Description: Please join us on January 21st at 3:00 pm (ET) for a live webinar that will provide a comprehensive overview of the dynamics and challenges investigating and prosecuting these cases, charging decisions, motion practice and current research on the intersection of intimate partner violence, pregnancy and related homicide of women and girls. When a victim in an abusive relationship is pregnant or becomes pregnant, their risk of interpersonal violence escalates. The pregnancy can affect the victim’s decisions; for leaving the relationship, reporting to police or going forward with a case prosecution.
