TY - JOUR PY - 2010// TI - Educator sexual abuse: two case reports JO - Journal of child sexual abuse A1 - Burgess, Ann Wolbert A1 - Welner, Michael A1 - Willis, Danny G. SP - 387 EP - 402 VL - 19 IS - 4 N2 - Sexual abuse by educators has become an increasingly noted type of sexual abuse, especially among adolescents, for two reasons. First, there is a potential for these cases to be silent and prolonged and second, when disclosed, the forensic implications usually include both criminal and/or civil sanctions. For forensic case evaluations, developmental traumatology, or the intersection of the traumatic event(s) at a particular age of the student, is often the evaluating framework. We report on two forensic cases of a female student and a male student to emphasize the dynamics of adolescent sexual victimization, its impact on adolescent development, and evidence-based practice for symptom identification and treatment.
