    2. The only indicators I saw in these men that were molested was the sadness in their eyes. When stories were shared tears were shed. One physical/behavioral indicator that stood out to me the most was when a picture of Tyler Perry was shown to the audience. This picture was of Tyler when he was younger and he had a difficult time looking at it because it reminded him of the abuse he went through when he was younger.…

    Team Report Summary On Domestic Violence And Sexual Assault

    As for Team C we have discovered that the missions of our two different categories are basically the same. The mission is to help the victim and make others aware that there is help in preventive services when it comes to these issues at hand. The similarities in the mission of the domestic violent category as well as the sexual assault category is almost identical. The mission for sexual assault is to deliver confidential care, support, and advocacy for victims of sexual assault, while concurrently endorsing awareness and prevention programs. Sexual violence is a serious problem that can have lasting, harmful effects on victims and their family, friends, and societies. As for the domestic violent mission it states to provide comprehensive support and advocacy services to victim/survivors, focusing on immediate and long-term safety, empowerment, dignity, and hope. We as a team think that it is pretty clear that the main objective here is to advocate, prevent, and make aware the services offered to victims in these traumatic experiences. The differences between the two issues is the funding for these programs determine if the doors stay open or if the services will continue to be offered to the victims at hand. Domestic violence is sometimes if not all the time not taken seriously because the victims either make up with their abuser or do not press charges as a result of fear of retaliation for the suspect. As for sexual assault programs We believe that funding will always be giving to these programs because of the severity of the issue. We are not saying that domestic violence is not severe but domestic violence has a tendency to titer the fence and hold up court proceedings with uncertainty of what the victim wants to do. However in the domestic violence topic it is not up to the victim to press charges on the suspect…

    Statutory Rape Research Paper

    When walking down the street there is an eight-year-old sitting on the side of the street crying, with dirty, ripped clothing. The young child is nothing but skin and bones from not eating for a week. If there was not a set age for becoming an adult this would be a common scene. The law recognizes an 18-year-old as an adult. If there was not a set age for adulthood, parents could stop caring for their children at young ages. The law requires parents to care for their children up to the age 18. If adulthood was recognized based on maturity, a parent could say their kid was mature at age eight. Yet, the kids aren’t allowed to work until age fourteen. This could leave the kids in starvation, and critical life situations. Therefore, kids become…

    Sexual Assault Case Summary

    When it comes to sexual assault, it is the common belief that the offenders are male and the victims are female, but this is not always the case. In 2014, a study was done looking at the effects of victims, offender and juror gender could impact decisions in child sexual assault cases (Quas, Bottoms, Haegerich & Nysse-Carris). This case study was done by having mock jurors read scenarios of a man or a woman defendant accused of molesting a 15-year-old boy or girl. There were four different versions of the scenario where the 15-year-old student was allegedly assaulted by a 36-year-old teacher, who was also the soccer coach; the only difference in these scenarios was changing of the genders. The mock jurors would then state their verdicts and rated both the defendant…

    Sexual Assault Cases

    The recent Globe and Mail investigation regarding sexual assault cases has caught the attention of many individuals. The article “Why police dismiss 1 in 5 sexual assault claims as baseless,” states that the study involved over 870 police forces in Canada. The article states that 19.39 per cent of the sexual assault complaints that were received over a four-year period of time, were dismissed by police forces as being unfounded (Doolittle, 2017). The article also states that according to research from North America, the United Kingdom and Australia, between 2 per cent and 8 per cent of complaints were considered false reports (Doolittle, 2017). Nonetheless, I agree that for serious complaints like sexual assault, the police should have no…
