Premium Content Think you re safest in broad daylight? Think again. The time you re most likely to fall victim to a sexual offence, be intimidated, stalked or harassed, or have your house broken into is on a weekday morning or afternoon. Figures from NSW Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research, obtained exclusively by News Corp Australia, reveal that in 2019 the peak time for sex offences was on a Wednesday afternoon, when 451 offences were recorded from midday to 6pm. However, all weekday afternoons saw sex offences rise to similar figures of approximately 400. That s four times as many sex offences as some other time periods.
