“…Back to the criminal justice context, Langos and Sarre (2015) explored the option of family conferences following juvenile cyberbullying. They suggested that RJ can benefit both the survivor and the responsible person (RP) in these cases.…”

“…Despite these potential benefits, RJ also presents concerns in the context of youth-to youth CSO, and should not be implemented universally without specific adjustments. These concerns include the inherent power imbalance in cyberbullying (Langos & Sarre, 2015), which increases the risk of re-victimization, pressure on the survivors to participate (or not), and possible manipulation by RP, which could endanger the survivor's safety.…”

Recent years have seen a significant increase in cyber sexual offenses (CSO) conducted through the creation and distribution of intimate images and videos of others without their knowledge or consent, oftentimes among minors. Restorative justice (RJ) offers a platform to conduct an open, direct, and safe dialogue between responsible persons (RP) and survivors. This explorative study aimed to identify the central characteristics of RJ processes conducted following CSO between youths and to explore their potential benefits and challenges. The study involved in-depth interviews with 10 RJ facilitators and mediators in Israel and Belgium, who led RJ processes following CSO among minors. In addition, content analysis of documents describing these processes was conducted. Four themes emerged: The uniqueness of youth CSO; features of direct encounter; intergenerational aspects; and the need to manage expectations of the process among youth, parents, and facilitators.

“…On the other hand, restorative justice mechanisms vary depending on the type of online crime that was indeed committed. For instance, in cases of cyberbullying and attending to the average age of both the offender and the victim, family group conferencing seems appropriate (Duncan, 2016;Langos & Sarre, 2015), which in turn is not appropriate for online fraud, such as romantic or monetary fraud, a malware or a scareware. Thus, even though restorative justice mechanisms are seen with sympathy by cyber victims, several aspects should be taken into account in this regard.…”

In recent years, individuals study and work from home with some degree of normality. Technology and the Internet have become an essential part of life. This increased reliance on technology and constant engagement with the online world has its negative repercussions. However, it has increased the number of offenders involved in cybercrimes. Considering the aftermath of cybercrimes and the need to address the impact of cybercrimes on victims, this paper reviews the existing mechanisms, such as legislation, international frameworks and conventions. The main purpose of this paper resides in the discussion of the possible use of restorative justice in supporting the needs of the victims. Taking into consideration the cross-border nature of many of these offences, other solutions have to be considered in order to give the victims a chance to be heard and to heal the wounds caused by the crime. This paper argues for the use of victim-offender panels, which are meetings between a group of cyber victims and a group of convicted cyber offenders, allowing victims to express the harm caused by the crime, to be healed and giving room for the offenders to feel remorse, lessening thus the likelihood of recidivism, under the umbrella of reintegrative shaming.

“…Besides these common forms, bullying may ocur in cyberspace through the use of email, texts, cell phones, Internet chatrooms, websites (Deschamps & McNutt, 2016). This new dimension of bullying is called cyberbullying, electronic bullying or online bullying (Langos & Sarre, 2015).…”
