4. Online child sexual exploitation: Criminal justice outcomes of police-reported incidents in Canada, 2014 to 2021
Articles and reports: 85-002-X202500100003
Description: Online child sexual exploitation captures a wide range of criminal offences involving victims aged 17 years and younger, including luring, invitation to sexual touching, and non-consensual distribution of intimate images, as well as online child pornography (including child pornography generated using artificial intelligence).
Using a data file linking police-reported data from the Uniform Crime Reporting Survey to court data from the Integrated Criminal Court Survey, this Juristat article explores how online child sexual exploitation incidents progress through the criminal justice system, from police to courts. More specifically, the article examines the criminal justice outcomes (i.e., charges laid, decisions made in relation to these charges and, where possible, sentencing outcomes) of online child sexual exploitation incidents reported by police between 2014 and 2021 that resulted in a completed court case between fiscal years 2013/2014 and 2022/2023.

Teens’ attitudes towards violence and control in intimate relationships are also presented. Findings are based on self-reported data collected through the 2018 Survey of Safety in Public and Private Spaces and on police-reported data from the Uniform Crime Reporting Survey. Where possible, comparisons between genders, age groups and other populations of interest are presented.
