IN ESTO - What really happened to Adrianna Hutto? Bonus content - Dr Kamala London's expert opinion.Dr Kamala London gives her expert opinion on the interviews and testimony of AJ Hutto. Dr London is the Department of Psychology, Professor & Department Chair at the University of Toledo. She has a Postdoctoral Fellowship at John Hopkins University and is the authority on memory and suggestibility in children and adolescents especially during court testimony.I have broken this episode into 4 chapters:First, the interview by the sheriffs and influences beforehand.Secondly, the direct impact on AJ and why the interviewers appear to have had little understanding of the potential burden being put on a six-year-old.Thirdly, the lack of open questions and why the trial testimony was meaningless.Lastly, what best practice should look like when interviewing a small child. Including “Narrative Practice” and “Hypothesis Testing” rather than a “Hypothesis Confirming” approach.Written and Produced by N Leigh HuntTheme music by Bart Mendoza and Manual ScanAdditional info graciously provided by Georgetown University's Making An Exoneree Program and Investigator Kimberly Hunter Hosted on Acast.
