Tightening the chain of evidence
Article Abstract:
A new emergency team at Long Beach Community Hospital Medical Center (Long Beach, CA) is aiming to make it easier for health care practitioners to assemble evidence needed to convict rapists. The Sexual Assault response team is arranged to deal with rape victims exclusively, and is trained to gather evidence and send the woman home within a few hours. The procedure is more effective than traditional emergency room examinations, and is more likely to result in a conviction.
