SUMMARY:Putting Trials on Trial | In Her Voice
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for an In Her Voice event welcoming Dr. Elaine Craig for an evening of conversation. \nDr. Craig will be discussing her latest book\, Putting Trials on Trial. \nWhen: \nFriday November 2\, 2018 \n6-8 p.m. \nWhere: \nBen McNally Books \n366 Bay Street \n\n \nIn this thorough evaluation of the legal culture and courtroom practices prevalent in sexual assault prosecutions\, Elaine Craig provides an even-handed account of the ways in which the legal profession unnecessarily – and sometimes unlawfully – contributes to the trauma and re-victimization experienced by those who testify as sexual assault complainants. Gathering conclusive evidence from interviews with experienced lawyers across Canada\, reported case law\, lawyer memoirs\, recent trial transcripts\, and defence lawyers’ public statements and commercial advertisements\, Putting Trials on Trial demonstrates that – despite prominent contestations – complainants are regularly subjected to abusive\, humiliating\, and discriminatory treatment when they turn to the law to respond to sexual violations. In pursuit of trial practices that are less harmful to sexual assault complainants as well as survivors of sexual violence more broadly\, Putting Trials on Trial makes serious\, substantiated\, and necessary claims about the ethical and cultural failures of the Canadian legal profession. \n000000
