When a minor finally speaks and discloses sexual assault and or molestation. The minor is interviewed by CPS, Child Advocacy Group, therapist and is believed; then the District Attorney of the county needs to prosecute the alleged abuser. When the minor is determined to know right from wrong and is articulate in his/her verbage and discloses the abuse(s) and the District Attorney fails to do his/her job as a Public Defender then that same District Attorney should loose his/her license to practice law, fined up to $10 million dollars, and a possible prison term.
Minors must have their voices heard and Justice must be given. Minors are citizens of the United States of America have the right to have their abuser put in court in front of a jury.
In the State of North Carolina, my youngest daughter was molested by her ex-step-father, and the District Attorney, Ernie Lee in Onslow County has refused her Constiutional Right to have a Trial. She was 13 when she spoke up. As her mother and her Guardian Ad Litem, I believe her just like so many others. It is time to face this huge issue and hold the District Attorney’s and their offices accountable for failing so many victims of pedophilia.
Im sorry you had that experience with your child. Your concept is good but it might be a little aggressive and cause a lot of people with experience to leave the profession. Maybe spread the fault to include the judges as well in the event the prosecutor tries but knows the judge will trash those types of cases. Most DA’s know the judges who see their cases and know some judges trash certain types of cases which in turn causes a chain reaction to not make the DA’s purse in fear putting all the effort in for nothing.
Hello. This needs to be aggressive. Far too many children have been denied their rights to have their abuser put in front of a judge/jury. District Attorneys are not doing the job they were elected or hired to do. Is it not aggressive what the children have endured?
In my opinion, the district Attorneys become just as gulity as the criminal when they do not prosecute. I am not saying what the outcome will be, but this is just a means to put the pedophile in court and let the Jury decide.
Example, if a child witnesses a crime then he/she can be asked to testify and that is allowed. Then why cannot a child testify as to what has happened to them? The double-standards are unreal. And if it affects the District Attorneys pockets then sobeit. They must do their jobs and stop picking and choosing cases that will line their pockets.
Hello. How do I contact this person?
I am not doing this for just my child who is now 16, but for the MANY children all access this nation who have been failed by the so called “Justice system “.
