I am so very impressed with the caring, discipline, and intelligence of this fine lady and her incredible team. We would do well as a society to fund the development and training of more people with her skills. I also love her sense of humor, which probably helps her stay sane in the face of the traumatic events she deals with every day.
Being disabled and on the couch a lot. I decided instead of watching so much tv like csi no never watched it. I'd watch educational RU-vid videos found a great one here. Loved watching.
Rose Mary Parker The same for me. I don’t think I’ve learned so much new stuff so quickly as possible with these kind of lectures. Hope you’ve learned other great things since commenting.
I have had the privilege and honour of meeting this woman, a couple of times. She is my inspiration. Your university is so lucky to have this woman. Dundee’s loss, is Lancaster’s gain!
That story about the girl who's father was found "not guilty" because she didn't cry hits me in a way I can't describe. If that girl is no longer alive, that jury has her blood on their hands. Regardless, I wish nothing but torment and misery for every single one of them... Every day for eternity... How absolutely dare they ignore factual, blatant evidence. I hope they all suffer greatly.
This woman is amazing! The depth of knowledge and her way of sharing that knowledge are commendable. I started to cry when she talked of the sex crime’s. Thank you for your service!
I'm a victim. Still at 60 I still have a hard time dealing with life, suffer from depression, and have tried to take my life many times. Have lost all my loved one.
She has done a TED talk, a talk with Wired and another with another biggie but I can't remember. All on RU-vid she truly is a remarkable woman and one of my heroines. I just wish I was smart enough to read her textbooks
I just ordered your book Sue! Can’t wait to get it! I’ve seen all your video’s and love them all. Thank you for sharing your difficult world with us. As a nurse I saw too many incidents of child molestation, and the USA has a judicial system that refuses to incarcerate child molesters. I so support your new endeavor for our children everywhere..
I was discouraged from forensic anthropology because I was a portrait artist. My artistic mind wouldn’t fare well. Fast forward 20 years, I’m a certified phlebotomist who went back to school to study mortuary sciences. If I could only go back🥺. I worked as a sommelier for over a decade; we’re known for our sense of smell.
This is fabulous and so well placed to foster engagement. I could listen forever. The book is fabulous and, the audiobook is even more engaging. So much is conveyed in the reading/listening. What skill, knowledge and empathic depth.
She is a hero to all victims of abuses on children and teens, many of the victims are to manipulated and fearful to tell and just go along with the abuser,for years. And the sad thing is these sex offenders of children and teens convince the victims that it is meant to be.
No, they are often their caretakers....no choices...and as she has said the disabled children in previous video are a huge percetage, who cannot speak up often :(
I hope so much to see her live one day and maybe be able to be reached by her As much as terrible all this is, her dedication brings peace to the mind somehow and it inspires to take action
The statistics for CSA don't surprise me. Just in my own circle I know of three cases and those are the ones I know about. My stepdaughter was repeatedly assaulted by her mother's lover. When she told her mum she said she was lying.
I'd watched the earlier vid based just on the one case, where the monster was found not guilty--almost didn't watch the end here because I didn't want to hear that terrible story--but surprise! She got him!
WOW!!! I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED FORENSIC FILES, THE REAL LIFE ONE, NOT THE MADE UP TV SHOW LIKE BONES. ANYWAY, I JUST LOVED LISTENING TO HER!!! A VERY BRILLIANT FUNNY LADY!!!
Hi Mary, yes, our public lectures are exactly that. For obvious reasons, they aren't running right now, but you can see come of our previous ones on this page, and book onto new ones as they are announced: www.lancaster.ac.uk/events/public-lectures/
People don't want to fund ideas like this. That's because, overwhelmingly, the people with the most money are older, white, males. Some of these people do get sexually abused. However, the majority of people who suffer sexual abuse are young, CALD/BAME/POC, women, or people with a disability. These are the people who have the least financial resources. Car theft technology gets funded, because guess who owns the most expensive cars? I say this as someone who was sexually assaulted as a girl. The real problem is how to convince the wealthy, white, males to spend money on something which they might not get much personal benefit from.
Oh, please child!! It is ~ *"overwhelmingly"* ~ the perpetrators of these sadistic, godless &horrific crimes whom do NOT want to "fund" these ideas!! Yes, many "older, 'white' males" ~ depending on who exactly you consider "white" ~ possibly do "have the *MOST* money" in places such as the UK, as well as the US, however there are many extremely wealthy "POC's" all of the the globe & in these (once) United States also!! Oprah became fabulously wealthy hosting a "talk-show" & GIVING AWAY CARS, ffs!! Ever heard of the Middle East?? You think those Arabs are giving their oil away, for free?? ROFL Jesus Christ on Crutches ~ but we should just stick w/people you know, Right? ~ So, did you know.......Michael Jordan, Jay Z, Tyler Perry & Kanya West are all BILLIONAIRES.......is that NOT enough to invest in something that doesn't give them "personal benefit"?!! I'd suggest you stop wasting your time on video games & investing in the "white guilt" narrative that is so predominate in today's cancel culture......but you appear to be thoroughly brainwashed, SMDH
Silent Whitless is so bad too. Why do they work in the dark, why are they behaving like police detectives because they aren't, then there is the lady who is from the family of well known wooden actors, give me a break. Why can't they produce a more realistic forensic science program?
Yeah right - devoid 🤣 should watch your cheek, she knows how to get away with murder! She is a leading academic, I'm sure you could learn a great deal in forensic anthropology from her, and even anthropology! If your learning comes to all she has achieved, you'll have done incredibly well. Enjoy your studies
