Sherry,
I was raped four years ago yesterday. I haven't read the article but from your blurts - there are certainly more heinous things. If someone has insurance, it would be covered under it. If it isn't, they can have it waived by the hospital. (I know because at the time, I didn't have health insurance.)

The costs of the kit can be recouped thru most state's victims compensation programs.

The headlines are salacious - but it's not necessarily as bad as you scream.

I'd much rather the money for the kits be used by police departments to investigate crimes.

Good grief! Saw the video, and can't believe the state is saying there is an ample fund and the rape kits are paid automatically, and yet at the same time the victims are being denied! - Then again, maybe I can believe it - Seems like same crap different day where one hand doesn't know what the other is doing - they (the state), need to get their act together! That is just beyond rediculous

Perhaps a nice class action lawsuit would bring them to their senses...Lawyers just looking for something like this...Report also to the hated ACLU !! They love stuff like this!
