Ep 03 - Reactions

from Unspeakable Hosted by Victoria Police

Historically people have wrongly assumed that victims would resist, fight back or have injuries from a sexual assault or rape. Research and victim accounts tell us otherwise, turning on their head any notions of 'typical' or 'normal' reactions. In this episode, we speak with a senior researcher for ANROWS about a 2013 study conducted by VicHealth, Carolyn Worth for SECASA, Dandenong SOCIT Detective, Joanne McDonald and Di, a victim-survivor who was tragically abused by her father from the age of nine.
