Yvette Cooper, the home secretary, announced a three-month investigation into gang-based child sexual exploitation across Britain, emphasizing a critical need for a thorough audit.
The government's move follows heightened scrutiny from Elon Musk, who raised awareness on social media about the ongoing issues surrounding child sexual exploitation and abuse.
Victims were often let down by police and social services, with some officers using derogatory terms and officials fearing accusations of racism for highlighting ethnic patterns among perpetrators.
Although grooming gangs are a small percentage of child sexual abuse cases, they highlight significant systemic failures in reporting and addressing racial dynamics involved in these crimes.
