New sex laws for disabled people
Source: NSW. Attorney General. Media Release.
"Stroke victims and people suffering from Alzheimer’s will be better protected from sexual predators under tough new laws, said NSW Attorney General John Hatzistergos.The new laws will use the term “cognitively impaired” rather than “intellectually disabled,” so many more people who are vulnerable to being manipulated into have sex because of their condition will be protected.“Taking advantage of a cognitively impaired person for sexual gratification is absolutely despicable,” said Mr Hatzistergos."
