AL AL - Brittney Wood, 19, Mobile, 31 May 2012 - #13

Again, not familiar with how Alabama works, but typically trials are open to the public. I suppose a Judge could close his court room for good cause. The only good cause I could think of in this instance would be because we're dealing with minor victims and the Judge may want to avoid traumatizing the children by having people in the court room.

Hoping we get answers soon, and Brittney comes home.

Helping the victim, prosecuting the abuser
The Child Advocacy Center is a non-profit agency that employs the help of 28 professionals from seven different agencies. Each case referred for court is not handled by one person, but a team of Volunteer Victim Advocates. Pat Guyton, the director of the Child Advocacy Center, said the cases they handle have a 90-95 percent conviction rate. One of the reasons is vertical prosecution. That means Assistant District Attorney Nicki Patterson handles each case and it is not tossed from prosecutor to prosecutor. Guyton also said volunteer advocates use Trauma Focus Cognitive Behavior Therapy to help a victim heal. The therapy helps the victim understand the scar will always be there, but they do not have to live as a victim. The military uses the same therapy to help troops with PTSD.
