Quote: Judges seldom get to hear directly from parents to see whether they have been lying

“Ninety-five per cent of matters settle at an interim hearing; only five per cent of matters go to trial and actually have the evidence tested. Most people don't get into the witness box, most women don't get into the witness box, and they don't get to tell their story. It's like they're muted. This is what's happening now, and it has been happening for a long time.”
