Our panel will discuss issues of sexual and domestic violence in the military, both the particular challenges of preventing sexual assault in the armed forces and how the military justice system prosecutes these crimes differently than its civilian counterparts. In particular, we will discuss the creation of independent victim advocates in the Judge Advocate General Corps, statutes of limitations on rape, and the emphasis the military justice system puts on pursuing cases of sexual violence in its ranks.
