THE evidence heard in the ongoing Bullfinch trial of nine men accused of being involved in a gang that allegedly sexually abused and prostituted girls in Oxford has widely reported.
But whatever the outcome of those proceedings, the message of the sexual exploitation conference held in Oxford at the weekend is clear.
Women and children being exploited is not something we as a community can pretend isn’t happening, even here in leafy Oxfordshire. We must all be vigilant to stop this abuse.
