Description
This unique handbook educates readers in how drugs are used as weapons in committing sexual assaults. It is designed for everyone involved
in the investigation of these crimes including forensic scientists, law enforcement officers, lawyers, toxicologists, and medical professionals.
Drug-Facilitated Sexual Assault looks at the history of these crimes over the years and includes an in-depth discussion
of the drugs and drug classes in use today. It describes the effects of these drugs on the victims, the type of person who uses drugs
to sexually assault an individual, and obstacles to investigating the suspect. The authors show how to properly collect and analyze
evidence, overcome some of the unique difficulties encountered in these types of investigations, and work with other professionals to
prosecute these cases successfully.
Audience
Forensic scientists, toxicologists, forensic nurses and emergency medical personnel, law enforcement officers, lawyers, date rape support/prevention groups, social historians and anthropologists.
