I thought I had heard it all.

I was wrong.

Wasilla Police Billed Sexual Assault Victims for Their Own Rape Kits
08Sep08

Of all of the things I’ve learned about Sarah Palin in the last week and a half, this has got to be the most disturbing. While Sarah Palin was serving as the Mayor of Wasilla, Alaska, the city charged victims of sexual assault between $300 and $1200 for their own rape kits. A rape kit is a sexual assault forensic evidence kit, used to collect DNA that can be used in criminal proceedings to assist in the conviction of those who commit sex crimes. The kit is performed as soon as possible after a sexual assault or attack has been committed. It is usually humiliating and uncomfortable for the victim–imagine enduring that and then paying $1200 just so that the criminal who assaulted you might be caught.

There are times when I believe, erroneously, that there is no low that this bunch won’t sink to. And always, I’m wrong.

FORCING RAPE VICTIMS TO PAY FOR THEIR OWN RAPE KITS???

UPDATE: Remember, if you got pregnant from said rape, McCain’s Choice would FORCE YOU TO CARRY THE PREGNANCY TO TERM…in ‘ her’ America.
