Looking for an open access anonymized data set for CSA

Post Body

I'm trying to find out the relative probabilities of the relationship between the abuser and the victim in CSA cases. Since no one seems to extract the data in ways that will help, I need to find a source of anonymous data that has relevant fields.

A culled data set where specific records have been removed because they could lead to identifying the people is fine. I do not need to know the location, nor the economic class. Because I'm looking for low probability events, it needs to be a substantial size. I'd like a hundred thousand records of events, where the following fields are known for each event.

Specifics:

For victim: Victim's age when abuse started, sex, nature of the abuse.

For abuser Abuser's age when abuse started. sex, relationship to victim

Relationship: 1st degree relative (Parent, brother, sister), 2nd degree relative (uncle/aunt, cousin, grandparent) Neighbour, family friend, authority figure (coach, minister, teacher, scoutmaster, employer, etc)

So far attempts to find data on places like pubmed have resulted in:

  • Only an abstract is available without payment.
  • Papers are only summaries of other papers/reports.
  • Datasets are not open to the general public
  • Datasets have substantial price tags on them.
  • Datasets are extremely selective.
  • Data does not link abuser and victim in a 1:1 manner.

I come from a CSA background. I was molested at age 3. My sister says, that mom said it was a neighbour two doors down.

I think even then my mom was covering up. It happened multiple times over a period of I think at least a couple months, and less than a year and a half. The multiple times poses a logistical problem. The two people who had the best access was my mother during the day (stay at home mom) and my brother (age 13) during the night. (separate bedroom opposite end of house, in basement.)

I can't confront them. Mom is dead. Brother is deep in Alzheimers.

While stats on this won't form an absolute answer, they form grist for the mill.
