Tamil Nadu Police have introduced a new monitoring framework called ‘Spectrum’ to classify and track individuals accused of sexual offences based on the level of risk they pose. The system uses categories such as red, orange, and blue to help authorities identify high-risk repeat offenders as well as lower-risk cases. Officials say the initiative will strengthen policing by enabling more focused surveillance, better prevention strategies, and quicker intervention.

A US federal judge on Friday (Dec 5) ordered the release of grand jury transcripts from the investigation into convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein in Florida. This comes after US President Donald Trump signed a bill last month ordering the public release of documents regarding the Epstein case, following which the Justice Department had requested their unsealing. Prior request of the Justice Department to release the transcripts of grand jury proceedings, which are typically kept secret, from Epstein’s Florida case was rebuffed. However, on Friday, US District Judge Rodney Smith ruled that the Epstein Files Transparency Act mandates the release of the documents. Epstein was charged with soliciting a minor for prostitution in Florida and pleaded guilty to the offence in 2008. In 2019, the wealthy financier was arrested on charges of sex trafficking of minors in New York. He died during pre-trial detention, and his death was ruled a suicide. The Justice Department is also seeking the release of files related to the New York case and investigation of Ghislaine Maxwell, who is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence for recruiting underage girls for Epstein. Trump, who once shared a close friendship with Epstein, had attempted to prevent the release of the documents. However, following mounting pressure from Congress, he signed a law on November 19, ordering the release of the materials to the public. Under the Epstein Files Transparency Act, “all unclassified records, documents, communications, and investigative materials” in possession of the Justice Department, the FBI, and US attorneys’ offices related to Epstein and Maxwell are to be released within 30 days. Before signing the law, Trump slammed Democrats for pushing the “hoax” in a lengthy post on his Truth Social platform following allegations that released emails written by the disgraced financier suggested that Trump “knew about the girls” – a claim the Republican denied. “House Republicans should vote to release the Epstein files, because we have nothing to hide, and it’s time to move on from this Democrat Hoax perpetrated by Radical Left Lunatics in order to deflect from the Great Success of the Republican Party, including our recent Victory on the Democrat ‘Shutdown,’” Trump wrote. The 79-year-old president added that the Department of Justice has already started going through tens of thousands of pages and is looking at “various Democrat operatives”, including Bill Clinton, Reid Hoffman, and Larry Summers, and their relationship with Epstein.

<p>Roblox, one of the most popular video games among teens, said it is to enact changes to its child safety features and parental controls for children under the age of 13 to access certain features. This comes after growing concern about child safety among parents.</p>

<p>In a first, England has&nbsp;convicted a man of a cyberflashing offence and has been sentenced&nbsp;for 66 weeks.</p>

<p>On January 31, cyberflashing was made illegal in England and Wales. As a result, Nicholas Hawkes was found guilty under the Online Safety Act.<br />
<br />
When the 39-year-old from Basildon, Essex, sent unsolicited pictures of his genitalia to a woman and a teen, on February 9, he was already convicted of sex offences, according to the Crown Prosecution Service.</p>

<p>Hawkes requested to call probation using his father's phone, Southend crown court heard on Tuesday (Mar 19). He sent the lewd photo to a woman in her 60s on WhatsApp after going into another room. The girl&nbsp;was reported to have been left overwhelmed and crying&nbsp;after he sent an obscene image to her via iMessage a few minutes later.</p>

<p>Snapshots of the texts were taken by both victims, and the woman reported him to Essex police that same day.<br />
<br />
The prosecution's David Barr stated that the charges "fall as part of an established pattern of behaviour of the defendant."<br />
<br />
It is said that Hawkes has not received any treatment in spite of his prior offence. Despite being offered 12 consultations with a psychiatrist, the court heard that he never got any of them because the waiting list was too long.<br />
<br />
In a previous Southend magistrates' court appearance, Hawkes acknowledged to two counts of sending a picture or video of his genitalia in order to frighten, distress, or embarrass someone.</p>

Epstein case files: Here's what papers reveal about Clinton, Prince Andrew, Hawking and others

<p>Japan is set to delay a proposed bill aimed at establishing a system that would prevent individuals with a history of sex crime from being employed in professions involving dealing with children.</p>

<p>Japan Times reported that the bill is not expected to be tabled in an extraordinary parliamentary session next month and instead will be delayed until next year.</p>

<p>Japan’s minister in charge of child policies, Ayuko Kato, is expected to announce the delay in the coming days. The decision has been taken in the wake of rising criticism from the ruling Liberal Democratic Party leaders over the contents of the bill.</p>

<h2><strong>LDP leaders criticise bill</strong></h2>

<p>Leaders in the ruling party want to expand the scope of the bill before it is tabled.&nbsp;</p>

<p>According to an LDP panel, formed specially to draft the bill, the bill won’t help establish an effective system if ‘only day nurseries and schools are required to use the system but not cram schools and after-school childcare centres as proposed.’</p>

<p>LDP members also propose that a time limit should be set for how far back records of sex crimes can be available for the system.</p>

<h2><strong>When will the bill be presented now?</strong></h2>

<p>As per reports, the bill will now be presented in an ordinary Diet session next year. Till then, efforts will be made to enrich the draft with provisions that the LDP panel has been demanding.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The proposed bill, often referred to as the "Japanese DBS," resembles the Disclosure and Barring Service certificate used by the British government. Prime Minister Fumio Kishida has presented this legislation as a significant policy initiative stemming from the establishment of the Children and Families Agency in April last year.</p>

<h2><strong>Challenges</strong></h2>

<p>In Japan, the oversight of licensing for teachers and childcare workers falls under different government offices, creating challenges in preventing individuals with a history of sex crimes from switching between professions involving children.</p>

<p>Advocacy from parent and child support groups has been instrumental in pushing for the implementation of this system. The government has been deliberating its response to the issue since 2020 when two men, both registered with a babysitter matching app, were separately arrested for sexually assaulting children under their care.</p>

Japan Times reported that the bill is not expected to be tabled in an extraordinary parliamentary session next month and instead will be delayed until next year. Japan’s minister in charge of child policies, Ayuko Kato, is expected to announce the delay in the coming days. The decision has been taken in the wake of rising criticism from the ruling Liberal Democratic Party leaders over the contents of the bill. LDP leaders criticise bill Leaders in the ruling party want to expand the scope of the bill before it is tabled. According to an LDP panel, formed specially to draft the bill, the bill won’t help establish an effective system if ‘only day nurseries and schools are required to use the system but not cram schools and after-school childcare centres as proposed.’ LDP members also propose that a time limit should be set for how far back records of sex crimes can be available for the system. When will the bill be presented now? As per reports, the bill will now be presented in an ordinary Diet session next year. Till then, efforts will be made to enrich the draft with provisions that the LDP panel has been demanding.

The government has been deliberating its response to the issue since 2020 when two men, both registered with a babysitter matching app, were separately arrested for sexually assaulting children under their care.
