We often comment on how often the boyfriend of the mother seems to be the perpetrator, so I pulled out all significant relationships and have posted them below. I used a total of 326 cases.
89 cases - 27.30% - Mother
69 cases - 21.17% - Father
50 cases - 15.34% - Mother's Boyfriend
21 cases - 06.44% - Daycare/Babsitter
15 cases - 04.60% - Grandparent
13 cases - 03.99% - Educator
11 cases - 03.37% - Stranger
10 cases - 03.07% - Family Friend
09 cases - 02.76% - Foster/Adoptive Mother
07 cases - 02.15% - Stepfather
07 cases - 02.15% - Uncle
06 cases - 01.84% - Stepmother
06 cases - 01.84% - Foster/Adoptive Father
04 cases - 01.23% - Aunt
04 cases - 01.23% - Neighbor
03 cases - 00.92% - Counselor
02 cases - 00.61% - Dad's Girlfriend
As my database grows larger, I will revisit this to see if the percentages change a lot. Just thought this might be of interest.
ETA: Sorry for all the extraneous zeros. It's the only way I could keep the chart in line.
