Our guest today is Niagara County District Attorney Matthew J. Murphy III. As District Attorney, Matt helped to develop a model domestic violence program that has been set a new standard for the rest of New York State. He is joined today by UB Clinical Professor Suzanne Tomkins to talk about his work in domestic violence.

Matt's efforts have resulted in his presentation of the program to a seminar at the National District Attorney's Association in Arlington, Virginia, in May 1996. He also served on a New York State Task Force that developed a Model Domestic Violence Policy for Counties. He also created the first Criminal Environmental Task Force in Upstate New York in 1995.

Thank you for joining us today. The theme music is Baja Taxi by Brain Buckit, and is available through the Podsafe Music Network. Please join us again next time for another faculty conversation from University at Buffalo Law School.
