As was mentioned earlier sex assault investigations cover a wide breadth of different incidents that fall under this classification. It would be impossible to cover all of these in a single course. In this unit, we are going to explore a few of the more common and interesting topics. These will include false allegations, a common but extremely sensitive topic all investigators are accustomed to deal with. In addition, we will study collateral material, drug-facilitated sexual assaults, and the sexual sadist.
At the end of this unit you should be able to:
Explain Drug Facilitated Sex Assaults
Discuss sexual sadists and their motives
Debate the legalities and practical considerations to false allegations
