WHEN COPS AND COURTS STEP IN
1. It is impossible to calculate how much of the crime and imprisonment in this country is caused, directly or indirectly, by family violence. About 80 per cent of women in prison have been victims of child abuse, sexual abuse, or domestic violence. When do women take action? The turning point may come when a woman can no longer hide the scars and bruises. Or when her own financial resources improve, when the kids grow up – or when she begins to fear for their safety. Sometimes neighbors hear screaming and call police – or a doctor challenges a woman‟s made up story about how she got those broken ribs.
2. To tell the truth cops hate domestic calls – in part because they are so unpredictable. A neighbor may simply report a disturbance and cops have no idea what they will find on the scene. The parties may have cooled down and be sitting in stony silence. Or one may be holding the other hostage, or the kids. Sometimes warring spouses even turn on cops – which is why many police forces send them in pairs and tell them to maintain eye contact with each other at all times. But many cops still don‟t see such calls as real police work.
3. Women are scared and want the violence to stop. Ten days later when they get the
subpoena to appear in court the situation has changed. The idea of putting someone you live with in jail becomes impossible. Pressing charges is just the first stop. The victim is faced with a range of potential legal remedies: orders of protection, criminal prosecution, family-court prosecution, divorce, a child-custody agreement. Each step is complex and time-consuming, requiring frequent court appearances by the victim and the abuser.
4. But those in the field say the question is whether the justice system can solve a highly complex social problem. We need to rethink what we‟re doing. Prosecution isn‟t a panacea. We put it on when there is an emergency and we keep it on as long as necessary. But the question is, then what?
