Public Radio Profile of DV Prosecutions at Pascua Yaqui

Here.

An excerpt:

FRED URBINA: In 19 of our cases, we had 18 children involved; the average age being around 4 years old. Some of them were assaulted. A lot of times it was the children that were calling to report these domestic violence incidents. 
MORALES: The Justice Department chose the Pascua Yaqui to pilot the program because they have state certified judges and lawyers and a brand new courthouse and jail. Police Chief Michael Valenzuela says the old jail was a two-bedroom house with a cage. 
M. VALENZUELA: In the past, if someone was in jail people could go outside and knock on the window and talk – yeah and they did. We’d have to shoo them away. It was not safe. We had people assaulted. 
MORALES: Now, thanks to federal stimulus money, they have a 65,000-square-foot justice complex.
