Hah, what a copout. How come whenever anyone above the rank of Lieutenant f---ks up royally, somebody gives a lame excuse like that? You people are setting a bad example for your new recruits. Without integrity you will not have the respect of the officers or the public.

"Auditor Edelen Releases Special Report on Sexual Assault Evidence in Kentucky, Finding 3,090 Untested Sexual Assault Kits and Breakdowns in the Process for Handling Kits

Auditor Calls for Most Kits to be Submitted and Tested; New Policies and Training for Law Enforcement; Reform and More Resources at the Laboratory

Auditor Adam Edelen on Monday announced there are 3,090 untested sexual assault evidence kits in the Commonwealth and pledged to help fix a broken system that denies victims justice, jeopardizes public safety and clogs up the criminal justice system.

“The results of this initiative are stomach-turning,” Auditor Edelen said. “When a victim has the courage to undergo an invasive and traumatizing exam after an assault, he or she deserves to have the evidence in that sexual assault kit analyzed. One of government’s fundamental responsibilities is to bring these rapists to justice.”
