6. Dean's Trial part 2

Episode 6 of Criminal Justice in Action: Rape on Trial sees us back in Court 2 as Dean's rape trial continues. Dean stands accused of rape and sexual assault against Anya, his girlfriend/partner at the time.We pick up where we left off in episode 5, with Anya about to undergo cross-examination. In contrast to the cross-examination of rape complainants in Tariq and Jerome's trials, Anya's experience in the witness box more closely aligns with what we might expect to see, given mainstream accounts of rape trials and the conduct of the defence.**Listener discretion is advised**If you or someone you know has been affected by any of the issues raised in this episode, please visit our website https://criminaljusticeinaction.com for information about help and support.Criminal Justice in Action is a Scrutiny Media production.Researched, written and presented by Dr Candida Saunders.Music: Hopeless Waltz by Alena Smirnova.
