SAN RAFAEL, Calif., July 17, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The Center for Judicial Excellence (CJE), a national nonprofit committed to fostering accountability in family courts and protecting children from domestic violence and child abuse, today released a major report detailing the perpetual rise in the number of children murdered by a divorcing, separating or court-involved parent due to systemic failures in family courts across the United States.

Key Points: 
  • The report details some of the most glaring gaps in the family court system that enable these preventable child homicides, while also offering specific recommendations for urgently addressing them.
  • Among the gaps outlined in the report are that family courts often ignore signs of child abuse and expose children to ongoing domestic violence.
  • The family court system requires significant financial resources to access, and as a result, many lower-income parents find themselves at a disadvantage.
  • Sen. Rubio added that, "this report offers evidence-based approaches that judges and other family court professionals can follow to better protect our children while in family court."
