This podcast explores topics of intimate partner violence, abuse, and other forms of trauma. If you have the strength to listen, please do so with care. 

 

The United States v. Rahimi brought about a telling ruling that could have a widespread impact on the policing of domestic and family violence cases involving firearms. To help unpack the Rahimi decision and its consequences, William and Samantha are joined by Amanda, the Legal Sub-Team Manager at TCFV, who explains how she ended up at TCFV and why she got involved in this line of work. Then, we dive into the Rahimi case and begin to understand its core issues before seeing how the case played out in various courts, the underlying issues that made advocates fearful of the final ruling, how Bruen relates to Rahimi, and the ins and outs of the Supreme Court’s decision. To end, we share everything we hope will happen next after the relief of the Rahimi verdict.
