Then there was this wonderful story from last month: Rape victim jailed
Quote:
A 21-year-old woman who told police that a man raped her was jailed for two days after officers helping her found a warrant accusing her of failing to pay restitution for a 2003 theft arrest.
A jail worker later refused to give her a second dose of a morning-after pill to prevent pregnancy because of religious convictions, said Vic Moore, the college student's attorney. She was released from jail Monday only after Moore reported her plight to the local media.
