“Domestic Violence Dynamics and Tribal Court” Presented By Pam Moore, Director Institute for Native Justice And Honorable Darrell Dowty, Cherokee Nation Supreme Court

Understanding Domestic Violence It is a crime It is not a fight but a pattern of coercive behavior designed to gain control of another person It is pervasive in communities; contributes to overall level of tolerance for violence Increases in frequency and severity Alcohol and drug abuse may be factors but are not the cause Is an extreme imbalance of power between partners Is not always understood by professionals such as law enforcement or social workers

Why doesn’t she just leave? Extreme fear, Knows it is dangerous—she could be killed Is afraid he will kill her or harm the children No job, no money Embarrassment, shame, humiliation Believes the violence is her fault Believes she has no choice Religious beliefs Does not want to leave her “stuff”

10 Things to Know 1.Appearances are deceiving. 2.There is no test to detect offenders. 3.Domestic Violence offenders usually only want to hurt and control her. 4.Children are at risk for injury and future problems. 5.Ordering a couple to counseling is dangerous. 6.Victims pursuing justice are in a no-win situation. 7.Domestic violence is not an argument. 8.Battered women are not “disturbed”. 9.Descriptions of Abuse are difficult to hear and believe. 10.Offenders must be held accountable.
