- 'Battered women syndrome': what is it?
- Battered women syndrome in the context of defence to murder
- An example of case where the 'battered woman syndrome' is used in the context of defence to murder
- Does it provide women a licence to kill or does it make law more gender neutral?
Résumé :
In a first part, I will explain what is the "battered woman syndrome" and then replace it in the context of defence to murder.
Then, I will illustrate this by an example and discuss the state of battered women who killed. I will especially look at the fact that the "battered woman syndrome" is often use as a defence on trial but is it fair to argue that women have a licence to kill and is it gender neutral?
