Reviewing American legal history \u0026amp; the equivocal treatment of children \u0026amp; sex crimes, Dziech \u0026amp; Schudson explain how current courtroom procedures often fail to acknowledge a child's abilities \u0026amp; needs, \u0026amp; how child witnesses are often re-victimized by the legal system that is supposed to help them. They argue that there is no justification for subjecting abused children to a second round of trauma -- in court. This important book recommends sweeping changes to assure justice for children, their families, \u0026amp; those accused of harming them.","brand":"Beacon Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43352518066431,"sku":"9780807004159","price":18.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9780807004159_s600x595.jpg?v=1782319735","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9780807004159","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
