  • Honoring the Truth: a Response to the Backlash
    HONORING THE TRUTH: A RESPONSE TO THE BACKLASH by ELLEN BASS and LAURA DAVIS from THE COURAGE TO HEAL: A GUIDE FOR WOMEN SURVIVORS OF CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE THIRD EDITION, 1994 published by HarperCollins “Honoring the Truth” is a response to the current backlash against adult survivors of child sexual abuse. If you’ve watched TV, listened to the radio, or read newspapers or magazines in the past two years, it’s likely that you’ve heard about the “false memory syndrome” and have witnessed attacks on survivors’ memories and credibility. It is these attacks we are responding to here. As in the rest of The Courage to Heal, we have included the experiences of survivors as well as practical self-help information. Unlike the rest of the book, however, we also incorporate here the work of therapists, researchers, and other experts—and more than a hundred footnotes—to place this backlash in a historical and political perspective.1 A number of survivors and professionals have read “Honoring the Truth.” Most appreciated having clear information and an analysis of the issues. One survivor wrote to us, “I felt a lot of the cloudiness of the issue fall away—I felt reassured and validated.” Another said, “I am not as likely to get sucked into the fear and doubt that the backlash is trying to perpetuate.” Yet this same survivor said it had been a lot harder to read than she 1 In writing The Courage to Heal, we listened to survivors of child sexual abuse and presented what we learned in a clear, practical, and respectful way.

  • Recantation and False Allegations of Child Abuse
    Recantation and False Allegations of Child Abuse Prepared by David N. King, Ph.D. Maureen Drost, B.A. Selected Bibliography 2005 Updated 2011 Muriel K.

All rights reserved. 1 ©National Children’s Advocacy Center, 2011 Recantation and False Allegations of Child Abuse Recantation and False Allegations of Child Abuse Selected Bibliography Introduction The issues pertaining to recantation and false allegations of abuse by children are among the more complex to understand psychologically and to interpret accurately. Ac-cording to Lipian, Mills and Brantman (2004), false allegations of abuse may derive from (1) submitting to suggestion by authority figures; (2) the result of "pseudo memories;" or (3) the product of evading honest answers. Recantation may result from the same reasons. Scope This bibliography focuses specifically on literature related to recantation and false allegations of abuse experienced in childhood. The relationship between disclosure, memory, truthfulness, fantastical storytelling, suggestibility, and coaching with recantation and false allegations is complex. To the extent possible, this bibliography does not, except in passing, delve deeply into those topics, preferring instead to provide guidance to publications that specifically address the core topic of false allegations and recanted accusation.

  • Child Sexual Abuse Evidence & Trial Court Procedure Issues
    Child Sexual Abuse Evidence & Trial Court Procedure Issues Judge Robert P. Ringland Revised July 2015 i PREFACE Child sexual abuse cases are one of the most challenging types of cases to deal with as an attorney or judge. This guide is designed to assist the bench and bar in addressing those evidentiary issues common to those cases. While most of the cases herein involve children I have occasionally mentioned cases involving adult victims where the holdings may pertain to child sexual abuse. I have, with rare exceptions, avoided reporting holdings involving prior acts under Evidence Rules 403-404 in as much as these cases are generally fact specific and are decided on a case by case basis. This bench book is hopefully designed to be a starting guide in research and certainly not as a final source. It is not designed to provide legal advice. I wish to acknowledge the following who have helped me compile these cases over the past 26 years: Sasha Blaine, Esq., Aaron Susmarski, Carolyn Besl, Esq., Joshua Vineyard, Esq., Daniel Linneman, Esq., Andrew Thaler, Esq., Laura Johnson, Esq., Kate Bedinghaus, Esq., Becky Carroll Hudson, Esq., Melissa Whalen, Esq., Terrance McQuown, Esq., Sally Moore, Esq. and Diana Thomas, Esq. and Ethan Miller. ii Table of Contents I.
