Claims10
A method for obtaining temporal semen samples as evidence of a forced sexual encounter having occurred within two days of a previous consensual encounter,
- said method comprising:
- providing three or more individual swabs that each target one of three or more regions of a subject vaginal canal to obtain separate individual semen samples with each of the three or more individual swabs that directly correspond to one or the three or more regions of the vaginal canal;
- and
- providing the three or more individual swabs to test whether the separate individual semen samples collected differ between the three or more regions of the vaginal canal, where a temporal relationship between positional depth of the separate individual semen samples and differences in consistency of deposited semen in the vaginal canal is used to determine a timeline of sexual encounters.
