FOI 544/25

REQUEST

I am writing under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 to inquire about data regarding reports of 'cum tributes'*.

Can you please share with me a breakdown of data contained in reported incidents (eg in STORM's database) which contain the phrase 'cum tribute' from 01/01/2025 to 13/04/2025.

Can you do the same for the time periods of 01/01/2024-31/12/2024, 01/01/2023-31/12/2023, 01/01/2022-31/12/2022, 01/01/2021-31/12/2021 and 01/01/2020-31/12/2020.

Please can you also share the gender and the ages of those who reported and those who were arrested and/or charged.

Please share your findings that are completed within the time and spending allocation given.

*By 'cum tribute' I refer to 'the sexual activity that consists of ejaculating on a portrait, and then recording the portrait and the semen together'. Often cum tributes are posted online to forums and groups.
