Domestic Violence Treatment and Punishment Paper
A few years have passed, and Aaron has an adult domestic violence (DV) criminal case pending and a possible child abuse case pending. See the updated scenario. The memo should be updated to include an assessment of Aaron’s possible consequences given the history of the family. Include the following:
- The new component will discuss if there are real interventions that work for perpetrators of DV. Current theories suggest that it is very difficult to treat perpetrators and that recidivism is very high. Discuss recidivism and whether you believe perpetrators can change.
- Examine the costs to the community that are associated with DV.
