Police Oracle - Subscription at source 12/9/2022 News Co-offending and police notification: the differential reporting of young groups to the police Despite a wealth of research on the decision to notify police following victimization, there has been relative inattention to the role of a basic feature of crime: the tendency for individuals to offend in groups. Following this, the current research examines the influence of co-offending on the decision to notify police using information from the National Crime Victimization Survey. Results indicate that the co-offending is significantly and positively related to the likelihood of notification. Findings further indicate that this relationship is moderated by co-offender characteristics, such that young co-offenders and, to a lesser extent, male co-offenders are more likely than their counterparts to be reported to police. These results have important implications for understanding the invocation of both formal social control and disparities in these processes, indicating that co-offending not only has a direct effect on notification, but that it also changes the effect of offender characteristics on this decision.

Police Professional 12/9/2022 News Pilot of video recorded evidence-in-chief statements AUSTRALIA: A video recorded evidence-in-chief (VRE) statement is a victim statement that is video recorded by a police officer at the time of the incident. They replace traditional written statements police officers take from domestic violence victims. They may be used in court as part of the victim’s evidence in a criminal proceeding. The criminal process can be a traumatising and stressful experience for domestic violence victims. Usually, victims must re-tell their story several times, including in court. It can be difficult for victims to recall events by the time of trial, and re-traumatising to re-tell their story. The Queensland Government is piloting the use of VRE statements. The pilot is taking place over 12 months in the Southport and Ipswich Magistrates Courts. The pilot commenced September 2022. The pilot will be independently evaluated to see if VRE statements reduce trauma for victims and if there are other benefits.
