A Discussion on Sexual Assault & Utah's Rape Kit Legislation

We sat down with Nicole Bedera, a Sociology PHD student at the University of Michigan and former member of the Hospital Response Team at the Rape Recovery Center. We're also joined by Darrah Jones who has spent years as a sexual assault support advocate at the University of Utah. This discussion spans a variety of topics regarding rape and sexual assault. Such as Utah's higher rates of rape and sexual violence compared to the rest of the country. We also topics such as intersectionality, police training, what the rape kit process is actually like and why Angela Romero's legislation demanding the testing of backlogged rape kits is so important.
