Financial advisor, Ryan Hemphill, 43, was indicted on 116 counts on Thursday, including rape, predatory sexual assault, facilitating a sex offense with a controlled substance and bribing witnesses, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg announced in a news release.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The exhibition has been largely funded by the Atifete Foundation, created and owned by the first female president of Kosovo. She says survivors of sexual violence from the conflict continue to face stigma, twenty-five years after the end of the war.

In Idaho, women who become pregnant following a sexual assault are legally allowed to get an abortion under the law's few exceptions. But victims navigating the requirements to receive care may find barriers in local agencies unevenly understanding – and complying with – the law.

Civil society groups have warned the risk of sexual violence in Sudan is so severe that some women are taking their own lives. Campaigners have told the BBC of several cases of women taking their lives, either after enduring sexual violence or to avoid it. On Tuesday, a major UN report highlighted 'staggering' levels of sexual violence in Sudan, attributing the worst atrocities to the paramilitary RSF group.

In today's episode, I spoke with Randy Thornhill, about the biological basis of beauty, how diseases influence political views and values, and the evolutionary history of rape and sexual coercion. We spoke about how hormonal health influences sexual attraction, how developmental health influences our facial symmetry, and how improving our health can have a direct effect on our beauty and attractiveness. We also discussed Randy's groundbreaking theory called the Parasite-Stress Theory - which has shown that authoritarian and liberal views are often driven by the extent to which we're exposed to infectious diseases. The more infectious diseases there are in an area, the more suspicious of outsiders we become, and vice versa. These mechanisms are part of our 'behavioral immune system'. This theory has really important implications for understanding how we construct our values and how certain factors of our environment, that we're mostly unaware of, can completely shape our perception. We then went on to speak about another one of Randy's important books - 'The Natural History of Rape'. This is obviously a difficult subject to cover, and we did our best to do it justice, and to lay out Randy's findings on the evolutionary roots of sexual coercion and why it exists. Not a pretty truth, for sure, but it is an important truth nonetheless, and I hope you find it useful. I am very interested in hearing your thoughts on the ideas raised here. Do they make sense? Do you agree? Let me know your thoughts in the comments. Randy Thornhill is a professor of evolutionary biology at the University of New Mexico. His parasite-stress theory, or pathogen-stress theory, is a theory of human evolution proposing that parasites and diseases encountered by a species shape the development of the values and qualities of that species. This theory has revolutionized evolutionary psychology and has been highly replicated since its conception.00:00 Evolutionary & Biological Basis of Beauty 2:10 Hormonal Health & The Effects of Estrogen & Testosterone 10:25 Developmental Health & Bilateral Symmetry 19:10 We Can Look More Beautiful by Being Healthier 25:17 Parasite-Stress Theory: How Diseases Influence Political Views 28:35 Xenophobia is a Behavioral Immune System Response 52:11 "The Natural History of Rape" 58:55 Age of Rape Victims 1:02:28 Is Rape About Power? 1:09:53 Rape is a Low-Cost Strategy This is a public episode.

July 11 2023 - TCHT_ Protecting Rape Victims

Walking with the Saints Podcast | Feast of St. Maria Goretti, Patron Saint of Young Girls and all Rape Victims | July 6 Today, we are bringing you the exciting story of a child saint. Can a child become a saint? oh, yes, children can also possess great love for God, like St. Maria Goretti, who at eleven years old died a martyr of purity. Maria Goretti was born of a very poor family on October 16, 1890, in Corinaldo, Italy. Her father died when she was nine, so her mother and siblings had to share a home with another poor family. The good Catholic mother taught her children how to love God above all things and to hate sin. The rule that Maria learned by heart was: “Rather death than sin." Maria was a beautiful girl. She had chestnut hair and an innocent smile, which reflected the beauty of her soul. Her mother and two siblings would go to the farm every day, while she remained at home to care for her youngest sister, cook the food and keep the small house in order. Now, the family with whom they lived had a 19-year old son, named Alessandro, who admired and liked Maria very much. In order to satisfy his desire, he tried to make unchaste advances on her, but she always refused and rebuffed him. One day, while Maria was alone with her little sister, Alessandro came with a dagger. He demanded Maria to give in to his lustful aspiration. But Maria courageously refused and cried out: "No, it's a sin. God does not want it." The alternative for her refusal was death. The dagger soon pierced her body several times and she was taken to the hospital but died the next day. Before dying she prayed for Alessandro and forgave him."... I want him with God in heaven." After her death, many people prayed to her and miracles have been wrought through her prayers. The greatest miracle, however, was the conversion of her murderer, who became the principal witness for her beatification. Since he was a minor when he committed the crime, his sentence was reduced to 30 years. He entered the Order of Friars Minor and served as receptionist and gardener. Maria was 11 years old when she died on July 5, 1902. When she was beatified on April 27, 1947, her mother and siblings were present. On June 25, 1950 Pope Pius XII canonized Maria in the presence of her aged mother, her siblings and Alessandro. St. Maria Goretti is a protector of chastity, patron saint of young girls and rape victims.  Virtue : Love of Jesus, purity of soul and body, serene acceptance of poverty and harsh life. Prayer: Oh, St. Maria Goretti lover of purity, please help today's teenagers to preserve their virginity amidst the indecency in our world.  

Can you imagine experiencing a devastating trauma, having to tell all of the hurtful details to strangers, only to face judgment, criticism and even blame? Too often, that's what rape victims go through. It's not just the criminal court system. What if when you tried to have criminal charges brought, your attacker sued you in civil court? We are going to investigate a shocking true crime story to see what spiritual and safety takeaways we can find. Both our case and our guest today overcame systems that seemed stacked against them. These stories will show us ways each of us can be a different kind of PI - a person of impact. It's so much easier to do that than you might think. Our book this week is Know My Name by Chanel Miller and our guest is Witlee Ethan. Let's dive into this disturbing yet hopeful case. I won't get too graphic but we will be discussing sexual assault and rape, so please use your discretion when listening to our sharing this episode. Highlights from this episode include: Men that the world sees as good people can still commit evil acts Women who have less than perfect lives can still be victims Victims of sexual assault desperately want to feel clean and a non-profit called Her Well addresses this problem with compassion, love, and practical support Dive a little deeper into Deuteronomy 16:18-20 In Deuteronomy, Moses emphasizes the importance of making a daily choice between pursuing our own wants or obeying God's commands. Individual responsibility is critical, but we all are also part of a larger community. We have to look out for ourselves but we cannot neglect looking out for others as well. Let's dive a little deeper into Deuteronomy 16:18-20 from the Contemporary English Version: Moses is speaking to Israel, and he says: “After you are settled in the towns that you will receive from the Lord your God, the people in each town must appoint judges and other officers. Those of you that become judges must be completely fair when you make legal decisions, even if someone important is involved. Don't take bribes to give unfair decisions. Bribes keep people who are wise from seeing the truth and turn honest people into liars. People of Israel, if you want to enjoy a long and successful life, make sure that everyone is treated with justice in the land the Lord is giving you.” It's easy to look at these verses and put the responsibility for justice completely on judges. But notice that it's the people who are appointing these judges! We have to be sure that when we support candidates in any position that we look for people of character - people who will be fair and not give in to corruption. I'm not saying that in either Chanel or Witlee's case there were any illegal dealings, but there were certainly questionable decisions made. If you get a copy of “Know My Name”, you see how even though Brock Turner was convicted, his sentence was so light that an outraged community had him recalled as a judge. And Witlee is advocating to be sure that cases like hers are dealt with fairly as well. As a community, we have to look out for each other and hold our leaders accountable for their failures.

It's Casual Friday! Sam hosts Heather Digby Parton, contributing writer at Salon.com and proprietor of the blog Hullabaloo, to round up the week in news. Then, he is joined by Matthew Film Guy! First, Sam runs through updates on the debt ceiling debate, CNN's response to backlash from their Trump Town Hall, the “end” of the COVID emergency and Title 42, Joe Manchin taking on the EPA, various mainstream court cases, and Elon's new CEO, before diving into the floundering “reports” of the intense corruption of the Biden Crime Family. Digby then joins as she and Sam dive into Anderson Cooper's insanely “holier than thou” response to critiques of CNN, as well as the looming conservative shadow of John Malone over the company, before quickly running through ongoing debates about the Debt Ceiling. Wrapping up, they touch on the “end” of COVID, per the Biden Administration, and how well over 1 million deaths later, the US has learned absolutely nothing. Film Guy “Matthew Film Guy” Matthew joins as he and Sam run through the impact of the WGA strike on the movie and TV industries, reflect on Sam's appearance on Movie Night Extravaganza, and Matthew's film suggestion of the Romanian New Wave film “Four Months, Three Weeks, and Two Days.” And in the Fun Half: Sam tackles the right wing's vitriolic coverage of the killing of Jordan Neely, with Jesse Watters and Greg Gutfeld uplifting the “heroic” murder of a guy whose crime was being hungry and upset, also touching on Elon's new CEO appointment as Twitter overlooks a financial cliff, and Ben Shapiro's “Pope of the Jews” schtick expanding to proclaim himself “Pope of the Rape Victims.” Wrapping up, they discuss Biden's fascist immigration policy in the wake of Title 42 being rolled back, and Tommy Tuberville's defense of White Nationalists in the military.

Both sisters had tears in their eyes. Rep. Kera Birkeland, R-Morgan, sat in her office at the Utah Capitol in Salt Lake City. On the other side of the Salt Lake Valley, her younger sister by 10 years, Samantha Hansen, sat in the kitchen of her Herriman home. Some 40 miles separated the two while they spoke individually to the Deseret News on Thursday — but their vast differences over an issue that hits far too close to home for their family is immeasurable.

It's Tuesday, December 20th, A.D. 2022. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson Nigerian Muslims forced 10,000 rape victims to get abortions A Reuters investigation found that the Nigerian military is adding insult to injury for women kidnapped and abused by radical Islamist insurgents. The military somehow recovers the women and forces them to submit to abortions if they are pregnant. Reuters concluded that “Since 2013, the Nigerian Army has run a secret, systematic and illegal abortion program in the country's northeast, terminating at least 10,000 pregnancies among women and girls, many of whom had been kidnapped and raped by Islamist militants, according to dozens of witness accounts and documentation.” In addition, Open Doors calculates that 4,650 Christians have been killed, and 3,500 were kidnapped last year.  Violence against U.S. churches Hostility against U.S. churches is on the rise, almost three times the incidents of violence in 2022 as compared to 2018. The Family Research Council report found a total of 420 documented acts of hostility targeting 397 individual churches. There were 12 gun-related incidents, and 11 bomb threats.  Most were incidents of vandalism. This amounts to 1 in 20,000 churches per year reporting a gun-related incident. This compares to 110 to 130 shootings on school campuses per year, which is a rate of about 1 in 1,000.  Canadian COVID administrator dead at 35 Here's another high profile sudden death -- in Canada this time.   Adam Exton was the Director of Parliamentary Affairs at Health Canada during the COVID-19 crisis, and led the roll out of the COVID shot for Canada.  He is dead at 35 years of age.   Argentina beats France for World's Cup Soccer Argentina is the soccer world champion, beating out France in extra time in Sunday's game. That's Argentina's first World Cup victory since 1986. An estimated two million people rushed out into the streets of central Buenos Aires Sunday night to celebrate the win. One fan told NDTV, “Let's be clear. Argentina is in trouble, economically, socially; it's bad. So, this distraction is richly deserved.”  Argentina is falling apart economically and socially Indeed, Argentina's inflation rate is about 93% year over year.  The value of the Argentina peso has dropped 94% against the dollar, over the last five years. Shockingly, 80% of their children are born out of wedlock — about the highest rate of all nations in the world, with the exception of Columbia. Argentina was the first nation in Latin America to legalize same sex faux-marriage in 2010.  Argentina is 66% Catholic, 22% secular atheist, 9% Pentecostal, and 2% other Christian.  Psalm 10:16 reminds us that “The LORD is king forever and ever; and the nations perish from His land.” Peru's president impeached Peru's newly elected president, Pedro Castillo, was leading the pink wave towards more redistribution of the wealth and a rewrite of the nation's constitution.   But, this has been stopped short by an impeachment vote from Peru's Congress. Castillo will be replaced by Vice President Dina Boluarte, who ran under the Marxist banner of the Free Peru Party in 2021  Court forces girls to run against boys Last Friday, a three-judge panel of the Second U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals dismissed a challenge to Connecticut's policy of allowing transgender students to compete in girls' high school sports. The court rejected arguments by four biological female runners who said they were unfairly forced to race against biologically male athletes, reports CBN. In arguments before a federal judge in Connecticut in February 2021, Roger Brooks, a lawyer for the Alliance Defending Freedom, said Title IX guarantees girls "equal quality" of competition, which he said is denied by having to race boys who have inherent physiological advantages. Brooks said the male transgender sprinters improperly won 15 championship races between 2017 and 2020 and cost girls the opportunity to advance to other races 85 times. The Second U.S. Circuit Court is populated with seven Democrats and six Republicans. Alliance Defending Freedom decried the ruled. Christiana Kiefer of ADF said, “Right now, 18 states have enacted laws that protect women and girls from having to compete against males, and polls show that a majority of Americans agree that the competition is no longer fair when males are permitted to compete in women's sports.”   ADF is considering an appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.  NASDAQ down Stocks are down for the week. The NASDAQ Composite Index is down 1,000 points, settling around 10,500 Monday. That's the lowest mark on the index since November 8th. Jan. 6 panel recommends 4 criminal charges for Trump over Capitol riot Former President Donald Trump should face criminal charges for his actions in connection with last year's January 6, 2021 events, according to the Democrat Party-dominated House Select Committee, reports The New York Post. The charges recommended include: obstruction of an official proceeding, conspiracy to defraud the United States, conspiracy to make a false statement, and insurrection. The report concluded that “None of the events of January 6th would have happened without [Donald Trump].” Churches cancelling Christmas Day services And finally, only five days left until Christmas. More churches are cancelling worship this Sunday for the holiday— according to Lifeway Research.  Only 84% of churches are committed to holding worship services. That's down from 89% in 2016.    Denominationally, 95% of Lutherans, 91% of Methodists, 84% of Presbyterian/Reformed, 64% of non-denominational churches, 60% of Baptists, and 45% of Pentecostals are holding Christmas Eve services. Hebrews 10:25 warns us not to “forsake the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.”  Close And that's The Worldview in 5 Minutes on this Tuesday, December 20th, in the year of our Lord 2022. Subscribe by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.

For a rape survivor, the trauma is repeated time and time and time again. First, there is the assault itself. Then comes the trauma of reporting the assault to apathetic policemen. Then a long drawn out judicial battle. And amid all this, the victim also battles societal taboos and mindsets that blame the victim for the crime. No wonder it's so difficult for rape victims to get justice in India. Please listen to the latest episode of All Indians Matter.

 टू फिंगर टेस्ट आखिर क्या होता है ? क्यों इसके खिलाफ आवाज़ उठी ? इसे ना करने की गाइडलाइन्स के बावजूद भी डॉक्टर्स इसे क्यों कर रहे थे ? टू फिंगर टेस्ट नहीं तो आखिर कैसे पता किया जायेगा की रेप हुआ या नहीं ? ऐसे तमाम सवालों के जवाब देने आज FYI में  मेरे साथ जुड़ेंगी सुप्रीम कोर्ट की अधिवक्ता तालिश रे। बात हम भी करेंगे, समझेंगे और इसीलिए लेकर आयी हूँ FYI सिर्फ ABP LIVE PODCAST पर। मैं मानसी हूँ आपके साथ।31 अक्टूबर को एकऔर प्रथा ख़त्म हुई। Rape victims ke होने वाले टू फिंगर टेस्ट को लेकर सुप्रीम कोर्ट ने इस पर रोक लगा दी है। कोर्ट ने कहा कि कोई भी व्यक्ति ऐसा करता पाया गया तो उसके खिलाफ कानूनी कार्रवाई की जाएगी। जस्टिस चंद्रचूड़ के नेतृत्व वाली एक पीठ ने ‘टू-फिंगर टेस्ट' के इस्तेमाल पर कहा कि इस टेस्ट का कोई वैज्ञानिक आधार नहीं है। इस तरह का टेस्ट रेप विक्टिम को दोबारा यातना देने जैसा है। यह टेस्ट एक गलत धारणा पर आधारित है कि एक सेक्शुअली एक्टिव महिला का बलात्कार नहीं किया जा सकता है। आखिर ये पूरा मुद्दा क्या है ? इसे  जानने से पहले हमें पहले ये जानना होगा की आखिर रेप क्या है। yes  ! हम आज भी नहीं जानते what  इस रेप। ये कहना गलत नहीं की टू फिंगर टेस्ट किसी महिला के साथ रेप के बाद मेडिकल टेस्ट के नाम पर दूसरी बार किया जाने वाला रेप है। यह टेस्ट बलात्कार से भी ज्यादा दर्दनाक है, जिसमे शारीरिक उत्पीड़न के साथ साथ मानसिक उत्पीड़न भी होता है। कोर्ट  ने स्वास्थ्य मंत्रालय को निर्देश दिया है कि यह सुनिश्चित किया जाए कि किसी भी स्थिति में यौन उत्पीड़न या रेप सर्वाइवर का टू फिंगर टेस्ट नहीं होना चाहिए। कोर्ट ने केंद्र और राज्य के स्वास्थ्य सचिवों को सरकारी और प्राइवेट मेडिकल कॉलेजों के सिलेबस से टू-फिंगर टेस्ट की पढ़ाई हटाने का निर्देश भी दिया है। भारतीय संविधान किसी को हक़ नहीं देता की इस टू फिंगर टेस्ट के ज़रिये कोई भी किसी लड़की या महिला की निजता, सम्मान और मानसिक स्वास्थ्य से जुड़े अधिकारों का उल्लंघन करे। 

This week I spiraled out with the ridiculously funny, insightful AND delightful comedian Dylan Adler! We talked being baby queers, the horrors of your Mom witnessing your super vulnerable ( and sometimes Freudian) jokes, and turning trauma and shame into comedy. Plus, Dylan shares a story of having a (in my biased and outraged opinion, as a licensed psychotherapist) HORRIFYINGLY BAD therapist who sent him down a shame spiral which is pretty much the exact opposite of what that therapist needed to be doing, okay!?  CW: this episode includes discussion of having experienced sexual assault, and the aftermath & recovery,  but no specifics or details of the SA are shared.

The Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) on Tuesday called for the immediate resignation of Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana, saying his continued stay in office spits in the face of the victims of rape. Godongwana is accused of sexually assaulting a masseuse at a Kruger National Park hotel, while on vacation earlier this month. He has since denied the allegations, claiming they were a smear campaign "fashioned to achieve narrow and selfish political ends". The EFF labelled Godongwana “a pervert”. “The continued stay of Enoch Godongwana in office, is a spit in the face of the 9 516 victims of rape, who opened cases at police stations between April and June 2022. It is also a reflection that we are led by a government which has no regard for women,” said EFF president Julius Malema. Malema went on to say, “It is a government of a Finance Minister who abuses women in their places of profession. It is a government of a President who tortures a female domestic worker, because of his uncontrollable greed.” He said if Godongwana had any respect for the Office he holds, and women in South Africa, he would have resigned long ago. Malema accused the Finance Minister of drawing “inspiration from his criminal President”, who Malema says has not shown accountability. Last week President Cyril Ramaphosa said he would not act impulsively over the sexual assault allegations levelled against Godongwana. The EFF said Godongwana has failed to manage the South African economy. “One other thing about Enoch he is in and out of hospital, he is a very sickly Minister who is not available. I don't understand why he insists on wanting to be a Minister of Finance despite the fact that he knows that his [poor] health [is not good] for such a serious ministry that is highly involved, which requires young and energetic visionary Ministers who are in good health. Enoch does not meet any requirement with this latest allegation to be a Minister of Finance,” said Malema. CRIME Meanwhile, the EFF said it was disturbed by the high levels of crime afflicting the country, particularly mass shootings and tavern deaths, as well as disturbing levels of murder and the gang rape of eight women in Krugersdorp. “The gang rapes in Krugersdorp are a sign of a country of men who have lost their sense of morality. There is no level of poverty, unemployment, or state of living that can inspire one to rape. There is a war against the women of this country, and it can no longer be ignored,” Malema said. He added that the latest quarterly crime statistics, which revealed that there had been 6 424 murders between April and June 2022, confirmed to the EFF that the country is a nation that is engaging in a war. Malema claimed that the deaths reported in the quarterly crime stats are higher than the number of deaths in the war between Russia and Ukraine and showed that citizens are being killed at an intolerable rate in communities. PHALA PHALA Meanwhile, the EFF reaffirmed its stance on the need to hold Ramaphosa accountable for the alleged crimes committed on the President's Phala Phala farm. Malema said it was undeniable that the popular media, political analysts and journalists, had dedicated themselves to efforts to downplay and defend Ramaphosa. “As the third largest political party represented in the Parliament of South Africa, the EFF will also explore and participate in legislative and judicial measures to hold Ramaphosa accountable,” he said. The party called on all “principled” members of the opposition, and civil society, to join in ensuring that “Ramaphosa does not get away with the crimes he has committed”.

A tragic story makes headlines: A ten-year-old Ohio girl is allegedly raped, and becomes pregnant.  Is the story true? And if so, how do pro-lifers respond? What remains true, regardless of whether this story is true or not, is that abortion is not a solution to rape, and in fact compounds the trauma and injustice of her attack. We discuss what a pregnant child ACTUALLY needs from the doctors and community supporting her.

Adrian Goldberg investigates how rape victims and survivors are being failed on both sides of the Anglo/Scottish border.In England and Wales, an official report has found that rape victims are continually and systematically being failed by the criminal justice system with long delays between reporting a case and a prosecution. Adrian discusses this with Byline Times Chief Social and European Affairs Reporter Sian Norris with Hera Hussein, founder of Chayn, which supports survivors of gender based violence around the world.Meanwhile in Scotland, there are calls to change a legal provision which campaigners say requires a ridiculously high threshold of evidence, allowing 90% of alleged rapists to walk away without being prosecuted. Adrian hears from Emma Bryson of Speak Out Survivors.Produced by Adrian Goldberg and Harvey White.Funded by subscriptions to Byline Times. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Carole Malone argues women making rape accusations SHOULD be made to allow police access to their phones. Also:Should Trump address parliament?Was the Huawei leak in the public interest? Are the working class taken seriously?

Campaigners says rape victims are being made to choose between privacy or justice - as police ask them to hand over their mobile phones. Forces across England and Wales want accusers to allow officers to access data including messages, photos, emails, and social media content. If they don't, cases could be dropped. Big Brother Watch is calling it a "digital strip search" that will prolong the distress for those who've been attacked.
