If you’ve listened to this show for any length of time, and most likely even if you haven’t, you know the US legal system all too often fails domestic abuse survivors, especially women, children, and adolescents. My guest, Professor Dale Margolin Cecka, knows it all too well. Professor Cecka is an advocate for women, children, and teens who have survived domestic abuse. Not only that, but she’s also a law professor, former Superior Court senior staff attorney, former Assistant Attorney General of Georgia, and the Director of Albany Law School’s Family Violence Litigation Clinic.For this episode, I talked with Professor Cecka about her experience and expertise, and many related topics. I think you’ll enjoy this fascinating conversation as much as I did!Links related to this episode:Professor Cecka’s recent article in The Imprint: https://imprintnews.org/opinion/new-york-gov-kathy-hochul-can-fix-anonymous-reporting-problem/264606“Inequity in Child Custody Legislation”: https://academicworks.cuny.edu/clr/vol20/iss1/8/ “Improper Delegation of Judicial Authority in Child Custody Cases: Finally Overturned”: https://scholarship.richmond.edu/law-faculty-publications/1425/ USA Today op-ed on the Diddy case: https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2025/06/02/diddy-trial-cassie-macron-slapped-wife-domestic-violence/83924410007/ Cover photo by charlesdeluvio on Unsplash.Photos related to today's episode can be viewed on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/sufferthelittlechildrenpod You can also follow the podcast on:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sufferthelittlechildrenpodTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@STLCpodMy Linktree is available here: https://linktr.ee/stlcpod Visit the podcast's web page at https://www.sufferthelittlechildrenpod.com. By supporting me on Patreon, you'll also access rewards, including a shout-out by name on the podcast and exclusive rewards.
