Extensively reorganized and revised, this classic bestseller continues to provide professionals across disciplines with a common resource for rape investigation. It brings into focus the five different principals involved in a rape investigation: the police investigator, examining nurse, forensic scientist, crisis counselor, and prosecutor. With contributions from experts in each of these fields, the book demonstrates how professionals can work together to more effectively handle even the most complex sexual assault crime. This edition adds chapters on drug-facilitated sexual assault, geographic profiling of rape, medical examination of sexually abused children, and linkage analysis.
