Zusammenfassung: | "There is a silent epidemic of childhood sexual abuse in the United States, but our legal system is not effectively protecting the most innocent from predators. Recent coverage of widespread abuse in schools and in churches has brought the once-taboo subject of childhood sexual abuse to the forefront. Despite increased awareness of this crisis, the United States has not succeeded in establishing effective means of deterring and preventing abuse or providing justice to victims." "Popular legal fixes, like sex offender registries, increased sentences, and pedophile-free zones, are ineffective without acknowledging that the problem extends well beyond schools and churches. The vast majority of survivors are sexually abused by family or family acquaintances - with 90 percent of abuse never being reported to the authorities." "In Justice Denied, Marci A. Hamilton proposes a comprehensive yet simple solution: eliminate the arbitrary statutes of limitations for childhood sexual abuse so that survivors past and present can get into court. Most states have such short statutes of limitations that survivors cannot get to court before the doors are locked shut. Removing this arbitrary barrier would permit survivors to unmask their perpetrators and open a path to justice and public vindication."--Jacket |

Hamilton proposes a comprehensive yet simple solution: eliminate the arbitrary statutes of limitations for childhood sexual abuse so that survivors past and present can get into court. Most states have such short statutes of limitations that survivors cannot get to court before the doors are locked shut. Removing this arbitrary barrier would permit survivors to unmask their perpetrators and open a path to justice and public vindication."--Jacket</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="588" ind1="0" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Print version record.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="546" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">English.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Child sexual abuse</subfield><subfield code="z">United States.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Child abuse</subfield><subfield code="x">Law and legislation</subfield><subfield code="z">United States.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Time (Law)</subfield><subfield code="z">United States.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Délai (Droit)</subfield><subfield code="z">États-Unis.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">LAW</subfield><subfield code="x">Criminal Law</subfield><subfield code="x">General.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Child abuse</subfield><subfield code="x">Law and legislation</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Child sexual abuse</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Time (Law)</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">United States</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PBJtxgQXMWqmjMjjwXRHgrq</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Sexueller Missbrauch</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="0">http://d-nb.info/gnd/4126865-9</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Strafverfahrensrecht</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="0">http://d-nb.info/gnd/4116635-8</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Verjährung</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="0">http://d-nb.info/gnd/4187781-0</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Kind</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="0">http://d-nb.info/gnd/4030550-8</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Strafverfolgung</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="0">http://d-nb.info/gnd/4057803-3</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">USA</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="0">http://d-nb.info/gnd/4078704-7</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="758" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="i">has work:</subfield><subfield code="a">Justice denied (Text)</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PCYRPwR4Jg8yfbXxc3jypPP</subfield><subfield code="4">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/ontology/hasWork</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1="0" ind2="8"><subfield code="i">Print version:</subfield><subfield code="a">Hamilton, Marci.</subfield><subfield code="t">Justice denied.</subfield><subfield code="d">Cambridge ;

Cambridge ; New York : Cambridge University Press, 2008. 1 online resource (viii, 160 pages) text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Includes bibliographical references (pages 129-154) and index. We have failed our children -- What is wrong with the system? : the courthouse doors are closed to survivors -- The solution is clear and simple : abolish the statutes of limitation for childhood sexual abuse -- What it will take to protect children : what the states must do; what the federal government should do -- Barrier #1 : the insurance industry -- Barrier #2 : the hierarchy of the Roman Catholic Church -- The other barriers : teachers, defense attorneys, and an uninformed public -- Conclusion: The coming civil rights movement for children. "There is a silent epidemic of childhood sexual abuse in the United States, but our legal system is not effectively protecting the most innocent from predators. Recent coverage of widespread abuse in schools and in churches has brought the once-taboo subject of childhood sexual abuse to the forefront. Despite increased awareness of this crisis, the United States has not succeeded in establishing effective means of deterring and preventing abuse or providing justice to victims." "Popular legal fixes, like sex offender registries, increased sentences, and pedophile-free zones, are ineffective without acknowledging that the problem extends well beyond schools and churches. The vast majority of survivors are sexually abused by family or family acquaintances - with 90 percent of abuse never being reported to the authorities." "In Justice Denied, Marci A. Hamilton proposes a comprehensive yet simple solution: eliminate the arbitrary statutes of limitations for childhood sexual abuse so that survivors past and present can get into court. Most states have such short statutes of limitations that survivors cannot get to court before the doors are locked shut. Removing this arbitrary barrier would permit survivors to unmask their perpetrators and open a path to justice and public vindication."--Jacket Print version record. English.
