Are abuse survivors best served when institutions investigate themselves?

No they should not  investigate themselves... because like in all catholic church homes... and orphanages worldwide... because they will use these same people... who they pay to NOT investigate themselves... but to investigate the victims-survivors... and then these same people... are paid to sit in on the mediation s... then the same people... pick out the counselors for us victims-survivors... who are told to report back to these people... about what we have told them... and then, that is reported back to the abusers...  this happened in Christchurch New Zealand... we never did get a fear go... it should be done... as like what is happening over in Australia... Ireland... and now England...  there should be... A New Zealand...  Independence Royal  Commission Inquiry... into the Abuse of Children... Ann
===============================
In the past years, we have heard many faith-based institutions announce the launching of independent investigations to address issues of past sexual abuse that have publicly surfaced. Whether it’s academic institutions, mission organizations, churches, or denominations, the term “independent investigation” has become almost fashionable.
When an organization is confronted with public allegations of child sexual abuse within their ranks, it finds itself under a bright spotlight as the watching world waits to see how it will respond. All too often, the overriding institutional concern has very little to do with caring for the victims, but everything to do with protecting its reputation by doing everything it can to shut off the spotlight. This is often accomplished by announcing that the institution will launch an “independent” investigation. The organization proceeds to hire a private investigative group or law firm to investigate the matter with the hope that this process will calm everyone down and eventually turn off the spotlight. Because the motivation for this process can be based upon institutional self-preservation, many investigations labeled as “independent” are nothing more than “internal” investigations in disguise. An internal investigation allows the institution being investigated to stay in the driver’s seat, while an independent investigation requires that they get into the backseat with everyone else.
