About this listen
In this episode of Out of the Question Podcast, host Andrea Schwartz speaks with attorney and former domestic violence victim, Sally Owen, to uncover the hidden biases in today’s legal system. While domestic abuse is a serious issue, Owen highlights how the court system often presumes men guilty without evidence, issuing life-altering protection orders based solely on accusations. Drawing from her own experiences of abuse and her legal career, Sally explains how these civil proceedings strip men of rights, careers, and reputations—without the due process guaranteed in criminal trials.
The conversation dives into hard but necessary questions: Is the domestic violence court system truly about justice, or is it driven by politics, bias, and fear of public backlash? Together, Andrea and Sally explore how laws intended to protect women have instead created deep injustices for men, why perjury often goes unpunished, and how a biblical worldview of equal justice for all offers a better foundation. This timely episode challenges cultural assumptions, sparks discussion on abuse and fairness, and calls listeners to rethink justice through the lens of truth and accountability.
