Subject: juvenile perpetrators in child sexual abuse


Hello,
    I am a doctoral student @ Columbia University School of Nursing.  In 
my clinical practice as a pediatric nurse practitioner on Long Island 
NY, I have seen a significant increase in the number of children under 
15 as the perpetrators of sexual abuse on other children.  This group 
has proved diffficult to access as they are first found in the legal 
system and seem protected there.  Is anyone doing research with this 
young group of children or know of someone else who is and may have 
solved the access issue?  I'd like to take a closer look at this 
population  Thank you.
