Australia incest case shocks country...

In two run-down caravans and a couple of old tents on a farm in some of Australia's best wool-growing country, a dark secret of intergenerational incest and child abuse that has dominated the lives of 40 members of one family for decades has come to light.

In a community of around 2,000 people three and a half hours' drive south-west of Sydney, genetic testing has shown 11 children in one family have parents who are related to each other, some closely. Questions are now being asked about why it took authorities so long to act on warnings that children were at risk.

Each child had suffered years of sexual abuse, perpetrated by brothers, sisters, cousins, fathers, an uncle and a grandfather over four generations.

The extended family first came to the attention of authorities in June 2010. Over the next two years, seven 'risk of significant harm reports' were issued, mostly relating to neglect, failure to seek necessary medical attention and failure to ensure the children attended school. Full story...
