Description:
Poster provides a review of investigative procedures and court documents from a juried trial that acquitted an uncle charged with “sexual sodomy against a minor”. Participants identify evidence missed by professionals from three agencies who failed to recognize an unstable family exposed to intergenerational domestic violence. The author, a primary defense witness, linked family attributes to epidemiological, legal, and psycho-social literature. Links encourage participants to search for truths beyond accusations and criminality assumptions, to provide needed counseling for maladjusted families.
