Abstract

This exploratory study compares the distinctive characteristics of individuals who have consumed child pornography and those who have committed rape. The study sample consists of 212 men of legal age and who have been convicted of a sexual offence. All were monitored in 2022 for therapeutic guidance by the Centre d’Appui Bruxellois. Of these 212 men, 48 were convicted of child pornography consumption and 100 of rape. Socio-demographic, criminological, victimological and psycho-diagnostic data for all the participants were extracted from the judicial court files. This comparison offers crucial perspectives for the development of prevention strategies and therapeutic guidance specific to these sub-groups of sexual offenders.
