Released: 23 January 2014
Release: Crime Statistics, period ending September 2013
"The number of sexual offences recorded by the police increased by 17%. This increase is likely to be partly due to a continuation of a ‘Yewtree effect’, whereby a greater number of victims [sic] have come forward to report historical sexual offences to the police."
