Unprintable

...what, you might ask?  My thoughts with regards to the fact that apparently 225,000 "rape kits" (samples of evidence collected from scenes/persons of sexual assault) remain unprocessed, and in thousands of cases, evidence collected in such "kits" has been destroyed, thus making it impossible for victim and accused alike to get justice. 


I'd wondered what the numbers were, and thank you to Michelle Malkin for providing an estimate.  It also stands to reason that if we want to do something big regarding sexual assault, getting funds together to get these kits processed, and making the data available in a nationwide database available to police, prosecutors, and the lawyers for the accused or convicted, would be huge.  We can differ over some specifics like the structure of Title IX and the like, but hopefully we can all agree on this.
