Closed Prevent child sex offenders from serving parts of their sentence in open prisons

Closed on

Too many child sex offenders are being granted permission to move to open prison.

As a victim of child sexual abuse I recently found out the perpetrator has now been granted a move to open prison after serving only 2 years of his sentence.

This is having a devastating effect on survivors of child sexual abuse who have to live with the impact of the abuse for life. The Government need to remove this option for child sex offenders.
