Character references have long been a contentious issue in Ireland, but President Michael D Higgins has signed the Criminal Law (Sexual Offences and Human Trafficking) Bill 2023, which is set to change the way character references are treated. The bill means that people who give character references for sexual offenders can now be cross-examined in court.To discuss, Andrea Gilligan is joined by Ciara Mangan, sexual assault survivor and Advocate, Natasha O'Brien assault victim and advocate and Mary Crilly, Founder of the Sexual Violence Centre Cork and Safe Gigs.

Jon Uhler has spent more time working with prisoners in solitary confinement than any other therapist in the country. He has invaluable insight into why sexual offenders commit the crimes they do - and how deeply those crimes affect their victims. Jon is also the host of the podcast, Journey to Healing, and has treated both sex offenders and those who have been victimized by predators. He is additionally an expert on the chilling topics of Satanic Ritual Abuse (SRA) and the often ensuing dissociative identity disorder (DID), which has sometimes been called multiple personality disorder. Jon explains the decline that occurs in the mind of a predator who chooses to traumatize their victims, how those victims often suffer from DID as a result, and how they can find healing.

A podcast hosted by an Orthodox comedian recently featured a controversial interview with a child sex offender.  In response, Rabbi Scott Kahn and Talli Rosenbaum created a panel to discuss whether there are potential benefits to learning more about people who struggle with attraction to minors and do not offend, as well as those who do.

Clinical and forensic psychologist Dr. Darrel Turner spent 12 years developing a tool with the primary function to evaluate the truthfulness of denial in interviews with alleged sexual offenders. The result of his research is APOD, a scientifically sound instrument that aids investigators and clinicians in the Analysis of Patterns of Denial. Dr. Turner joins the conversation to discuss this new approach, how it works, and the key terms and patterns investigators can look for when determining the likelihood of a suspect's involvement in crimes of a sexual nature.

In this short update Laura shares the good news and explains why it is so important that dangerous domestic abusers will be included on the violent and sexual offender register as well as further detail about the law reform.   Announcing the reform on Monday 20 February, Home Secretary Suella Braverman said ‘domestic violence is completely unacceptable and cases torment, pain fear and anxiety.'   Finally, after 22 years of recommending and campaigning for this – it's going to happen!

Those who have commited sexual offences may be vilified, abused or physically beaten. Often they are regarded as untreatable as well. Anna Kotova and Geraldine Akerman take a different approach. Following their research with residents and staff they argue that a therapeutic community can provide a safe and effective environment. In this podcast they explain their findings. See free access to their paper via the link below. Navigating moral dimensions and lateral power – The experiences of men with sexual convictions and histories of sexual abuse serving sentences in a therapeutic community https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/26326663221074263 Anna Kotova in a Lecturer in Criminology at Birmingham University. Her teaching and research interests are in prison sociology and the collateral impact of imprisonment on families of prisoners. She has researched the impact of long sentences on partners of prisoners in the UK, the experiences of prisoners serving sentences for sex offences in a therapeutic community and the use of video-call technology in prisons. She teaches Criminological Theory I and Punishment in a Global Context.   Geraldine Akerman is a Forensic Psychologist who has worked HMP Grendon for many years and now works for the NHS.

Welcome to the podcast. 

Today's episode of Audacious is not appropriate for children or for those who are particularly sensitive to the topic of sexual assault. Right now, 1 in 4 girls and 1 in 13 boys are sexually abused before the age of 18. And more than 90% of those victims know their perpetrator in some way. You've maybe heard the saying, “Hurt people hurt people”. But what makes a person want to hurt - to sexually abuse - a child? Hear from a man who did just that and spent 7 years in prison. Today, he's the author of The Parent's Guide to Protecting Children from Pedophiles. The President of the Connecticut Association for the Treatment of Sexual Offenders talks about about effective treatment, and the flaws she sees in the sex offender registry. Also, how to protect your children. Photo: EyeEm/Getty Images Creative Support the show: https://www.wnpr.org/donate See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I thought this would be an important topic to cover this month. Actually I’m considering making this podcast a serious information hub on sexual offenders here in California. Let me know your thoughts.

Dr. Nancy Irwin is a licensed clinical psychologist and highly sought-after addictions therapist and trauma expert. Originally from Atlanta where she trained as an opera singer, she moved to NYC to become a stand-up comedian, and then to Los Angeles in 1994 when she heard Hollywood needed more blondes. Dr. Irwin experienced an epiphany when she began volunteering for Children of the Night, a shelter for sexually abused children in Los Angeles. This experience awoke the healer in Dr. Irwin, prompting her to pursue a doctorate in psychology at California Southern University with a specialty focus on the prevention and healing of sexual abuse. Dr. Irwin is also a certified therapeutic hypnotist. Dr. Irwin is also the author of YOU-TURN: Changing Direction in Midlife (2008), a collection of “over 40 stories of people over 40” who made amazing transitions in midlife and has been featured in a wide variety of media outlets including national TV appearances on Anderson Cooper, Megyn Kelly, The Doctors, Nightline, and more. She is a member of the American Hypnosis Association, the California Coalition of Sexual Offenders, the Los Angeles County Psychological Association, and she is a Diplomate in the American Academy of experts in Traumatic Stress. Dr. Irwin has a private practice in West Los Angeles, and is also a clinical psychologist on staff at Seasons Recovery Center in Malibu.

Deacon Tim McNeil , chancellor of the Omaha Archdiocese says the list of 38 names and church assignments of those members of the clergy who had a substantiated case of sexual misconduct against them was released Friday. Though not required to release the names, McNeil says it was in an effort for transparency and that none of those listed are still serving within the Archdiocese.

Jessa had five inappropriate jokes for the title of this episode but refrained from using them.  Instead, we give you a very bland titled episode to a very complicated topic -- whether sexual offenders who have served their sentences should be subject to civil commitment after they conclude their time based on their mental disorder status and likelihood to re-offend.

While there is an ever increasing number of people who have been identified in this #metoo culture for sexual abuse, harassment or gender violence, we rarely hear what happens once they are dismissed or replaced. Do they seek treatment? Is treatment for sexual offenders available and effective? In this episode Steven Sawyer, licensed clinical social worker, co- author of Group Therapy with Sexual Abusers, and president of the Minnesota chapter of the Association for the Treatment of Sexual Abusers (MNATSA) will draw upon years of treatment experience, research and assessment of hundreds of sexual offenders to clarify the continuum of sexual offenders and the nature and effectiveness of treatment models. He will consider what would unfold in individual treatment and the healing possibilities of group. He will offer case examples, discuss prevention programs, and consider the role that our culture plays in sexual invitation, dominance, inequities and offense.

Carol the Coach will be interviewing the founder of CONversation who helps families to deal with their loved ones prison sentence and re-entry into the community.

Tonight's special guest is Don Abernathy of Long Beach, California, who, with his brother David, runs a crime fighting organization called "Cuffed and Wanted." They generate a twice-a-month publication and web site (www.CuffedAndWanted.com) that educates and informs citizens about the people and services in their community, principally the area of Los Angeles County. Included is information on people who have recently been arrested or are currently wanted by city, county, state and federal law enforcement. The public can view daily arrest reports from around the county (about 800 arrests are made each day) and can also view current "wanted" info (they note that about 15% of the registered Sexual Offenders in LA County are in violation of their registration status).  The bi-weekly "Cuffed and Wanted" publication empowers citizens with what is happening around them in their communities and neighborhoods, with an aim to give the community a greater awareness and understanding of what is going on, and knowledge is power. The many current changes in the criminal justice system and their impact on the cities, counties and state, are a concern to everyone. "Cuffed and Wanted" is a valuable publication for all law enforcement agencies and law abiding citizens in the diverse communities.

Editor-in-chief Shawn Kennedy discusses with Dowdell her ground-breaking research on risky Internet behaviors in adolescents and young adults and where it may intersect with the online activity of sexual offenders. The results are concerning and point to areas where safeguards and education are needed.
