In this paper, the authors explore the prevalence and patterns of recorded domestic violence offending among outlaw motorcycle gang (OMCG) members in New South Wales. They then compare domestic violence offending among a sample of OMCG members and other male offenders who committed their first recorded offence in the same year.

This report provides a focused examination of violence perpetration, in order to enhance national efforts to end domestic, family and sexual violence.

Following substantial domestic and family violence reforms in Australia in recent years, the identification of victim-survivors is increasingly embedded across service system responses. This paper presents a subset of findings from a larger national study of perpetrator focused screening and risk assessment practices.

The aim of this study is to improve understanding of the role of opportunity in the offences against children perpetrated by alleged offenders who have already had contact with the criminal justice system.

Results of this study confirm the high rates of co-occurring adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) in the developmental histories of male youth who encounter the youth justice system in Australia, especially among those who have perpetrated sexual harm.
