No Control in Justice

Deborah Dobbs takes listeners through two brutal cases she worked as a victim advocate. Both cases involved domestic violence and sexual assault with the same victim and perpetrator but different jurisdictions. The cases shine a spotlight on the lack of control victims (and suspects) have over the key players in the process, from the responding officers and detectives to prosecutors and judges.
