RAPE KITS - $490 = JUSTICE ????????????? NO
Hello $490 = Justice ????
Women who have been Victims of rape, incest should not have to band together to raise funds to have their RAPE KITS analyzed !!!!!! $490 is the estimated cost of analyzing a medical Rape Kit....
This is a function of government, police - and the local governments who cannot afford to test those RKs should get additional funding from the Legislature....This should not be a partisan issue...a tax no tax issue....The Legislature should create a fund that local governments can withdraw from, for this issue....
NO person should pay after they have been a victim of a violent crime to get Justice - our society is wrong ....if we allow RKs to be held hostage or to age because of a lack of funds to test them....
These women deserve Justice and in a timely manner.....
Rochelle, $490 + Justice.... (Detroit Free Press)
Are you going to do an article about $490 = Justice, the Michigan Legislature that just voted and the Governor signed a bill into law - giving gun purchasers a tax break - when buying a gun lock or gun safe...a tax break... a Republican Legislature that voted to end a tax credit to the working poor !!!! and women have to band together to pay for rape kit testing ?????
And AG Schuette jumping on the band wagon - to get money for rape kit testing - OMG what a hypocrite....he spent millions of tax dollars fighting gay marriage and now he gets on board the Kym Worthy efforts to get rape kit money .....
