2 later decisions quote this exact passage“Q: Did you ever discuss with [D.F.] in the course[ ] of your treatment why she delayed this report for over a year? A: Yes. We talked about why she finally did report it, and she talked about not wanting to report it when I saw her in 1996 because she and her family didn't want to press charges; and that changed throughout the course of time, and by 1997 she did want to report it.... Q: Dr. Pucci, do you have an opinion as to a reasonable degree of psychological certainty why someone would not report a crime like this under these circumstances? [DEFENSE COUNSEL]: Objection, your Honor. THE COURT: It's overruled. The witness may answer. A: Could you repeat the question? Q: Do you have an opinion to a reasonable degree of psychological certainty why someone would, in this position, would not immediately report a crime like this? A: Often people are reluctant to report this kind of crime because of threats the offender or the abuser makes to them about it, either directly telling them not to tell or threatening them if they do tell. Often people are embarrassed. They may be afraid that they are not going to be believed. Sometimes they have some positive feelings about the abuser and may not want to get that person into trouble. Those tend to be the most common reasons.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“Q: Dr. Pucci, what was your recollection of the reason [D.F.] did not want to report this in 1996? A: She did not want to press charges against Mr. Rizzo, and she just wanted him. to leave them alone and just wanted him to go away and not hurt anyone again. Q: Did she ever discuss with you anything in regard to concerns about whether or not she would be believed? Was that ever discussed that you recall or not? A: She told me that he, that Mr. Rizzo, had told her that if she told anyone she would not be believed. Q: 1997. Dr. Pucci, I'm framing that question in terms of your contact with her in 1997. Did she indicate at that time whether that was something she had internalized as a reason she didn't want to report, or was she discussing that with you as one of the many things that was said? A: My impression is that she had internalized it.”
