The data, compiled from information provided by 130 public prosecutor\u2019s offices\u2014both general and juvenile\u2014paint a picture that must be interpreted with care, without succumbing to facile optimism. Nationwide, there is a rate of 13.20 proceedings and 9.07 suspects per 100,000 inhabitants. Compared to the previous year, the number of proceedings decreased by 4.62%, while the number of suspects rose by 8.55%. These two seemingly contradictory figures, however, reveal something specific: fewer reports do not mean fewer crimes. <\/p>\n\n

Ciro Troiano, head of theLAV Zoomafia Observatory<\/a><\/strong>, makes this point very clear: it would be wrong to interpret the drop in reports as an automatic reduction in cases of abuse. The observed decline does not correspond to an actual decrease in crimes, but rather indicates that fewer incidents are being investigated and reported. <\/p>\n\n
