About this listen
In this episode, Caroline engages with Kathleen, a LA Clinical Social Worker and faculty at Stony Brook University teaching trauma courses and has a long standing course on child and adult sexual violence and long term acute and long term sequela.
Together they discuss the issues of strangulation. Kathleen explains that a perpetrator’s remorse does not diminish the gravity of their actions and the seriousness of this crime. Kathleen invites you to read the research of Gail Strach and George McLean, who have established guidelines for investigating strangulation cases.
Furthermore, Kathleen calls attention to the significant need for further research into the neurological effects of strangulation on victims, emphasising the urgency of understanding these impacts for later life, and the development of dementia in victims.
Content note: "Please be mindful of your emotional well-being during this session, as we will cover sensitive topics related to strangulation, its impacts, and dynamics, including intersections with other crimes."
