Csey and Jamie The gender of Casey and Jamie could be heterosexual, or LBGT, the scenario plays out across our country all to frequently. According to the Centers for Disease Control (2010) more than one in three women and one in four men have experienced rape, physical violence, or stalking form an intimate partner. Approximately twenty-four percent of women and thirteen percent of men have experienced severe physical violence from a partner (CDC, 2010). For Casey, making sure he/she is immediately safe is foremost and assessing for any physical injuries (McLeod, Muldoon, & Hays, 2010). If Casey has physical injuries, those need to be addressed and as a counselor it is important to be available to Casey and assure he/she that you are not

There have been court cases taken to trial where the evidence has been uncovered to have been retrieved under a violation of the Fourth Amendment, and consequently declared invalid. Such evidence was either obtained without a warrant or under unreasonable search and seizure. In cases where evidence is obtained under a violation of expectation of privacy, suspects can fight back in court and be held unaccountable for their crimes. They walk out of court with neither fines nor a sentence. With this said, evidence is off limits when retrieved under a violation of the Fourth Amendment. Otherwise, the evidence is valid and can be used to determine a criminal's luck from the moment the enter a court of justice.
The worker contacted Brittany Coleman, the sister of Jessica Farrand. Mrs. Coleman stated” I don’t think the children are being properly taken care of because Jessica is erratic, emotionally unstable, and she and Steven Burke both have a drug and alcohol problems”. Mrs. Coleman stated “Jessica is in an abusive relationship with Steven and he has put a gash on her forehead so bad my mother had to take her to the hospital. Jessica originally told my mother she fell and got the gash, but later admitted to me it was from fighting with Steven”. Mrs. Coleman stated “Jessica doesn’t talk to her children, all she does is scream, yell, and curse at them they don’t get any help from her they’re defenseless”. Mrs. Coleman stated “The children live in
The CDC reports that nearly half of all men and women in the United States have been psychologically abused by a romantic partner, while around a quarter of women and 1 in 7 men have been physically abused [2]. This is a dramatic difference from areas like the United Kingdom, where 8.2% of women and 4% of men have been abused [3] One in three people experience abuse by a romantic partner by the age of eighteen [4]. In 2015, 87% of hospitalized abuse victims in New York state were women, and were admitted more often than male victims [5]. This can likely be partially attributed to traditional gender roles, which assume that men are “stronger” than women and are “weak” if they are hurt by a woman.
Hi Mackenzie, I am in agreement with you and also believed the Court wrongfully validated the Texas law. Although, education is not directly expressed in the Constitution, it does not mean it is or cannot be a “fundamental” right. There have been many landmark cases that demonstrated a Court’s broader interpretation of a right protected by the Constitution. For instance, in Griswold v. Connecticut, the Court found a Connecticut law that prohibited the use of contraceptives by married couples unconstitutional. Additionally, the Court concluded that the law violated the rights of marital privacy and the right is afforded protection by the Constitution under the rights to privacy. Another example is Roe v. Wade, the Court found a Texas law
Jenn McCabe and Jamie Valente are a fantastic team and are role models to our chapter. They consistently work hard to plan and implement the chapter’s goals along with the officers. Without their constant hard work and guidance we would not have been able to accomplish every goal we had set. They always go out of their way to encourage the officers to strive to do their best. Jenn and Jamie have worked as a team planning any and all trips that we have attended and will be attending. This includes everything from regional and international conferences, hosting the Mini Honors Conference at Macomb Community College, and Alternative Spring Break.

Evaluate the situation in which Mason and Shepherd find themselves with respect to their existing employers. What legal and ethical issues do you see and how would you advise them to proceed?
Working with victims of domestic violence can be an extremely rewarding and fulfilling endeavor. One of the most crucial aspects for a paralegal working with victim of domestic violence is adequately engaging in the task of educating oneself to understand the commonalities of such victims and the ordeals that they have been through. Such clients are drastically different from other individuals who have suffered other physical and violent crimes. Understanding the background of someone who has lived through domestic violence is absolutely central to being able to provide adequate and sensitive legal care. Most victims of domestic violence are women (95%) though domestic violence can have an impact on ever age, class, race, ethnic, cultural or religious group (purplerainfoundation, 2012). "In the United States, nearly one in three adult women experience at least one physical assault by a partner during adulthood (American Psychological Association, Presidential Task Force on Violence and the Family 1996 Report)" (purplerainfoundation, 2012). These women are often terrified of their partner's temper, apologize when they are abused and often in the most extremely controlling and isolated environment where the abusive partner will control who the partner sees and where the partner goes outside of the home, jealous of outside relationships (purplerainfoundation, 2012). In these abusive relationships the women are hit,
Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) impacts millions of families worldwide (Watts & Zimmerman, 2002). In fact, in the United States alone on average nearly 20 people per minute are physically abused by an intimate partner. During one year, this equates to more than 10 million women and men (National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey, 2010). In light of this troubling information, the clinical social worker may find him or herself called upon to serve this most vulnerable population.
Domestic violence is a serious issue that cannot be ignored. In the situation given the patient’s safety, privacy, and autonomy must be taken into consideration when deciding on a course of action. As a medical student, training to become a health care professional, the patient would be my priority.
Regardless of their area of work, nurses have the potential to be exposed to the intimate partner violence (IPV) continuum. Often noticed as the front line workers, nurses are in a position to observe and assess situations where IPV is suspected, and intervene should these issues arise. Nurses are obligated to provide safe, holistic, quality care to victims of IPV and implement resources such as counseling, community support as well as physical and emotional support; “nurses work with persons who have health-care needs or are receiving care to enable them to attain their highest possible level of health and well-being” (CNA, 2017). Nurses have the ability to be a catalyst for positive change for individuals in abusive situations. Victims
The response to heterosexual domestic violence is addressed differently because often times it is the woman that is being physically, mentally and/or emotionally abused by her intimate partner (Almeida, et al, 2009). Law enforcers, organizations and families often come to the aid of the women simply because they feel the woman is of a weaker sex (Sargent, 2009). Although the cisgender community and the LGBT community experience physical, emotional and mental abuse both situations should be considered as equally
Next comes the phase of violence, which is characterized by hitting, slapping, kicking, choking, the use of objects or weapons, verbal threats or abuse, and sexual abuse. The final phase that sets the individuals up for the cycle to continue is the honeymoon phase. The honeymoon phase is noted by calm and apologetic demeanor. The individuals tend to go through denial about the abusive behavior, come up with excuses, and make promises about future behavior. While it is important to know how professionals define dating violence, it is also pivotal that those in the helping professions also have an understanding of how the teens themselves view the violence that occurs in their relationships. According to one study teens define abuse according to the context, intent, and actual harm caused (O’Keefe, 2005). In another study teens actually reported that in situations where revenge, retaliation, or prevention of face loss was the reason for the abusive behavior, the violence was justified (Sears, Byers, Whelan, & Saint-Pierre, 2006, p 1197). In the same study individuals reported that they also took into consideration whether the act was a result of their partner “just kidding” or a demonstration of their caring for their partner. Not only do definitions of interpersonal violence vary across the board, but they also vary significantly between males and females. Males and females have very different views as to what the purpose of
