The victims have demonstrated extraordinary courage and fortitude by coming forward.
I would strongly encourage anyone who has been the victim of such crimes to come forward and report the incident to us. We will provide you and your family with the assistance of specially trained detectives and support workers, and we will actively listen to your concerns.
