  • October is National Domestic Violence Awareness Month. On the average, more than three women are murdered by their husbands or boyfriends every day (Bureau of Justice Statistics Crime Data Brief, February 2003). During the month of October there will be considerable discussions about domestic violence in the media. Few, if any, will deal with domestic violence and clergy. The stories of battered clergy wives Mary Winkler (April 2006) and Prophetess Juanita Bynum (August 2007) shook the nation and confounded the Christian community. Domestic violence in seemingly happy and wholesome clergy homes seems unthinkable.

  • This article reports findings from the evaluation of a city-county criminal prosecution unit for domestic violence involving children. Data from 446 cases prosecuted in the first 2 years of the Joint Prosecution Unit (JPU) were compared to a matched group of 446 domestic abuse cases prosecuted by both the city and county attorneys' offices in the 2 years prior to inception of the JPU. Results of the comparisons indicated that fewer cases were declined or dismissed by the new unit, and that cases were prosecuted at a significantly more stringent level. Multinomial logistic regression analysis indicated that child and weapon factors were associated with increased likelihood of a more serious (i.e., felony) plea for the new prosecution unit, relative to the comparison group. Results are pr...

  • Demographic, social, and empowerment factors associated with attitudes toward intimate partner violence (IPV) were investigated in a random sample of women (n = 5,029) aged 15-49 years in Zambia. Data was retrieved from the Zambia Demographic and Health Survey 2001-2002 (2003). The findings indicated demographic, social, and structural differences in attitudes toward IPV. Married/previously married and less educated women, employees in the agricultural sector, and women with a history of IPV were more likely to tolerate IPV. In addition, structurally disempowered women (i.e., women lacking access to information and autonomy in household decisions) were more likely to justify IPV than more-empowered peers. Most variables remained significant even when possible confounding was adjusted fo...
