High Court finds secret recording can be used as evidence in DV case
While most recordings of private conversations are illegal, the High Court found the recording was allowed because it was necessary to protect the victim's "bodily autonomy and integrity".

NJ is listening to the youth! Huge win for child safety. Argument of drive at 16, etc. is a silencing pitch. Victims know if they are not safe. Time for children’s rights for safety to be acknowledged. Kids aren’t evergreen products for “experts.” www.nj.com/politics/202...

N.J. just gave kids a powerful voice in custody battles. It’s already dividing courtrooms.
Judges must now privately meet with a child who requests to be heard — and their rulings must mention the child’s wishes
