Sadly, and unfortunately, there's been a lot of discussion, particularly recently, on this very point and whether we're expending a lot of energy trying to fix a system that is not just broken, which it clearly is, but inherently will fail because of the way that it is structured and because of some of the structural deficits of the system that do not allow the system to be sufficiently agile and sensitive to the needs of victims and survivors.
What happens when the quest for justice feels like an uphill battle? In this episode of 'samsn's STRONGER', listeners are taken into the daunting world of the legal system through the eyes of childhood sexual abuse survivors. The episode sheds light on the harsh realities and emotional struggles faced by those who dare to seek justice.
Featuring voices like Jarad G, Mark C, and experts such as Dr Judy Cashmore and Professor Patrick O’Leary, the discussion dives deep into the structural flaws and biases that often leave survivors feeling let down by the system. You'll hear personal stories that highlight not just the emotional toll but also the potential for retraumatization as survivors navigate this complex path.
Insights from healthcare professionals and criminal justice allies offer a stark look at why current legal frameworks fall short in addressing sexual offences against children. This episode doesn't just expose problems; it calls for much-needed changes in reporting and prosecution to better serve victims. Tune in for a powerful conversation that underscores the importance of advocacy, support from loved ones, and systemic reform.
