Kelly Binder says she was drugged and raped two years ago by a man she met at a bar in downtown Denver. She is upset police didn’t test her rape kit because she is concerned her attacker could still be raping other people.
Since 2008, DPD has received 1,064 rape kits, but 44 percent of those kits have never been tested.
Since 2007, Fort Collins has collected 243 rape kits. 72 percent of those rape kits were not tested.
During the last five years, Jefferson County .. 64 percent of its rape kits have not been tested.
Karen Moldovan with the Colorado Coalition Against Sexual Assault said departments need to do a better job testing rape evidence.
Binder feels like she’s been victimized twice — once by her attacker, and again by the system that was supposed to protect her.
“The fact that my rape kit test, was never submitted into the system, just allows another predator to go free, to do this again to somebody else,” Binder said.
Your “rape kit” should come in 9mm.
