Claudine Dombrowski: An abused mom victimized again by the Kansas Courts

Victims of domestic violence suffer physical and emotional trauma at the hands of their abusers. Some don’t escape these relationships alive. But even for those who are fortunate enough to get out with their lives, their ordeal isn’t necessarily over. In many cases their tormentors still pose a threat to them and their children. And as they try to protect themselves and their loved ones they are often victimized again; this time by the very legal system they thought would provide them with justice and a safety net. There are way too many horror stories out there about how these vulnerable women are subjected to even more abuse as they go through the system. And one of the most troublesome scenarios is when the courts issue a ruling that removes their children from them, sometimes awarding custody to the abuser. On the Juror Thirteen show on August 26 we’ll talk about this problem with three women who can speak from personal experience. Advocate and author Susan Murphy-Milano, and Janice Levinson and Claudine Dombrowski of the Protective Mothers Alliance will discuss what mothers can do to bring about change in the treatment of protective mothers and their children in family court proceedings. All three have lost children to maternal deprivation abuse. Your questions or comments can be called in by phone or made through the show’s chat room. |

Child Abuse Awareness
April is child abuse awareness month and ACRA has invited you to join us in a walk followed by a candlelight vigil to help bring awareness to child abuse and system abuse. Please share this will all of your family and friends so we can work together to make a difference in our community. Child Abuse Statistics
4 children die everyday
as a result of child abuse and three
out of 4 of these victims are under the
age of four. Of reported rapes of children under 12 years old, 90% of the victims knew the perpetrator. Child abuse occurs at every socio-economic level, across ethnic and cultural lines, within all religions and at all levels of education. |
According to the American Judges Association
Approximately 70% of batterers obtain sole or joint custody.Batterers succeed in convincing authorities that the non-offending parent is unfit or undeserving of sole custody. If the American Judges Association knows of this why do they continue to put children at risk?
Judges must be educated in child sexual
abuse to help protect and prevent any
re-occurring abuse. A study done by "Neustein & Goetting (1999)" shows 300 cases studied over a 10 year period in which the 'non-offending' parent sought to protect their child/children from sexual abuse, found that 70% resulted in unsupervised visitation or shared custody; 20% of cases the 'protective parent' completely lost custody, and many of these lost all visitation rights. The bottom line is that children are NOT being protected
