerangi secara sistematis, kelak negeri ini akan menuai generasi yang bobrok.<br />Lihatlah data Koalisi Nasional Penghapusan Eksploitasi Anak dan Komersial Anak dalam sebuah seminar di Jakarta belum lama ini. Setiap tahun sekitar 150 ribu anak menjadi korban eksploitasi seksual. Angka ini naik dua kali dibanding pada 1998. Berdasarkan data Badan Perserikatan Bangsa-Bangsa untuk Anak (UNICEF), saat itu angka kekerasan seks terhadap anak sekitar 70 ribu kasus per tahun.<br />Jangan heran bila peringkat Indonesia dalam urusan yang tidak bisa dibanggakan ini pun meroket. Tahun lalu, kita masih berada di urutan kelima sebagai tempat favorit wisata seks anak. Kini kita "naik kelas", menempati urutan ketiga, di bawah Brasil dan Vietnam.<br />Kasus pelacuran anak paling sering muncul di daerah wisata, seperti Lombok dan Bali. Di sana banyak bocah laki-laki yang terjerumus dalam dunia pelacuran dan menjadi santapan kaum pedofil. Tak sedikit pula di antara mereka yang diperdagangkan, bahkan dibawa ke negara lain. Di daerah lain, eksploitasi seksual terhadap anak juga terjadi. Banyak anak perempuan berusia kurang dari 18 tahun dipaksa melacur. Sebuah penelitian bahkan menyimpulkan, 30 persen pekerja seks yang beredar di negeri ini adalah anak-anak. Umumnya mereka terjerat dalam pelacuran karena faktor kemiskinan.<br />Tak ada upaya serius menyelamatkan mereka. Pemerintah pusat dan daerah kurang peduli. Ini tecermin dari tiadanya program konkret yang dibiayai anggaran negara atau daerah untuk memerangi pelacuran dan perdagangan anak. Sementara itu, polisi tidak memprioritaskan pengusutan terhadap kasus-kasus eksploitasi seksual terhadap anak. Padahal memerangi pelacuran anak sama pentingnya dengan memberantas perjudian, premanisme, dan narkoba, karena akibat kejahatan itu sama-sama buruk bagi bangsa ini.<br />Keuntungan materi yang didapat anak-anak dari dunia gelap itu tak sepadan dengan penderitaan mereka. Berbagai hasil penelitian menyebutkan, anak-anak yang dilacurkan gampang tertular virus mematikan HIV/AIDS. Mereka juga sering mengkonsumsi minuman keras dan dan obat-obatan terlarang, seperti ekstasi. Pelacur anak-anak sangat rentan pula mengalami tindak kekerasan, baik secara seksual, fisik, maupun nonfisik, seperti dihina dan diejek.<br />Pemerintah pusat, juga daerah, wajib menolong bocah-bocah malang itu. Soalnya, Undang-Undang Nomor 23 Tahun 2002 jelas memberikan perlindungan maksimal bagi-bagi anak-anak, termasuk dari eksploitasi seksual. Agar beban pemerintah pusat tidak terlalu berat, daerah-daerah perlu diminta mengeluarkan anggaran yang cukup untuk menyelamatkan anak-anak dari dunia pelacuran.</p><br /><br /><p></p><br /><br /><p><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">NEWS V : 95 Persen Korban Pelacuran Anak Mengidap Sakit Kelamin</span></strong></p><strong><span style="font-size:180%;"></span></strong><br /><br /><p><br /><span style="font-size:85%;">sumber : kompas, Rabu, 17 Desember 2008 01:21 WIB </span></p><br /><br /><p><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /></span>Jakarta, Kompas - Sebanyak 95 persen anak Indonesia korban pelacuran di luar negeri mengidap pelbagai jenis penyakit kelamin hingga terpapar virus HIV. Head Social Worker International Organization for Migration Anna Sakreti yang dihubungi hari Selasa (16/12) menjelaskan, temuan itu didapat dari 807 anak korban trafficking (perdagangan), usia antara 15 tahun dan 18 tahun yang didampingi Maret 2005 hingga September 2008.<br />”Dari jumlah itu, 21,68 persen adalah korban eksploitasi seksual. Mereka terkena pelbagai penyakit menular seksual dan diobati di RS Polri Kramat Jati lalu mendapat rawat jalan. Observasi terus dilakukan kepada mereka,” kata Anna.<br />Jenis penyakit menular seksual (PMS) yang dialami anak korban pelacuran adalah chlamydia (76,6%), gonorrhea (6,3%), hepatitis B (3,8%), trichomoniasis (3%), condilloma accuminata (2%), sifilis (1,8%), dan HIV positif (1,1%).<br />Secara berurutan, lima besar negara tujuan utama trafficking anak adalah Malaysia, Indonesia, Arab Saudi, Mauritius, dan Jepang. Menurut Anna, jumlah anak korban pelacuran yang ditangani IOM merupakan fenomena gunung es. Masih banyak anak korban pelacuran yang belum terpantau.<br />Biasanya, anak-anak korban pelacuran yang ditangani IOM merupakan rujukan dari Pelabuhan Tanjung Priok, Terminal IV Bandara Soekarno-Hatta, lembaga swadaya masyarakat (LSM) di Entikong-Kalimantan Barat, Batam, Riau, Mabes Polri, dan terkadang Departemen Sosial. Begitu diserahkan, para anak korban pelacuran mendapat tes kesehatan menyeluruh.<br />Para korban dipulihkan psiko-sosial dan fisik di Rumah Sakit Polri Kramat Jati, Jakarta Timur. Rata-rata mereka dirawat selama dua minggu di rumah sakit.<br />Selama 2005-2007 kondisi para korban masih dimonitor di daerah oleh 80 mitra LSM yang mendampingi mereka. Namun, sejak tahun 2008, program itu tidak dilanjutkan karena negara donor menghentikan bantuan. Negara donor menganggap Indonesia dianggap sudah memiliki perangkat undang-undang yang memadai.<br />Namun di lapangan, pendampingan terhadap anak korban pelacuran tidak berlanjut, termasuk dalam hal pemantauan kesehatan oleh pemerintah daerah. Sementara untuk daerah Jabodetabek, pemantauan kesehatan masih terus berlangsung.<br />Dirawat KBRI<br />Anna Sakreti menambahkan, kini para korban trafficking itu juga mendapat pemeriksaan kesehatan awal di Kedutaan Besar Republik Indonesia (KBRI) Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Anak korban trafficking juga mendapat perawatan kesehatan.<br />”Anak yang menjadi korban trafficking usianya bervariasi, dari 3 tahun hingga 18 tahun. Sebagian besar dari mereka dieksploitasi sebagai pembantu rumah tangga (33,58%), eksploitasi di tempat transit (23,54%), dan eksploitasi seksual (21,68%).<br />Daerah asal anak-anak yang menjadi korban trafficking adalah Kalimantan Barat (30,98%), Jawa Barat (16,11%), Jawa Timur (9,9%), Nusa Tenggara Barat (8,43%), dan Sumatera Utara (8,3%).

Selain mengamankan seorang germo, petugas berhasil menyelamatkan seorang gadis di bawah umur yang sedang melayani lelaki hidung belang.Pengungkapan sindikat ini bermula dari informasi masyarakat tentang banyaknya gadis-gadis muda yang berkeliaran di sebuah hotel di Kediri. Setelah dilakukan penyelidikan, diketahui jika perempuan yang mayoritas masih di bawah umur itu bekerja melayani lelaki hidung belang yang menginap di hotel. "Berdasarkan informasi itu, kami memutuskan untuk melakukan penggerebekan di salah satu hotel ternama yang menyediakan PSK yang masih ABG. Beruntung ada salah satu tamu yang sedang memesan jasa mesum saat digeledah," ujar KBO Reskrim Polresta Kediri Iptu Edy Herwianto, Rabu (30/4/2008).</p><br /><br /><p>Saat didobrak, petugas menemukan seorang ABG berinisial Int, yang masih berusia 17 tahun sedang menemani lelaki hidung belang. Mereka tidak bisa mengelak telah melakukan perbuatan mesum karena tertangkap tangan. Saat itu juga petugas menggelandang Int, warga Kel Tinalan, Kec Pesantren, Kediri dan tamunya, Suwanto (41), warga Kabupaten Nganjuk ke Mapolresta Kediri. Saat diperika, Int mengaku bekerja di bawah kendali seorang germo bernama Novita (35), warga Kecamatan Gampengrejo, Kediri. Selain dirinya, Int mengaku dipaksa melayani lelaki hidung belang bersama dua rekannya yang masih anak-anak, yakni Shl (18), warga Kel Semampir, Kec Kota, Kediri, serta Egy (18), warga Gampengrejo, Kediri.Petugas yang sudah mengantongi keberadaan Novita dengan mudah meringkusnya tanpa perlawanan. Wanita paruh baya itu mengaku terpaksa mempekerjakan para ABG dengan alasan ingin menolong kebutuhan ekonomi mereka. Novita sendiri cukup senang mengasuh dan mempekerjakan gadis di bawah umur karena lebih disukai pria hidung belang. "Saya dulu juga PSK. Karena dimintai tolong mencarikan pekerjaan, saya mengarahkan ke profesi yang pernah saya lakukan," ujarnya saat diperiksa.</p><br /><br /><p>Novita mengaku sudah melakukan pekerjaan itu selama satu tahun. Untuk lelaki yang ingin menikmati tubuh ABG, perempuan yang sudah bekerja sebagai PSK sejak tahun 1995 ini mematok harga antara Rp300-400 ribu sekali kencan. Tarif tersebut menurutnya cukup sesuai dengan pelayanan yang diberikan para ABG. Hal itu terbukti dengan banyaknya peminat yang rata-rata sudah berumur dan memiliki keluarga. Hingga saat ini petugas masih mengembangkan penyelidikan kepada jaringan penjual anak ini. Sebab diduga Novita juga berprofesi sebagai penyalur ABG ke sejumlah daerah lain. Untuk itu, petugas langsung menahan Novita guna pemeriksaan berikutnya. Sementara tiga ABG yang menjadi anak buahnya langsung dikirim pulang ke rumahnya masing-masing. Akibat perbuatan tersebut, Novita dijerat dengan UU No. 21 tahun 2007 tentang perdagangan orang dengan ancaman hukuman 5 tahun penjara. Selain itu tersangka juga dijerat dengan UU No 23 tahun 2002 tentang perlindungan anak, dengan ancaman hukuman penjara lebih dari 7 tahun.

Walaupun saya Muslim dia Katolik, dia suruh saya salat," kata karyawan Charlie, Iin Sholihin, dalam sidang penetapan ekstradisi di Pengadilan Negeri Jakarta Selatan, Jl Ampera Raya, Jakarta, Senin (21/4/2008).Iin yang duduk di semester IV Universitas Nasional, dipekerjakan Charlie di Lembaga Bahasa Inggris Expression. Dia meminta majelis hakim tidak mengekstradisi bosnya itu ke Australia."Saya mohon dengan sangat, Pak Hakim, agar mengambil keputusan sebaik-baiknya karena menyangkut nasib saya. Saya ingin tetap bekerja dan kuliah," pintanya.Hakim Syafrulloh Sumar bertanya. "Kalau Charlie nggak di sini kan masih bisa dikirimi uang kuliah," kata dia."Tapi saya nggak bisa kerja, Pak," sahut Iin.Tetangga Charlie, Ujang dan Ilham Maulana juga bersaksi.

Tetapi ujung-ujungnya, mereka berbuat jahat, yakni melancarkan aksi pedofilia," katanya, di Denpasar, Selasa.Kapolda mengungkapkan, sebelum berhasil menggaet sejumlah korban, biasanya pedofil "bule" terlebih dahulu mendirikan sebuah yayasan atau foundation yang berkedok sosial.Bersamaan dengan itu, para pengelola yayasan tersebut mulai bergentayangan mencari mangsa, yakni mengumpulkan para bocah kurang mampu dengan iming-iming memberi bantuan."Memang, bantuan biaya pendidikan, makan, minum bahkan pakaian, sempat mereka serahkan. Namun, ujung-ujungnya itulah yang jahat, yakni mereka memperkosa bocah-bocah di bawah umur itu," kata Kapolda dengan nada geram.Karenanya, Kapolda mengingatkan masyarakat Bali untuk lebih berhati-hati dalam menerima uluran tangan dari para anggota foundation yang belum jelas keberadaannya."Memang sih tidak semua foundation bermaksud jelek, banyak yang baik. Namun, ya..itu tadi, harus lebih berhati-hati," ujarnya, menambahkan.Irjen Pastika mengungkapkan, beberapa kasus pedofilia yang umumnya melibatkan orang asing di Bali, diketahui bahwa mereka terlebih dahulu harus tampil sebagai "pahlawan penyelamat" anak-anak kurang mampu di beberapa daerah.Setelah itu, baru kedok mereka mulai terbongkar, yakni sebagai manusia bejat yang telah melakukan hubungan seksual secara paksa terhadap anak-anak di bawah umur, katanya.</div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify">Menyinggung tersangka Heller Michele Rene (56), warga negara Prancis yang diduga terlihat kasus pedofilia di sejumlah negara, Kapolda menyebutkan, kuat dugaan kalau buronan Interpol itu juga sempat menebar "bantuan" di Bali."Kita masih selidiki, sejauh mana keterlibatan Rene dalam kasus pedofilia di Bali," ucapnya.Kabid Humas Polda Bali Kombes Pol AS Reniban menambahkan, dari hasil penyelidikan di lapangan, belakangan "tercium" kalau buronan Interpol tersebut juga terlibat aksi pedofilia Bali.Ia mengungkapkan, pihaknya menemukan tiga bocah di bawah umur di daerah Karangasem, yang telah "disetubuhi" secara paksa oleh tersangka Rene.Sehubungan dengan petunjuk baru itu, Rene yang semula direncanakan untuk diberangkatkan ke Prancis, terpaksa harus ditunda dalam wantu yang belum dapat ditentukan."Setelah perkaranya selesai diusut tuntas di Bali, baru kemungkinan yang bersangkutan diberangkatkan ke Prancis," ucapnya.</div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify">Di Prancis dan AS Rene yang buronan polisi dunia, ditangkap polisi Bali hari Rabu (9/3) lalu di tempatnya menginap, Bungalow Meditasi, di daerah Abang, Kabupaten Karangasem.Menurut Reniban, penangkapan terhadap si "bule" dilakukan setelah pihaknya sempat menerima faksimili dari Kedubes Perancis di Jakarta, yang menyebutkan bahwa Rene merupakan buronan pihak Interpol.Faks senada, juga diterima polisi Bali dari pihak NCB Interpol di Jakarta, yang mengungkapkan bahwa Rene menjadi buronan setelah diduga kuat terlibat dalam kasus pedofilia, yakni melakukan hubungan seksual dengan anak di bawah umur, di Prancis dan Amerika Serikat (AS).Petugas pada Ditreskrim Polda Bali menambahkan, dari hasil penyelidikan pihaknya, warga Prancis tersebut diketahui pertama kali datang ke Bali tahun 1996, kemudian sempat kembali ke negaranya, dan baru ke Pulau Dewata lagi pada 1997.Di penghujung tahun tersebut, Rene tercatat membeli sebidang tanah seluas 43 are (4.300 M2) di daerah Lovina, Kabupaten Buleleng, yang kemudian dibangun vila yang diberi nama "Tourille Villa".Belakangan, pemilik "Tourilla Villa" tersebut diketahui sebagai buronan polisi dunia, sehingga Polda Bali yang melakukan pelacakan akhirnya menemukan dan menangkap Rene di daerah Abang, Kabupaten Karangasem.Setelah ditangkap, menyusul ditemukan bukti-bukti baru bahwa Rene juga terlibat aksi pedofilia terhadap tiga bocah di daerah Karangasem, sehingga tersangka urung diberangkatkan ke Perancis atau AS.Untuk pengusutan lebih lanjut, warga negara Negeri Mode itu, kini ditahan oleh pihak Polda Bali di Denpasar. </div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify"><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">FACT III : IMING-IMING UANG 1.5 DOLAR, Mantan Diplomat Terjerat Paedofilia di Bali</span></strong></div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify">sumber : GloriaNet </div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify">Otoritas Australia bekerja sama dengan polisi Indonesia menyelidiki kasus tuduhan paedofilia yang dilakukan seorang mantan diplomat Australia untuk Jakarta, demikian Menteri Luar Negeri (Menlu) Australia, Alexander Downer, Senin (19/1).William Stuart Brown (52), mantan diplomat Australia untuk Indonesia, ditangkap di Karangasem, Bali, pada 5 Januari lalu. Ia dituduh melakukan pelecehan seksual terhadap dua anak laki-laki berusia 15 dan 13 tahun. Demikian berita yang dilansir Suara Pembaruan.Polisi Indonesia, Minggu (18/1) mengatakan, mereka bisa menghindari tuntutan pelecehan seksual itu jika otoritas Australia memberi banyak informasi mengenai Brown. Tapi, Menlu Downer mengatakan, Polisi Federal Australia juga akan bertindak jika mereka memiliki bukti yang cukup tentang Brown. "Polisi federal sudah menginterogasinya dalam beberapa kali pertemuan rahasia, hasil kerja sama dengan polisi Indonesia," kata Downer kepada Radio Australia, ABC, Senin.Nama Brown ternyata telah menjadi salah satu fokus Polisi Federal Australia, ketika mengeluarkan peraturan baru tentang memerangi turisme seks, kata seorang juru bicara polisi Australia. Dijelaskan, pada 2002, Australia mengeluarkan undang-undang menindak tegas semua pelaku pedofilia seperti tur seks ke negara-negara lain.Tindakan tercela Brown mendapat respon cukup besar dari beberapa media massa Australia. The Sydney Morning Herald dalam laporannya, Senin mencatat, di Gelumpang, Bali, dua anak laki-laki menceritakan bahwa tahun lalu mereka bertemu Brown di sebuah tempat tinggal sang diplomat. "Dia (Brown) mengajak kami ke sungai dan meminta bermain bersama dan kemudian memberi kami uang. Kami kemudian dipaksa (berhubungan seks)," kata IB, salah satu korban yang berusia 15 tahun.IB dan IMS - korban lain yang berusia 13 tahun - mengaku, Brown yang kini dipenjara membayar masing-masing $1,50 dan $ 3 untuk berhubungan seks di sebuah bukit di pesisir pantai berpasir hitam di Bali itu.Beberapa bulan belakangan, IB merasa tak enak badan. Orang tuanya membawa anak itu ke rumah sakit. Selang beberapa hari, polisi menuju tempat tinggal Brown di sebuah bukit yang ditumbuhi banyak pohon pisang dan kelapa. Polisi dengan mudah membekuk mantan karyawan salah satu badan donatur Australia untuk Jakarta, AusAID.</div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify">Pejabat polisi Karangasam, Kombes Pol Martanto Minggu mengatakan, Brown dituduh melakukan pelecehan seksual dengan dua anak laki-laki di Jasi, sebuah pantai terpencil di Bali, sebanyak 10 kali.

Menurut keterangan warga dan kalangan dekat Syekh Puji, saat ini baru Lutfiana Ulfa yang sudah dinikahi. Gadis berusia 12 tahun tersebut telah dinikah siri pada 8 Agustus 2008. Sementara dua bocah lainnya, akan dinikahi dalam minggu-minggu ini.Nantinya, istri-istrinya tersebut akan dikumpulkan Syekh Puji di lingkungan ponpes Miftahul Jannah, miliknya. Di lingkungan ponpes setiap istri akan punya tugas masing-masing. Misalnya istri pertamanya, Ummi Hani (26), yang ditugasi mengurus ponpes. Sedangkan Ulfa, sejak 19 Oktober 2008 diserahi tugas mengelola PT Silenter, yang bergerak dalam bidang pembuatan kaligrafi dari kuningan. Di perusahaan tersebut Ulfa duduk sebagai general manager.Begitu juga dua gadis cilik yang pekan ini akan dinikahinya. Keduanya, kata Syekh Puji, bakal menangani usaha-usaha yang ia miliki. "Mereka bakal mengurusi usaha yang saya miliki. Makanya akan saya didik," jelas Puji.'Kumpul-kumpul bocah' ala Syekh Puji sekalipun mendapat kecaman LSM perlindungan anak dan Majelis Ulama Indonesia (MUI), tidak membuat Syekh Puji bergeming. Pria brewokan ini mengaku kalau langkahnya sesuai dengan ajaran agama.Tapi menurut pandangan Dosen Psikologi Politik Pasca Sarjana Universitas Indonesia (UI) Hamdi Muluk alasan itu hanya sebagai tameng belaka. Sebab secara psikologi, prilaku Syekh Puji bisa dikatakan pengidap peadophilia."Paedophilia adalah sifat kejiwaan manusia yang mempunyai ketertarikan kepada anak di bawah umur," jelasnya kepada detikcom.Pengidap penyakit ini, kata Hamdi, punya ciri-ciri antara lain, ia punya ketertarikan seksual terhadap anak-anak, baik itu balita atau anak belum akal baligh. Dan ia menyukai seks yang jarak umurnya jauh berbeda.Dari ciri-ciri tersebut Syekh Puji bisa dibilang masuk dalam kriteria paedophilia. Sebut saja selisih usianya dengan Ummu Hani, istri pertamanya. Usia Syekh Puji saat ini menginjak 43 tahun. Sedangkan Ummu Hani baru berusia 26 tahun. Jadi usia Syekh Puji dan Ummu Hani berjarak 17 tahun. Dan sekarang ia ingin menikahi gadis berusia 12, 9, dan 7 tahun.Rektor UIN Jakarta, Prof. Azumardi Azra juga sependapat dengan Hamdi Muluk. Menurutnya, agama seharusnya tidak dijadikan alasan pembenaran oleh Syekh Puji. "Secara fiqih memang wanita bisa dinikahi setelah dewasa, tandanya ya menstruasi. Tapi kan ada UU Perkawinan yang mengatur batas umur minimal 17 tahun, kalau di bawah itu ya artinya menikahi anak-anak," jawab dia usai jadi pembicara dalam diskusi yang digelar Yapto Centre di Jakarta, Kamis (23/10/2008).Dengan demikian prilaku sang syekh ini sebenarnya bisa dikenai sanksi hukum. Sebab selain telah melanggar UU Perlindungan Anak, ia juga bisa dijerat Pasal 288 KUHP. Namun bisakah syekh dipidanakan?"Seharusnya bisa. Polisi harusnya melakukan penyidikan terhadap kasus ini," jelas pengamat kepolisian Bambang Widodo Umar saat dihubungi detikcom.</div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify">Kendala polisi, imbuh Bambang, hanya di pihak keluarga anak-anak tersebut. Untuk itu, polisi harus melibatkan LSM, seperti Komnas Perlindungan Anak untuk menjadi jembatan. Yang terpenting anak-anak tersebut bisa diselamatkan. Sebab bila hal pernikahan anak-anak di bawah umur dibiarkan, UU Perlindungan Anak jadi tidak berarti.Padahal di negara liberal seperti Amerika perlindungan terhadap anak mendapat perhatian sangat serius. Misalnya kasus sekte poligami di Texas, Amerika. Sekte yang dipimpin Warren Jeffs merupakan pecahan gereja Mormon yang penganut poligami.Meski Warren dan pengikutnya selalu memakai dalil agama terkait aktivitasnya, namun April 2008 lalu, Warren dan pengikutnya ditangkap karena dianggap telah melakukan pelecehan seksual terhadap anak di bawah umur.</div><div align="justify">Aparat Departemen Keselamatan Publik Texas dalam pengeledahan di area ranch (peternakan) milik sekte poligami menemukan 400 anak-anak di lokasi tersebut. Mereka sengaja dipelihara di ranch tersebut untuk mau melakukan hubungan seks saat memasuki masa pubertas.</div><div align="justify">Otoritas setempat juga mendapati bukti kalau anak gadis berusia 13 tahun dinikahkan secara spiritual kepada pria yang sudah mempunyai beberapa istri. Selain itu sejumlah gadis muda yang hamil dan baru melahirkan juga ditemukan di kompleks tersebut.Apakah prilaku Syekh Puji bisa dikategorikan seperti sekte poligami di Texas? Mungkin jauh berbeda. Tapi yang jelas, Syekh Puji telah melanggar UU Pernikahan, KUHP serta UU Perlindungan Anak.Krimonolog Universitas Indonesia Adrianus Meliala mengatakan, polisi kalau sudah mengetahui pernikahan Syekh Puji dengan gadis di bawah umur harus segera beraksi. "Polisi harus segera bertindak. Tidak perlu menunggu laporan lagi," tegasnya. </div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify"></div>CLINIC FOR CHILDREN, we smile with youhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13937135211402900335noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7406455044074028187.post-51829850713090997612008-12-17T09:21:00.000-08:002008-12-21T01:23:14.517-08:00NEWS AND REPORT : CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE & PEDOPHILIA IN INDONESIA<div align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">KORBAN PEDOFILIA DI BALI TERUS BERTAMBAH</span></strong></div><span style="font-size:85%;"></span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;">sumber : detiknews.com</span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"></span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;">Provided by<br />DR WIDODO JUDARWANTO</span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><strong><span style="font-size:130%;">SAVE INDONESIAN CHILD FROM PEDOPHILIA AND SEX ABUSE</span></strong><br /><em><span style="color:#ff0000;">WE SMILE WITH YOU, WORKING TOGETHER SUPPORT ALL OF CHILDREN</span></em><br />Yudhasmara Foundation<br />JL TAMAN BENDUNGAN ASAHAN 5 JAKARTA PUSAT, JAKARTA INDONESIA 10210<br />PHONE : (021) 70081995 – 5703646<br />email : </span><a href="mailto:cfc2006@hotmail.com"><span style="font-size:85%;">cfc2006@hotmail.com</span></a><span style="font-size:85%;">, </span><a href="mailto:allergyonline@gmail.com"><span style="font-size:85%;">allergyonline@gmail.com</span></a><span style="font-size:85%;">,<br /></span><span style="font-size:85%;"><a href="http://pedophiliasexabuse.blogspot.com/">http://pedophiliasexabuse.blogspot.com/</a></span><br /><br />Denpasar - Korban pencabulan dan pedofilia WN Australia Granfield Philip Robert (61) terhadap pelajar di Buleleng, Bali terus bertambah.

Sidang yang berlangsung di Amlapura, ibu kota Kabupaten Karangasem, sekitar 82 kilometer timur Kota Denpasar itu, cukup menarik minat sejumlah kalangan untuk menyaksikannya. Akibatnya, ruang sidang seluas kurang lebih 8 X 5 meter, tidak lagi mampu menampung jubelan pengunjung. Penyaksi yang tidak kebagian masuk ruang sidang, terpaksa mengendap-endap di bagian emper gedung pencari keadilan itu. Jaksa Eka Miharta SH, dalam nota dakwaannya menyebutkan, Tony bersalah melakukan aksi pelanggaran seksual terhadap dua korban di bawah umur yang memiliki jenis kelamin sama dengan terdakwa, yakni laki-laki. Korban IBA (15) dan IN (16), keduanya penduduk Desa Blumpang, Kabupaten Karangasem, telah "digauli" dalam beberapa kali oleh terdakwa Tony, sebagaimana layaknya hubungan intim sepasang suami istri. Bedanya, hubungan tersebut dilakukan terdakwa dengan kedua korbannya melalui cara anal seks atau sodomi. Perbuatan asusila yang dilakukan terdakwa Tony antara November 2003 hingga awal Januari 2004, didahului dengan adanya upaya bujuk rayu dan iming-iming tertentu. Menurut jaksa, terdakwa yang juga seorang guru bahasa Inggris pada sebuah SLTA bidang kepariwisataan di Amlapura itu, telah berkali-kali memberikan sejumlah uang atau membelikan makanan kepada para korbannya. Melalui cara tersebut, para korban bersedia diajak jalan-jalan dan berenang bersama, antara lain ke pantai Jasi, Kabupaten Karangasem. Di pantai yang pemandangan alamnya cukup menawan itulah, korban IBA dan IN sempat disodomi oleh pedofil asal Cambera, negeri Kanguru tersebut. Namun demikian, perbuatan yang tergolong rapih itu akhirnya terbongkar juga. Pada 6 Januari lalu Tony ditangkap dan diproses polisi. Menurut jaksa, perbuatan terdakwa melanggar pasal 82 Undang Undang No. 23 tahun 2002, tentang perlindungan anak, serta pasal 292 (jo) pasal 64 KUHP, yakni telah melakukan perbuatan asusila. Untuk memberikan kesempatan kepada tim penasihat hukum terdakwa yang diketuai Ketut Suwiga Ariadauh SH mengampaikan nota keberatan (eksepsi) atas dakwaan jaksa. Majelis hakim diketuai Nyoman Sutama SH, menunda persidangan hingga sepekan mendatang. Penyidangan pelaku pedofilia kali ini, merupakan yang kedua kalinya setelah seorang pedofil asal Roma, Italia, Mario Mannara (57), digiring ke PN Singaraja awal 2002 lalu. Namun, sejumlah pihak sempat menyayangkan, bahwa Mario yang tercatat merenggut sembilan bocah korbannya, hanya dijatuhi hukuman empat bulan penjara, dan kini telah kembali berkeliaran.</div>CLINIC FOR CHILDREN, we smile with youhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13937135211402900335noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7406455044074028187.post-83344779369631277562008-12-17T09:06:00.000-08:002008-12-21T07:11:21.629-08:00NEWS AND REPORT : SEX ABUSE & PEDOPHILIA IN INDONESIA<span style="font-size:85%;">Provided by<br />DR WIDODO JUDARWANTO</span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><strong><span style="font-size:130%;">SAVE INDONESIAN CHILD FROM PEDOPHILIA AND SEX ABUSE</span></strong><br /><em><span style="color:#ff9900;">WE SMILE WITH YOU, WORKING TOGETHER SUPPORT ALL OF CHILDREN<br /></span></em>Yudhasmara Foundation<br />JL TAMAN BENDUNGAN ASAHAN 5 JAKARTA PUSAT, JAKARTA INDONESIA 10210<br />PHONE : (021) 70081995 – 5703646<br />email : </span><a href="mailto:cfc2006@hotmail.com"><span style="font-size:85%;">cfc2006@hotmail.com</span></a><span style="font-size:85%;">, </span><a href="mailto:allergyonline@gmail.com"><span style="font-size:85%;">allergyonline@gmail.com</span></a><span style="font-size:85%;">,<br /></span><a href="http://pedophiliasexabuse.blogspot.com/"><span style="font-size:85%;">http://pedophiliasexabuse.blogspot.com/</span></a><br /><br /><br />Ketua International Criminal Investigative Training Asistence Program (ICITAP) Robert Barlow mengatakan, Bali dan beberapa wilayah lain di Indonesia, tercatat sebagai daerah rawan aksi pedofilia.<br />Dari data yang berhasil dikumpulkan ICITAP, tercatat sebanyak 318 upaya dilakukan para pedofil untuk dapat mengontak anak-anak di bawah umur di Indonesia, kata Barlow di Denpasar, Kamis (13/04).<br />Ketika bertemu dengan Kapolda Bali Irjen Pol Sunarko DA, Barlow menyebutkan, terkait cukup maraknya aksi tersebut, pihaknya siap membantu tugas-tugas Polri, baik dalam upaya pelacakan para pelaku maupun jaringan yang selama ini dipakai.<br />Menurut Barlow, para pelaku aksi yang telah mengekploitasi anak-anak di bawah umur tersebut, selama ini diketahui memakai jaringan dunia maya dalam menjerat calon korbannya di Indonesia, termasuk Bali.<br />Sehubungan dengan itu, Barlow meminta jajaran Polda Bali untuk lebih meningkatkan kewaspadaan dan daya lacaknya terhadap aksi cybert crime (CC) dan human trapicking (HT) yang dilancarkan para penjahat.<br />Kapolda Sunarko mengakui kalau aksi pedofilia yakni kejahatn seksual terhadap anak-anak di bawah umur, belakangan ini cukup marak di Pulau Dewata.<br />"Beberapa pelaku untuk kasus itu, telah berhasil kita ringkus.

Bocah IKSY dan IGYR merupakan dua korban hasil buruan dan bujukan SN untuk kemudian dapat diserahkan kepada Tretto.<br /><br />SN mengaku setiap kali menyerahkan para bocah untuk digauli di rumah tersangka, dirinya selalu mendapat imbalan uang baik dari Tretto maupun dengan cara memaksa meminta uang dari para korban.Guna pengusutan lebih lanjut, tersangka SN kini meringkuk di ruang tahanan Polsek Denpasar Selatan, sedangkan Tretto dan beberapa kaki tangannya yang lain, masih dalam pengejaran polisi.<br /><br /><br /></div><span style="font-size:85%;"></span>CLINIC FOR CHILDREN, we smile with youhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13937135211402900335noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7406455044074028187.post-68056426720988230972008-12-17T08:49:00.000-08:002008-12-21T07:14:37.108-08:00CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE AND PEDOPHILA : PORNOGRAPHY ON INTERNET<div align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">Pengaturan Pornografi di Internet </span></strong></div><div align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">.</span></strong></div><div align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:180%;"></span></strong></div><div align="center"></div>Sumber : Replubika, Selasa, 11 November 2008 pukul 13:17:00<br /><br /><div align="justify"><br />Sonny ZulhudaPengajar Hukum Cyberlaw di Multimedia University, Cyberjaya, MalaysiaBangsa Indonesia sekali lagi mencatat peristiwa penting dengan lahirnya Undang-undang Pornografi (UUP) yang bertujuan menciptakan kepastian hukum atas penggunaan, penyediaan, dan penyebaran produk dan jasa pornografi di tengah-tengah masyarakat Indonesia.

Namun, ini hanya mencoba melihat beberapa tantangan implementasinya di ruang maya.Konsolidasi perundanganYang pertama adalah perlunya konsolidasi perundangan. Perlu diingat bahwa UUP ini bukan satu-satunya UU di Indonesia yang mengatur muatan internet. UU No 11/2008 tentang Informasi dan Transaksi Elektronik (UUITE) di antaranya melarang siapa saja mendistribusikan, mentransmisikan dan/atau membuat dapat diaksesnya muatan elektronik yang melanggar kesusilaan. Ancamannya adalah penjara maksimal enam tahun atau denda maksimal satu miliar rupiah. Hukuman sepertiga lebih berat dapat dikenakan jika perbuatan itu menyangkut eksploitasi anak. Sementara itu, UUP mengancam orang yang memproduksi, menyebarluaskan, menyiarkan atau menyediakan pornografi di Internet dengan pidana penjara 1- 12 tahun atau denda setengah hingga enam miliar rupiah. Selain itu, mengunduh pornografi melalui sistem teknologi informasi dan komunikasi dapat dipidana maksimal empat tahun penjara atau denda dua miliar rupiah. Jika melibatkan anak, ancaman pidananya akan menjadi sepertiga lebih berat.Persinggungan antara dua produk UU kadang terjadi karena adanya perbedaan konteks dan tujuan perundangan. Untuk itu perlu dilihat keberadaan dua UU ini bukan menjadi kontradiksi, tapi justru complementary, yaitu saling melengkapi. Dalam konteks ini, UUP terlihat lebih keras karena secara khusus bertujuan menekan pornografi dan melindungi generasi muda. </div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify">Sementara itu, UUITE bertujuan memberikan kepastian hukum dalam penggunaan teknologi informasi, seperti transaksi elektronik. Keadaan ini memberikan pilihan lebih luas kepada penegak hukum dalam upaya menindak pelaku pidana terkait. Keduanya juga saling melengkapi, misalnya untuk hukum penggunaan alat bukti elektronik. Konsolidasi untuk menentukan aturan turunan menjadi mutlak diperlukan antara berbagai instansi pemerintah yang terkait dengan kedua UU ini.</div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify">Tanggung jawab UUP melarang pemuatan dan penyebarluasan pornografi di berbagai media termasuk internet. Masalahnya, sering kali pembuat atau pemasok pornografi di internet adalah anonim alias tidak bernama atau beridentitas. Hal ini sangat dimungkinkan mengingat fasilitas Internet seperti situs, blog, atau email pada umumnya tersedia secara gratis dan tidak memerlukan identitas asli pendaftar. Sementara itu, data mutakhir di Indonesia menunjukkan mayoritas pengguna internet memakai fasilitas umum, seperti warnet atau fasilitas kantor atau sekolah yang tidak diatur sistem aksesnya. Keadaan ini bisa mengaburkan identifikasi orang yang memproduksi, memuat atau menyebarkan pornografi di internet.Walhasil, dalam keadaan di mana pelaku asal pemuat pornografi tidak teridentifikasi, perhatian penegakan hukum hanya dapat difokuskan kepada penyedia akses terhadap muatan itu, yaitu para penyedia jasa internet (PJI) dan penyedia hosting. </div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify">Secara teknis, PJI yang fungsinya menyediakan koneksi internet kepada pelanggan berisiko dianggap menyebarluaskan atau menyediakan pornografi seperti yang dilarang oleh UUP atau mentransmisikan atau membuat dapat diaksesnya pornogafi sebagaimana dilarang di UUITE. Padahal, mengharapkan PJI melakukan kontrol editorial terhadap muatan yang masuk setiap hari sama saja seperti mengharapkan kematian industri tersebut. PJI tidak bisa disamakan dengan editor koran atau majalah yang mengontrol muatan yang dapat dan tidak dapat masuk ke kolom media mereka. Dalam bahasa the European Directives on Electronic Commerce, fungsi PJI adalah sekadar pipa saluran (conduit). Prinsip ini juga diadopsi oleh berbagai negara dalam hal pengaturan muatan isi internet. Ini dikarenakan PJI tidak tahu-menahu isi dari muatan informasi yang disalurkan olehnya kepada pelanggan, persis seperti posisi penyelenggara telekomunikasi telepon.</div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify">Jadi, sejauh mana pertanggungjawaban PJI dalam hal ini? Dapatkah mereka dianggap menyebarkan, menyiarkan, atau membuat dapat diaksesnya pornografi di internet dan diancam pasal pidana? Ketidakpastian hukum ini perlu dijawab dengan peraturan turunan, baik melalui peraturan pemerintah, peraturan menteri, atau lainnya.</div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify"><strong><span style="font-size:130%;">Jangkauan penegakan hukum</span></strong></div><div align="justify">Isu jangkauan (yurisdiksi) hukum dalam media Internet menjadi tantangan tersendiri. Sebagaimana diketahui, media internet bersifat lintas teritorial. Produksi dan jasa pornografi internet yang dilarang melalui UUP sebagian besarnya berasal dari luar negeri dan dikonsumsi di dalam negeri. Dapatkah UUP mengatasi hal ini? Kita bisa menilik UUITE yang menyatakan bahwa UU tersebut berlaku terhadap orang yang berada di luar wilayah hukum Indonesia selama perbuatannya memiliki akibat hukum di Indonesia atau merugikan kepentingan Indonesia. Meski begitu, di lapangan masih tersisa pertanyaan tindakan bagaimana yang dapat dilakukan. Jangan-jangan, akhirnya PJI juga yang akan dibebankan dan diminta untuk memblokir muatan internet itu seperti yang terjadi dalam kasus film Fitna.Dalam konteks ini, diplomasi dan kerja sama internasional menjadi sebuah keharusan. Apalagi mengingat maraknya sindikat pornografi dan pedofilia (termasuk penyelundupan manusia) bekerja secara profesional dalam jaringan global. Dalam kaitan ini pula perlu kita dukung usaha pemerintah RI untuk mengadopsi atau mengaksepsi traktat internasional terkait dengan tindak pidana siber yang disponsori oleh Masyarakat Uni Eropa (Cybercrime Convention 2001) yang salah satunya menyediakan mekanisme universal (seperti mutual legal assistance) dalam penanggulangan tindak pidana di alam maya termasuk pornografi anak.Pendiri Pusat Internet dan Masyarakat Universitas Stanford, Prof Lawrence Lessig, menyatakan bahwa media Internet tidak bisa lepas dari hukum dan pengaturan. Menurutnya, menganggap internet sebagai ruang bebas hukum adalah sebuah kesalahan berpikir. Prestasi UUP dan UUITE adalah menunjukkan kesalahan berpikir itu dengan memberikan kepastian hukum dalam dunia Internet di Indonesia. Namun, perlu strategi dan mekanisme lebih lanjut untuk memastikan efektivitasnya agar dunia internet Indonesia menjadi ruang hukum yang mendorong integritas dan kapasitas bangsa. </div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify"><span style="font-size:85%;">Provided by<br />DR WIDODO JUDARWANTO</span></div><div align="justify"><span style="font-size:85%;"><strong><span style="font-size:130%;">SAVE INDONESIAN CHILD FROM PEDOPHILIA AND SEX ABUSE</span></strong><br /><em><span style="color:#ff0000;">WE SMILE WITH YOU, WORKING TOGETHER SUPPORT ALL OF CHILDREN</span></em><br />Yudhasmara Foundation<br />JL TAMAN BENDUNGAN ASAHAN 5 JAKARTA PUSAT, JAKARTA INDONESIA 10210<br />PHONE : (021) 70081995 – 5703646<br />email : </span><a href="mailto:cfc2006@hotmail.com"><span style="font-size:85%;">cfc2006@hotmail.com</span></a><span style="font-size:85%;">, </span><a href="mailto:allergyonline@gmail.com"><span style="font-size:85%;">allergyonline@gmail.com</span></a><span style="font-size:85%;">,<br /></span><a href="http://pedophiliasexabuse.blogspot.com/"><span style="font-size:85%;">http://pedophiliasexabuse.blogspot.com/</span></a></div><div align="justify"></div>CLINIC FOR CHILDREN, we smile with youhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13937135211402900335noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7406455044074028187.post-75065932624697303462008-12-17T08:44:00.000-08:002008-12-21T07:15:34.444-08:00CETS : PREVENTION OF PEDOPHILIA ACTIVITIES ON WEB<div align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">Agar Polisi Makin Mudah Menangkap Pedofil</span></strong> </div><br />sumber, Kompas,Kamis, 23 Agustus 2007 - 17:23 wib<br /><br /><br />JAKARTA, KCM - Nyatanya, kegiatan ber-chatting ria yang makin digandrungi banyak kalangan muda menjadi lahan subur bagi kejahatan pedofilia. Polisi, seperti diungkapkan Komisaris Besar Petrus Reinhart Golose, menengarai para pelaku kejahatan seksual terhadap anak-anak banyak "mencari" korbannya lewat media interaktif seperti itu.<br />"Lagi, mana tahu kita kalau yang kita ajak chatting adalah pelaku kejahatan? Kan mereka pakai nama lain kalau chatting," kata Kepala Unit Informasi Teknologi & Cyber Crime Direktorat II Ekonomi dan Khusus Badan Reserse Kriminal Kepolisian Negara Republik Indonesia (Bareskrim Mabes Polri) itu.<br />Apa yang diungkapkan Petrus dalam perbincangan bersama pers yang difasilitasi Microsoft Indonesia pada Rabu (22/8) memang mewakili keprihatinan banyak pihak, termasuk polisi tentunya, atas makin maraknya kejahatan pedofilia di tanah air. Sebab, seturut catatan Ron O’grady (2001), pedofilia memiliki tiga ciri ekstrim dibandingkan kejahatan seksual lain. Selain doyan berusaha sekuat tenaga mencari sekaligus menguasai aspek kehidupan korban, pelaku kejahatan ini pun biasa mafhum dengan kemajuan teknologi informasi.<br />"Pelaku pedofilia cenderung menyimpan dokumentasi korbannya dengan rapi, seperti foto, video, catatan, atau rekaman percakapannya dengan korban," catat O’grady mewanti-wanti.<br />Artinya, risiko kejahatan pedofilia seiring dengan pertumbuhan penyebaran teknologi di masyarakat. Padahal, statistik pengguna internet di dunia per 30 Juni 2007 menunjukkan Indonesia berada di peringkat 14 negara pengguna internet tertinggi di dunia. Dengan peningkatan pengguna hingga 900 persen pada periode 2000-2007, Indonesia, boleh dikata, rawan akan tindak kejahatan eksploitasi anak lewat internet.<br />CETS<br />Maka, bertolak dari makin melambungnyanya jumlah kasus yang masuk dalam kategori eksploitasi anak tersebut, sejak setahun lalu, Microsoft mengaplikasikan Child Exploitation Tracking System (CETS) di Indonesia. Didedikasikan kepada Polri, Indonesia menjadi negara pertama di Asia dan kedua di dunia yang menggunakan sistem ini. Kanada adalah negara pertama di dunia yang mengaplikasikan CETS.<br />CETS merupakan sistem berbasis jaringan yang dikembangkan oleh Kepolisian Kanada, para ahli penegak hukum internasional, dan Microsoft untuk membantu agen-agen kepolisian dalam berbagi dan menganalisa informasi guna melacak para predator anak online. Saat inisiatif ini dimulai pada tahun 2003, para teknisi Microsoft bekerja sama dengan penegak hukum di Kanada untuk merancang dan menyesuaikan piranti lunak yang memungkinkan pihak kepolisian dapat berkomunikasi satu sama lain secara real time antar kota dan negara.<br />Pengembangan CETS awalnya berdasarkan permintaan dari email pribadi Detektif Sersan Paul Gillespie, dari Kepolisian Toronto, Kanada kepada Chairman dan Chief Software Architect Microsoft Bill Gates pada Januari 2003. CETS secara resmi diluncurkan di Indonesia pada tanggal 28 Juni 2006. Peluncuran CETS di Indonesia merupakan kolaborasi kerja sama tidak saja dengan Kepolisian Negara RI, namun juga dengan Kedutaan Besar Australia, Kanada dan Amerika Serikat untuk Republik Indonesia.<br />Kepolisian Federal Australia (Australian Federal Police/AFP) telah menjadi instrument pendorong pengembangan CETS di seluruh departemen Kepolisian Negara RI, membagi jaringan yang diimplementasikan oleh AFP. AFP juga menyediakan fasilitas pelatihan untuk sistem CETS di JCLEC di Semarang.<br />Pada bulan Oktober 2004, CETS versi beta diuji untuk menghubungkan informasi di sistem komputer Departemen Homeland Security AS ke beberapa investigasi FBI, dengan informasi mengenai pornografi anak di Toronto. Hasilnya, anak perempuan berumur 4 tahun teridentifikasi dan diselamatkan oleh Kepolisian Toronto dari lelaki yang mengambil gambar dan melecehkan dia.<br />Standar terbuka Di Indonesia, CETS juga digunakan sebagai bagian dari upaya global untuk memberantas eksploitasi anak. Karena itu, untuk mengakomodasi lingkungan kerja yang heterogen, aplikasi ini dibangun menggunakan standar terbuka sehingga aparat penegak hukum dapat saling tukar menukar dokumen dan mengolahnya dengan mudah.<br />"Microsoft membangun CETS dengan sebuah format dokumen terbuka Open XML yang memungkinkan semua pihak dapat berkolaborasi dan berintegrasi," kata Drajat Panjawi, Direktur Corporate Affairs, PT Microsoft Indonesia. Menggunakan Open XML, CETS merapikan pengumpulan data secara manual menjadi digital berkenaan dengan penanganan kasus eksploitasi anak.<br />CETS membawa kekuatan internet keluar dari jangkauan para predator dan membawanya kepada kepolisian. Sistem pelacak seperti ini merupakan contoh nyata integrasi antar penegak hukum dan industri untuk memberantas kejahatan para pedofil yang memanfaatkan internet.<br />"Sebelum ada CETS, aparat kami harus melakukan sortir secara manual melalui dokumen-dokumen dan foto-foto, sehingga menjadikan kecil kemungkinan untuk bisa berbagi informasi. " Ujar Petrus R. Golose, Komisaris Besar Polisi, Kepala Unit Cyber Crime (Bareskrim Polri). Adanya format dokumen terbuka Open XML, lanjutnya, mampu mengakomodasi lingkungan kerja Polri yang heterogen.<br />Secara teknis, file yang dikumpulkan untuk keperluan analisis sebuah kasus dapat dipertukarkan ke berbagai unit kerja kepolisian yang berbeda lokasi tanpa harus meng-install aplikasi CETS secara penuh. Karena formatnya yang terbuka (Open XML) dan ditampilkan di sebuah jaringan intranet, data di CETS dapat diakses dengan menggunakan platform apapun dan dari manapun. Berbekal smart card alias kartu pintar, seorang penyidik polisi dalam kasus pedofilia, bisa langsung memperoleh data yang diperlukan.<br />"Jadi, kami juga bisa mengambil keputusan cepat untuk kasus-kasus seperti ini," kata Petrus. Namun, masih dalam segala keterbatasan akses internet berikut sumber daya aparat kepolisian, setidaknya, sudah delapan kepolisian daerah (polda) yakni Sumatera Utara, Kepulauan Riau, Jawa Barat, DKI Jakarta, Yogyakarta, Jawa Timur, Bali, dan Nusa Tenggara Barat yang mengadopsi CETS. Sementara, server-nya ditempatkan di Markas Besar (Mabes) Polri.<br />Cuma, seperti diingatkan Petrus, CETS dengan segala kelebihannya, pada satu sisi lain tidak membuat polisi serta-merta menangkap pelaku kejahatan pedofilia. Ditambah dengan sifatnya yang cenderung transnasional, penangkapan hingga proses hukum pelaku kejahatan ini tetap harus melalui prosedur-prosedur manual yang acap melibatkan jaringan interpol hingga pemerintah negara-negara bersangkutan.<br /><br /><span style="font-size:85%;">Provided by<br />DR WIDODO JUDARWANTO</span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><strong><span style="font-size:130%;">SAVE INDONESIAN CHILD FROM PEDOPHILIA AND SEX ABUSE</span></strong><br />WE SMILE WITH YOU, WORKING TOGETHER SUPPORT ALL OF CHILDREN<br />Yudhasmara Foundation<br />JL TAMAN BENDUNGAN ASAHAN 5 JAKARTA PUSAT, JAKARTA INDONESIA 10210<br />PHONE : (021) 70081995 – 5703646<br />email : </span><a href="mailto:cfc2006@hotmail.com"><span style="font-size:85%;">cfc2006@hotmail.com</span></a><span style="font-size:85%;">, </span><a href="mailto:allergyonline@gmail.com"><span style="font-size:85%;">allergyonline@gmail.com</span></a><span style="font-size:85%;">,<br /></span><a href="http://pedophiliasexabuse.blogspot.com/"><span style="font-size:85%;">http://pedophiliasexabuse.blogspot.com/</span></a><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"></span>CLINIC FOR CHILDREN, we smile with youhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13937135211402900335noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7406455044074028187.post-81338340262232307742008-12-16T10:54:00.000-08:002008-12-21T01:23:36.318-08:00FACT SHEET : CHILDREN SEXUAL ABUSE WHO VICTIM AND THE ABUSER<div align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">THE FACT CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE</span></strong></div><div align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">.</span></strong></div><div align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:180%;"></span></strong></div><div align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:85%;"></span></strong></div><div align="left"><strong><span style="font-size:85%;">Provided by<br />DR WIDODO JUDARWANTO</span></strong></div><div align="left"><strong><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-size:130%;">SAVE INDONESIAN CHILD FROM PEDOPHILIA AND SEX ABUSE</span><br /><span style="color:#ff0000;">WE SMILE WITH YOU, WORKING TOGETHER SUPPORT ALL OF CHILDREN<br /></span>Yudhasmara Foundation<br />JL TAMAN BENDUNGAN ASAHAN 5 JAKARTA PUSAT, JAKARTA INDONESIA 10210<br />PHONE : (021) 70081995 – 5703646<br />email : </span><a href="mailto:cfc2006@hotmail.com"><span style="font-size:85%;">cfc2006@hotmail.com</span></a><span style="font-size:85%;">, </span><a href="mailto:allergyonline@gmail.com"><span style="font-size:85%;">allergyonline@gmail.com</span></a><span style="font-size:85%;">,<br /></span><a href="http://pedophiliasexabuse.blogspot.com/"><span style="font-size:85%;">http://pedophiliasexabuse.blogspot.com/</span></a></strong></div><div align="left"></div><div align="center">.</div><div align="center">.</div><br /><br /><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">The Victim</span></strong><br /></span><br /><ol><li>Victims of child sexual abuse are found in all classes and ethnocultural communities. Children who have physical or mental disabilities are especially vulnerable to sexual abuse.<br /></li><li>Children are not able to give informed consent to sexual activity because they cannot fully understand adult-child sexual contact or predict the consequences, and because the adult is abusing a position of authority over the child.<br /></li><li>Children who are isolated from others are at greater risk of being sexually abused. These children have little contact with friends, brothers and sisters or adults whom they can trust. Some abusers are able to take advantage of a child who is already isolated. Other abusers manage to isolate the child by manipulating people and situations. As a result of sexual abuse, some children may further isolate themselves because they feel different or afraid of what others will think.<br /></li><li>There is a greater possibility of serious distress to the child if the abuser is a family member, or if the child does not receive support from his or her non-abusive parent. The long-term consequences are also worse if force or the threat of force was used in the commission of the abuse, or if there were many incidents of abuse over a long period.<br /></li><li>As mentioned above, children find it difficult to break the silence. In a child's world, adults control most of the resources and seem to know all the answers. If the abuser threatens the child or someone the child loves, the child may not question the adult's power to carry out the threat.<br /></li><li>Children always want to tell about their abuse so that it can be stopped, but they are often afraid that they will not be believed or protected, or they are afraid of what might happen if they do tell. It is normal for children to delay telling about their abuse for a year or more after it occurs. They may talk about the abuse more readily if another victim discloses abuse by the same offender or if they are asked direct questions about the possibility of abuse.<br /></li><li>Especially in cases of incest, when the abuser is a close family member, children may not reveal their sexual victimization until they become adults. Many never tell even then. The abusers enforce secrecy and create in the child a fear of destroying the privacy and otherwise intact sense of security provided by the family.<br /></li><li>There is little evidence that many children deliberately make false allegations or misinterpret appropriate adult-child contact as sexual abuse. In the few recorded cases in which children appear to have made false allegations, it has usually been the result of manipulation by an adult.<br /></li><li>False denials of sexual abuse (saying it did not happen when it did) and recanting a disclosure of abuse (denying that it happened after having told someone about being abused) are much more common than false reports.<br /></li><li>Children sometimes recant truthful allegations of abuse. This is not surprising because the child naturally fears the impact that a disclosure will have on the family, or fears that he or she will not be believed. As well, the child may recant in fearful recognition of the fact that the offending adult has so much more power.<br /></li><li>When child victims receive professional support prior to giving testimony in court, their statements are more likely to be clear and accurately reflect the time and details of the event. The experience is also less stressful for the child who has received such support.<br /></li><li>Children vary in their responses to sexual abuse. The manner in which the adults react to the child's disclosure is an important factor in influencing how the child comes to view the abuse and his or her own role in it. Being believed and having family support can help the child to cope and adjust and can decrease some of the traumatic effects of sexual abuse.<br /></li><li>Adult women sexually molested as children are more likely than non-victims to suffer from both physical and psychological problems. Abusive and manipulative men may target these women as victims in adult relationships because of their vulnerability. Sexual abuse victims who were also physically or emotionally abused as children are the most likely to suffer from health problems and further abuse as adults.<br /></li><li>Men who were sexually abused as children may also suffer from depression, anxiety and suicidal thoughts and behaviour, especially if they were abused more than once. Those who experienced both emotional abuse and multiple acts of sexual abuse are the most likely to have poor mental health and to report sexual interest in, or sexual contact with, children.<br /></li></ol><p><strong><span style="font-size:180%;"><span style="color:#ff0000;">The Abuser</span><br /></span></strong></p><ol><li>Most offenders are not strangers to their victims. In most cases, they are well known to their victims. Approximately 25 percent of offenders are adolescents.<br /></li><li>Most of the reported abusers are male.<br /></li><li>It is the offender who initiates the sexual activity. The offender is responsible for the abuse no matter what the child does.<br /></li><li>A recent Canadian study revealed that more than 40 percent of convicted child molesters were sexually abused as children. They tended to choose victims close to the age at which they were first victimized.<br /></li><li>Offenders use a number of tactics to gain access to children and to ensure their victim's silence. These tactics include the use of threats, physical force, bribery, and other forms of physical and psychological coercion.<br /></li><li>Some offenders have abused more than 70 children before any of the victims disclosed the abuse. In cases in which one offender has abused a large number of victims, the abused children are more likely to be male.<br /></li><li>Incest offenders reflect the same range of education, religion, occupation, intelligence and mental health status as can be found in a representative cross-section of the general population. Abusers are found among all ages, ethnocultural communities and social classes.<br /></li><li>Most sexual abuse takes place in the context of an ongoing relationship between the abuser and the child. This long-term relationship gives the offender opportunity to exploit the child's desires and fears. An incestuous father, for example, may give his child special privileges or gifts to obtain his or her cooperation and silence.</li></ol>CLINIC FOR CHILDREN, we smile with youhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13937135211402900335noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7406455044074028187.post-15493855536132809232008-12-14T17:01:00.000-08:002008-12-21T01:23:52.948-08:00NEWS AND REPORT : SEX ABUSE & SEX TRAFFICKING IN INDONESIA<div align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">Pelecehan dan Perkosaan Meningkat di Kalsel</span></strong><br /></div><a title=" " href="http://kompas.co.id/data/photo/2008/09/12/063026p.jpg" rev="loadarea::#" rel="enlargeimage::mouseover"></a><br />Sumber : Kompas, Senin, 13 Oktober 2008 14:11 WIB<br /><br />BANJARMASIN, SENIN - Kasus pelecehan seksual dan perkosaan terhadap remaja di bawah umur di Kalimantan Selatan (Kalsel) dalam dua bulan terakhir meningkat. Ketua Komisi Perlindungan Anak Indonesia (KPAID) Kalsel, Djumri, S.Ag, Senin, mengungkapkan, dalam dua bulan terakhir, minimal ada tiga kasus pemerkosaan terhadap anak dibawah umur yang sedang dalam proses hukum. Pada beberapa bulan sebelumnya, hanya dua kasus perkosaan yang melapor ke KPAID hingga proses hukum di pengadilan. Jumlah tersebut, tambahnya, hanya sebagian kecil dari kasus pelecehan maupun perkosaan di Kalsel. Kenyataan di lapangan masih cukup banyak.<br /><br />"Saat kita terjun langsung ke desa-desa, sebenarnya banyak terjadi kasus pelecehan maupun perkosaan terhadap anak-anak di bawah umur, tapi kita kesulitan untuk membantu mereka untuk proses secara hukum," katanya. Hal tersebut terjadi karena warga atau keluarga korban memilih "menyembunyikan" kejadian pelecehan maupun pemerkosaan yang menimpa anak maupun saudaranya. Keluarga korban biasanya merasa malu, jika kejadian atau aib keluarganya terbongkar sehingga mereka memilih menerima jalan damai untuk menyelesaikan persoalan tersebut daripada memperkarakannya ke pengadilan.<br /><br />Beberapa kasus perkosaan setelah diproses hukum, yang terungkap ternyata karena suka sama suka sehingga sulit untuk menjerat pelaku dengan undang-undang perlindungan anak yang hukumannya lebih berat.<br /><br />Penanganan kasus perkosaan degan menggunakan KUHP, menurut dia, efek jeranya sangat kurang karena hukumannya relatif ringan. "Pelecehan seksual bukan hanya kasus perkosaan yang sama-sama dilakukan oleh anak-anak di bawah umur, tetapi juga kasus sodomi," demikian Djumri.<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-size:85%;">Provided by<br />DR WIDODO JUDARWANTO</span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><strong><span style="font-size:130%;">SAVE INDONESIAN CHILD FROM PEDOPHILIA AND SEX ABUSE</span></strong><br /><em><span style="color:#ff0000;">WE SMILE WITH YOU, WORKING TOGETHER SUPPORT ALL OF CHILDREN</span></em><br />Organized by Yudhasmara Foundation<br />JL TAMAN BENDUNGAN ASAHAN 5 JAKARTA PUSAT, JAKARTA INDONESIA 10210<br />PHONE : (021) 70081995 – 5703646<br />email : </span><a href="mailto:wido25@hotmail.com"><span style="font-size:85%;">wido25@hotmail.com</span></a><span style="font-size:85%;">, </span><a href="mailto:cfc2006@hotmail.com"><span style="font-size:85%;">cfc2006@hotmail.com</span></a><br /><a href="http://pedophiliasexabuse.blogspot.com/"><span style="font-size:85%;">http://pedophiliasexabuse.blogspot.com/</span></a>CLINIC FOR CHILDREN, we smile with youhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13937135211402900335noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7406455044074028187.post-10036911253827315092008-12-14T16:56:00.000-08:002008-12-21T01:24:08.972-08:00NEWS AND REPORT : SEX ABUSE & SEX TRAFFICKING IN INDONESIA<p align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">Putus Sekolah, Jual Keperawanan Rp 170.000</span></strong></p><strong></strong><p align="justify"><br /><a title=" " href="http://kompas.co.id/data/photo/2008/08/04/075208p.jpg" rev="loadarea::#" rel="enlargeimage::mouseover"></a><br /><br />Sumber : Kompas, Senin, 4 Agustus 2008 07:47 WIB</p><p align="justify"></p><p align="justify">SETAHUN yang lalu, Janet Kimani masih menghabiskan hari-harinya di sekolah atau bertengkar dengan adik laki-lakinya soal acara televisi. Tidak ada lain yang dipikirkan kecuali dunia anak-anak yang menyenangkan.Namun, saat ini ia menghabiskan siang harinya dengan tidur karena malam nanti ia harus menjual tubuhnya. Ya, Janet harus mengaryakan tubuh kurusnya yang baru berusia 14 tahun demi 160 shilling Kenya (setara dengan Rp 27.000) untuk satu jam layanan syahwat. "Sekarang banyak gadis seperti saya bekerja di jalanan," kata Janet ketika ditemui di pinggir jalan salah satu sudut Eldoret, sebuah kota di bagian barat Kenya, pekan lalu.Prostitusi dan eksploitasi seksual saat ini sedang "naik daun" ketika kerusuhan berdarah mencabut nyawa lebih dari 1.000 warga Kenya akhir tahun lalu, termasuk di Eldoret. Kerusuhan itu menghancurkan perekonomian dan menyeret warga Kenya ke jurang kemiskinan. Pada saat seperti itu, seperti di tempat lain, ribuan anak dipaksa meninggalkan sekolah dan bekerja di jalanan untuk menyambung hidup. Janet salah satu di antara mereka.Tidak ada angka yang pasti berapa ratus atau ribu anak gadis terjerumus dalam prostitusi. Yang jelas, fenomena ini membuat miris para aktivis kemusiaan dan dokter karena sudah dapat dipastikan angka korban HIV/AIDS meroket."Dengan berjalannya waktu, kami mulai merasakan dampak konflik ini, yakni HIV dan AIDS," kata Teresa Omondi, Kepala Pusat Pemulihan Kekerasan Gender di Rumah Sakit Perempuan Nairobi.Sebuah laporan yang dipublikasikan lembaga itu menjadi semacam tanda bahaya. Disebutkan, sudah ada ketakutan bahwa prestasi mengurangi prevalensi HIV di Kenya akan musnah sia-sia. Dewan Pengawas AIDS Nasional Kenya juga menggelar studi dampak kekerasan ketika perkosaan massal dan kejahatan seksual lain terjadi selama kerusuhan itu.Sejumlah pekerja seks belia yang diwawancarai mengaku bekerja tanpa kondom karena saat ini persaingan semakin keras karena semakin banyak teman sebaya dan senasib mereka turun ke jalan."Memang kami biasanya pakai kondom, tetapi ada kalanya tidak," kata Milka Muthoni (17). Gadis ini sebenarnya butuh setahun lagi untuk menyelesaikan SMA, tetapi tekanan ekonomi membuat pendidikannya terhenti dan memilih menjual tubuh."Saya tahu ini bisnis yang berisiko. Suatu kali saya pergi ke rumah sakit dengan beberapa luka dan penyakit. Tapi bagaimana lagi, saya tidak punya pilihan lain," katanya.Milka yang tinggal di Eldoret mengaku diusir dari rumah ketika orangtuanya tahu ia menjual diri. "Tetapi sekarang saya belanja untuk mereka, jadi mereka tidak tanya-tanya lagi dari mana saya mendapat uang," tuturnya.Pertumpahan darah itu pecah menyusul sengketa hasil pemilu pada 27 Desember 2007 dan itu menjadi saat paling kelam dalam sejarah Kenya sejak merdeka dari Inggris pada 1963. Sengketa politik itu berujung pada kerusuhan dan perkelahian antaretnis yang akhirnya mengungkap lebarnya jurang pemisah antara si kaya dan si miskin.Memang akhirnya pembagian kekuasaan di antara para elite menghentikan konflik ini. Presiden Mwai Kibaki tetap menduduki kursinya, sementara lawan politiknya, Raila Odinga, menjadi perdana menteri. Namun, Kenya telanjur kehilangan 1 miliar dollar karena kerusuhan ini meski sekarang pelan-pelan perekonomian pulih dan turis kembali memadati pantai-pantai di tepi Samudra Hindia. Sayangnya kerusakan nyaris mustahil dipulihkan seperti semula. Ribuan warga Kenya masih tinggal di pengungsian, setelah kabur dari desa ketika kerusuhan datang. Banyak siswa tidak kembali ke kelas atau putus sekolah karena tidak bisa lagi membayar uang sekolah yang naik mengikuti harga bahan bakar minyak.</p><p align="justify">Musai Ndunda, Ketua Asosiasi Orangtua Kenya, mengatakan, sekitar 40.000 siswa usia SMP putus sekolah Februari lalu. Itu angka terakhir yang bisa didapat. Ia yakin masih banyak yang tidak tercatat. Mungkin juga sudah ada yang kembali ke sekolah tetapi keluar lagi.Bagi Janet, kembali ke Kiambaa Primary School bukan termasuk pilihan yang bisa diambil karena gedung itu sudah rata dengan tanah setelah dibakar massa saat kerusuhan.Dia sempat sebulan tinggal di kamp penampungan di Eldoret. Sampai kemudian ia mengamati temannya, Nyambura, selalu punya makanan dan pakaian bagus meski sama-sama tinggal di kamp. Suatu hari, Nyambura mengakui ia menjual tubuhnya dan mengajak Janet mengunjungi tempat kerjanya, sebuah pub."Sebenarnya saya enggan, tapi Nyambura meyakinkan saya bahwa laki-laki itu akan membayar. Saya belum pernah minum alkohol, tetapi saya sangat butuh uang, jadi saya ikut saja," tutur Janet mengenang hari pertamanya masuk dalam kehidupan malam.Malam itu keperawanannya dihargai 1.000 shilling atau sekitar Rp 170.000. Dia membawakan makanan untuk kedua orangtua dan enam saudaranya. Saat itu ia mengaku punya pekerjaan di kota, tetapi tidak memberi tahu pekerjaan apa dan mereka pun juga tidak bertanya."Orangtua saya sudah miskin, bahkan sebelum kerusuhan. </p><p align="justify">Mereka tidak bisa membeli bahan-bahan kebutuhan. Sekarang, dengan saya di jalanan, kalau sedang untung ya bisa bawa pulang 2.000 shilling. Itu setelah tidur dengan lima atau enam pria," katanya.Janet jelas tidak punya harapan kembali ke sekolah. Orangtuanya tidak punya pekerjaan sehingga penghasilan Janet sangat penting untuk menyambung hidup keluarganya. "Memang pekerjaan ini awalnya sangat menyiksa. Tidur dengan pria-pria itu sangat mengerikan karena kadang-kadang mereka juga kasar dan menyakiti saya. Tapi kelamaan saya terbiasa," katanya.Prostitusi memang sudah lama menjadi persoalan di Kenya, khususnya di kawasan wisata. Agnetta Mirikau, aktivis perlindungan anak di UNICEF Kenya, mengatakan, peningkatan jumlah pelacur anak mudah terlihat di kota-kota yang paling parah tingkat kerusuhannya, seperti Eldoret, Naivasha, dan Nakuru. Eldoret merupakan lokasi kerusuhan paling keras dan berdarah seusai pemilu. Di kota ini sebuah gereja dibakar, padahal gedung itu dipenuhi orang yang sedang mencari perlindungan. Puluhan orang tewas dalam insiden itu."Orang-orang dewasa sekarang mengumpankan anak-anaknya karena mereka tidak punya penghasilan apa pun. Anak-anak putus sekolah dan mereka ingin membantu menghasilkan sesuatu untuk orangtuanya. Jika tidak ada makanan dan mereka merasa bertanggung jawab atas nasib saudara-saudaranya, maka mereka akan keluar rumah dan mencari uang untuk beli makanan," kata Mirikau.Wali Kota Eldoret Sammy Rutto baru-baru ini memerintahkan polisi memberantas prostitusi setelah mendengar ada gadis 12 tahun terlihat nongkrong di bar. "Ini bisnis yang tidak bisa kami biarkan. Mereka harus mencari alternatif lain untuk hidup. Pelacuran pasti akan memperluas penyebaran AIDS, dan banyak orangtua kehilangan anak-anaknya," kata Sammy.Pertanyaannya, apakah alternatif itu ada, atau bisakah pejabat seperti Sammy Rutto dan politisi yang berebut kekuasaan itu menyediakan pekerjaan lain yang tidak berbahaya. </p><p align="justify"><br /><span style="font-size:85%;">Provided by<br />DR WIDODO JUDARWANTO</span></p><p align="justify"><span style="font-size:85%;"><strong><span style="font-size:130%;">SAVE INDONESIAN CHILD FROM PEDOPHILIA AND SEX ABUSE</span></strong><br /><span style="color:#ff0000;"><em>WE SMILE WITH YOU, WORKING TOGETHER SUPPORT ALL OF CHILDREN<br /></em></span>Organized by Yudhasmara Foundation<br />JL TAMAN BENDUNGAN ASAHAN 5 JAKARTA PUSAT, JAKARTA INDONESIA 10210<br />PHONE : (021) 70081995 – 5703646<br />email : </span><a href="mailto:wido25@hotmail.com"><span style="font-size:85%;">wido25@hotmail.com</span></a><span style="font-size:85%;">, </span><a href="mailto:cfc2006@hotmail.com"><span style="font-size:85%;">cfc2006@hotmail.com</span></a><br /><a href="http://pedophiliasexabuse.blogspot.com/"><span style="font-size:85%;">http://pedophiliasexabuse.blogspot.com/</span></a></p>CLINIC FOR CHILDREN, we smile with youhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13937135211402900335noreply@blogger.com0
