dc.description.notes | RESOLVE, formerly known as the Manitoba Research Centre on Family Violence and Violence Against Women, is a regional research network involving the three prairie provinces of Canada.<br/ >Describes how rising arrest rates in cases of domestic violence in Canada has led to the unintended consequence of dual arrests and presents recommendations to deal with this situation. As the criminal justice system has become more involved with providing greater protection to victims of domestic violence, police are increasingly faced with counter allegations from the alleged perpetrator resulting in both the woman caller and male partner being arrested. While in some cases violence may have been used by both parties, in other cases, women claim they were never violent or that violence was used only in self-defence. Recommendations put forward in the province of Manitoba include: use of ‘primary aggressor’ policies which require the police to identify the individual considered the perpetrator, specialised training for police to assist officers in determining who is the primary aggressor and Crown Attorney review where the crown prosecutor would review the evidence before proceeding with a second arrest. | en |
