Show Notes:
Caroline Culbertson hosts Elysse Stolpe, Judge Rosemarie Aquilina, and Doug Fierberg in unpacking the themes and topics of the survivor experience elicited in “W.T.F. – Wait, That’s Fair?” From the criminal to civil landscapes, the subject matter experts break down how the systems are broken, the potential outcomes for survivors, and how the systems could be more survivor-centered and trauma-informed. The attorneys and judge further supply straightforward education on navigating these systems, dealing with a lack of physical evidence in sexual violence cases, and their approaches to serving survivors with healing and heart at the forefront with specific examples.
