Do we need to reform how we carry out rape trials?
Published 1 month, 2 weeks ago
Description
The British Government have announced that they’re introducing new specialist courts for rape cases to try “rebalance the scales of justice and put victims first.” The new plans will see court staff get special training, victims having a direct point-of-contact with the court, and a fixed trial date rather than it being placed on a rolling list.
Rachel Morrogh, the CEO of the Dublin Rape Crisis Centre joined us on the show.
