Melbourne Sexual Offences and Child abuse Investigation Team (SOCIT) detectives

Sounds like one team investigates both sexual crimes and child abuse. This looks like it has nothing to do with minors.

That makes more sense...

I read it as two separate teams despite the acronym showing it was a single team.

Thanks!
