Naomi Shatz Speaks About University Sexual Assault Cases on BUTV

On a recent episode of BUTV’s On That Point, ZDB’s Naomi Shatz spoke about how colleges handle sexual assault cases.  When asked how university procedures  differ from criminal procedures for sexual assault Shatz said the difference “is like apples and oranges,” pointing to the higher burden of proof placed on the prosecutor trying to make a sexual assault case than the one schools must meet to find a student responsible for sexual assault, and procedural protections for defendants in criminal cases that are lacking in school procedures.
