You won't find out. This is England and the English simply do not riot.

The Jay Report got detailed, high quality data about 115,489 cases of child sexual abuse in England and Wales, of which 4,228 were “group-based”, (but I can't find what period that was over) so that's an upper limit.

To (mis)quote Stalin: ‘One rape is a tragedy; one thousand is a statistic.’

What really riles the public is an instigator of the riots just got seven plus years whilst one of the leaders of the rape gangs got just six years and was out on just over two and is still living in Rotherham, not deported.

Subjudice law hasn't exited for many decades and prosecution hurdles for contempt were raised high expressly to allow public discussion and reporting of live trials.

You may be thinking of a specific occasion when there were 2 symultanious trials covering the same subject becayse there were too many defendants to make it one trial.

To prevent cross contamination making any convictions unsafe the judges ordered reporting restrictions but they were only for a very limited time and once the verdicts were in anything and everything about the trials could immediately be reported.

I think we're in the order of 50,000 abused girls. Large error bars on that but of that order

There are, we are told, at least 50 UK towns where these rape-gangs have been operating. They have been operating for decades *and are still operating it seems*.

In the various enquiries that I've seen reports of the numbers of girls involved in each is over 1000

50 towns x 1000 girls/town gets you 50,000 victims
