November 8, 2021 WebEx with Dr. Rocchio TFO • In order to apply for internship at Yale, needed 450 hours of practice • In order to get licensed, need 2 years of full time practice, I needs to be pre-doctoral, each year has to be 1500 hours • Licensure: national exam, in certain states have a state exam on laws or ethics, etc. • Reviewed draft Daubers motion for Dietz and Loftus: o LR thinks it's not necessarily right that it's hard to assess whether grooming has occurred, but it's right that it's difficult to predict whether grooming will occur (prospectively) o Hindsight bias: many grooming articles point out that they operate in hindsight o Halo effect may be an argument about how offenders compartmentalize/hide from others. That's well-known offender behavior, they hold themselves out as pillars of community. o LR won't argue that false allegations are impossible, but they are rare o LR agrees that normal memory fades over time, can be fragmented, peripheral details can be distorted — central foundational principles of memory. o Loftus has introduced traumatic memories (e.g. dog attack) in a lab. Usually involves a trusted person, repetition, motivation. LR is not an expert on deceiving people in labs to get them to believe things that didn't happen o Some of what Loftus says about conditions that induce false memory may also not be present in this case • There is both scientific and clinical literature (clinical is "how to do treatment," etc.) • In forensic practice, LR pays attention to ways prior vulnerabilities (1) may be a cause of later injuries, (2) make someone more vulnerable to grooming/coercion, or (3) exacerbated negative consequences • Third parties: mostly clinical literature, but grooming literature shows perpetrators try to use third parties to normalize situation • Duron article lays foundation for a discussion of coercive control • Delayed disclosure: o Betrayal trauma literature: abuse by a close other.
