The DOJ is up to its old tricks. UGH.

You may remember back in May, the Dept. of Justice had a seminar on "Law Enforcement Response: Approaching Your Work with a Trauma–Informed Lens." We weren't impressed: http://www.ifeminists.net/e107_plugins/content/content.php?content.1456

Now, the DOJ is doing Part II: "Building Trauma-Informed ORGANIZATIONS." Here's the course description: "This training provides guidance on how your organization can become trauma-informed and how to modify policies and procedures to respond to trauma victims."

Do you see anything about due process? Presumption of innocence? The necessity of impartial and fair investigations?

Nope.

More and more, we're coming to the conclusion that the DOJ is part of the problem, not part of the solution.
