2009年，發現有 11,341 個未被檢測的強暴證據採集包——有些標示的日期是八○年代——被丟棄在底特律警局過去用來儲存證據的倉庫中。當這個醜聞被揭發時，檢察官金 姆 · 沃席發起了一個計畫來為數千名受害者伸張正義。在這場強大、讓人開眼界的演說中，沃席解釋她的辦公室如何協助開發一項創新的計畫，來追蹤和檢測這些採集包。她並呼籲全國人一起努力協助解決強暴證據採集包被堆積著的問題。

05:52
Now, criminals, like people
who raped Natasha and Pamela,
who raped Natasha and Pamela,
87
340520
5336
罪犯，像是強暴娜塔莎和潘美拉的人，
05:57
often leave their DNA at a crime scene.
88
345880
2000
通常會把他們的 DNA
留在犯罪現場。

06:00
But for a rape victim,
their body is the crime scene.

89

但對於強暴受害者來說，
她們的身體就是犯罪現場。

06:06
So many elect to go through this
hours-long rape kit process

90
354760

好多受害者選擇忍受一小時的
強暴證據採集過程，

06:11
that requires every inch and orifice

過程中，受害者身體上的
每一吋皮膚和每一個孔

to be combed, swabbed and photographed.
92
364880
4360
都必須要被徹底搜查、

06:22
All right after a violent sexual assault.
93
370360

一切全都是在暴力的性侵害
之後立即進行。

06:26
The reason that most people do this,
who have a rape kit,

94
374800
3056
大部分人決定接受
強暴證據採集的理由，
強暴證據採集的理由，
06:29
is because they want the forensic
scientists to study that rape kit.
scientists to study that rape kit.
95
377880
3616
是因為他們想要法庭科學家
分析那強暴證據採集包。
分析那強暴證據採集包。
06:33
And hopefully come up
with a genetic profile
with a genetic profile
96
381520
2816
希望能夠找出基因側寫，
06:36
that will help identify their perpetrator.
97
384360
2440
協助辨視出行兇者身分。
06:39
Once forensic scientists
come up with this genetic profile,
come up with this genetic profile,
98
387680
3096
一旦法庭科學家找出了基因側寫，
06:42
they enter it into CODIS,
hopefully have a match.
hopefully have a match.
99
390800
3776
就會把側寫送入 CODIS，
希望找到符合的人。
希望找到符合的人。
06:46
CODIS is filled with DNA profiles
of people who are arrested

07:11
Now, how did we get here?
105
419160
2200
我們怎麼會落到這步田地？
07:14
Detroit had no money.
106
422560
2160
底特律沒有錢。
07:18
It cost, at that time
that these kits were found,
that these kits were found,
107
426240
2336
在這些採集包被發現的時候，
07:20
up to 1,500 dollars per kit
to have it tested.
to have it tested.
108
428600
4976
檢測每個採集包的成本
高達 1500 美金。
高達 1500 美金。
07:25
So, you do the math
about how much that was going to cost.
about how much that was going to cost.
109
433600
2736
所以，你們可以自己算算看
總共要多少錢。
總共要多少錢。
07:28
In addition to that,
110
436360

此外，
07:30
within four years of these kits
being found in 2009,
being found in 2009,

這些採集包是在 2009 年
被發現，在四年之後，

07:34
Detroit would be the largest municipality
in the history of the United States

底特律就成了美國史上

We didn't know what we were going to do.
114

2136
我們不知道我們能怎麼辦。
07:43
But not only that.
115
451960

但不只是這樣。
當我們開始研究和調查

07:45
As we began to study and investigate
how this possibly could have happened,
how this possibly could have happened,
116
453200
4536
這怎麼可能發生的時候，
07:49
we discovered there were other issues
besides just financial ones.
besides just financial ones.
117
457760
3840
我們發現，除了財務問題之外
還有其他的問題。
還有其他的問題。
07:54
During the course of these decades
where these kits sat in that warehouse,
where these kits sat in that warehouse,
118
462880
5256
在這些採集包被放置
在倉庫的幾十年間，
在倉庫的幾十年間，
08:00
we discovered there had been
multiple changes of police leadership,
multiple changes of police leadership,
119
468160
4336
我們發現，警方的領導階層
經歷了多次改變，
經歷了多次改變，
08:04
with different priorities
and different agendas.
and different agendas.
120
472520
3256
每次都有不同的
優先順序和不同的議程。
優先順序和不同的議程。
08:07
There was woefully inadequate training
for sex crimes officers
for sex crimes officers
121
475800
4216
很令人遺憾的是，一般來說，
警局沒有幫性犯罪警員
做足夠的訓練。
做足夠的訓練。
08:12
in the police department in general.
122
480040
1800
08:14
They were chronically understaffed,
123
482640
3256
長期以來，警局一直人手不足，
08:17
and they had other resource issues.
124
485920
2176
它們還有其他的資源問題。
08:20
And there was perpetual victim blaming
125
488120
5256
且當受害者到警局報案時，
會有無止盡的責怪受害者現象。
08:25
when these victims came
to report their crimes.
to report their crimes.
126
493400
3536
08:28
That's the rape culture.
127
496960
1640
那就是強暴文化。
08:31
And because of this victim blaming
128
499360
2456
因為受到暴力侵害的人
還要承受這種責怪受害者的現象，
08:33
of someone that had been
violently assaulted,
violently assaulted,
129
501840
2456
08:36
some of these victim were even ridiculed
130
504320
2336
有些受害者甚至被嘲弄
08:38
into not continuing
to proceed with their case.
to proceed with their case.
131
506680
3080
而決定放棄他們的案件。
08:42
The bottom line is,
that 11,341 rape kits sat on that shelf.
that 11,341 rape kits sat on that shelf.
132
510600
5600
結果就是，有 11,341 個
採集包躺在架子上。
採集包躺在架子上。
08:50
I wanted transparency.
133
518440
1856
我想要有透明度。
08:52
I asked myself: How in the world
can we stop this from spreading?
can we stop this from spreading?
134
520320
5256
我問我自己：我們到底
要如何阻止這種狀況擴大？
要如何阻止這種狀況擴大？
08:57
I don't want to go through all this work
and five, 10 years down the line,
and five, 10 years down the line,
135
525600
3576
我不希望到了五年、十年之後
還發現我們在處理著同樣的問題。
09:01
figure we have the same issue.
136
529200
1440
09:03
At that time, police officers
had the sole discretion
had the sole discretion
137
531440
3656
那時，警員可以自行決定
09:07
about whether and when and if
138
535120
2616
他們是否要，以及何時
09:09
they were going to submit
the rape kits for testing --
the rape kits for testing --
139
537760
2576
將強暴證據採集包——轄區中的
任何強暴證據採集包——送檢。
任何強暴證據採集包——送檢。
09:12
any rape kit in their
jurisdiction -- for testing.
jurisdiction -- for testing.
140
540360
2376
這一點必須要改變。
09:14
That had to change.
141
542760
1216
09:16
We had to take that discretion
away from police officers,
away from police officers,
142
544000
2696
我們得要把這項裁量權
從警員身上收回，
從警員身上收回，
09:18
and pass state laws
143
546720
1616
並通過州法，
09:20
to ensure that every rape kit
released by the victim to law enforcement
released by the victim to law enforcement
144
548360
4696
來確保每一個受害者交給
執法單位的強暴證據採集包
執法單位的強暴證據採集包
09:25
is tested immediately.
145
553080
2280
都會立即被檢測。
09:28
I also knew that there had to be
some kind of system
some kind of system
146
556720
2456
我也知道，必須要有某種體制
09:31
to keep everybody honest and to keep
everybody accountable, put in place,
everybody accountable, put in place,
147
559200
4016
落實執行，讓每個人都誠實、都負責，
09:35
where we knew where these
rape kits were, at any given time.
rape kits were, at any given time.
148
563240
3520
讓我們在任何時候都知道
這些強暴證據採集包在哪裡。
這些強暴證據採集包在哪裡。
09:40
The answer was simple.
149
568280
1240
答案很簡單。
09:42
Think about all
of the hundreds of thousands
of the hundreds of thousands
150
570440
3776
想想看所有數十萬個
09:46
and perhaps millions of packages,
151
574240
2336
也許數百萬個包裹，
09:48
that are moved by
a logistics company every day.
a logistics company every day.
152
576600
2840
每天被物流公司運送。
09:53
They are scanned and tracked,
153
581320
2336
它們會被掃瞄和追蹤，
09:55
and they know where they are,
at every bend and turn,
at every bend and turn,
154
583680
2496
它們在路上的哪個
轉彎處都很清楚，
轉彎處都很清楚，
09:58
from the time that they're stored
in the warehouse,
in the warehouse,
155
586200
2416
從它們被存放在倉庫中開始，
到包裹抵達購買者家門口
為止，都一清二楚。
為止，都一清二楚。
10:00
until the time that that package arrives
on the purchaser's front steps.
on the purchaser's front steps.
156
588640
4720
10:06
Why couldn't we do that for rape kits?
157
594840
1840
為什麼強暴證據採集包不能這樣？
10:09
I had no desire to reinvent the wheel.
158
597600
3416
我沒有打算浪費大量的時間或精力
去重新創造已經存在的東西。
去重新創造已經存在的東西。
10:13
So I contacted UPS.
159
601040
1520
所以我聯絡了 UPS。
10:16
UPS, within two weeks -- two weeks --
160
604400
4616
UPS 在跟我們開會後的
兩個星期之內
兩個星期之內
10:21
of our first meeting with UPS,
161
609040
2376
——兩個星期——
10:23
they had come up with a major plan
162
611440
3096
他們就提出了一個大計畫，
10:26
where they involved
all the stakeholders --
all the stakeholders --
163
614560
2056
計畫中納入了所有利害關係人——
警員、檢察官、醫療機構、
警員、檢察官、醫療機構、
10:28
the police officers, the prosecutors,
the medical facilities,

164
616640
2896
法庭護士、醫院、
10:31
the forensic nurses, the hospitals,
165
619560
2296
10:33
the lab personnel
and the victim advocates,
and the victim advocates,
166
621880
2696
實驗室人員，以及受害者的律師，
10:36
could know where the rape kits were
at any given time.
at any given time.
167
624600
3080
他們都能隨時知道
強暴證據採集包的所在。
強暴證據採集包的所在。
10:40
They sent a team of experts out
168
628600
2416
他們派出了一個專家團隊，
10:43
and fanned the Detroit area,
talked to all the stakeholders
talked to all the stakeholders
169
631040
3016
用扇形方式走訪整個底特律地區，
和所有利害關係人談過，
和所有利害關係人談過，
10:46
and developed a plan,
170
634080
1616
開發出了一個計畫，
10:47
and studied the life of a rape kit,
171
635720
1696
並研究了強暴證據
採集包的生命過程，
採集包的生命過程，
10:49
from the time the rape kit was collected,
172
637440
2496
從採集包被收集起來，
10:51
through to the time
that it was tested in the lab
that it was tested in the lab
173
639960
2336
到被送到實驗室中檢測，
10:54
and returned to the police personnel.
174
642320
2256
再回到警方人員手中。
10:56
They also developed a web-based portal
175
644600
3176
他們也開發了一個網路入口網站，
10:59
that all the stakeholders could look into
and see where any given rape kit was
and see where any given rape kit was
176
647800
3696
讓所有的利害關係人可以隨時查詢
任何強暴證據採集包的所在。
11:03
at any given time.
177
651520
1776
11:05
UPS had the technology,
178
653320
1936
UPS 有技術，
11:07
UPS knew how to use that technology
to solve our problem,
to solve our problem,
179
655280
3056
UPS 知道如何用那技術
來解決我們的問題，
來解決我們的問題，
11:10
and we didn't.
180
658360
1440
而我們不知道。
11:13
We launched -- we, we --
181
661040
2456
我們推出了——我們，我們——
11:15
UPS and the prosecutor's office --
182
663520
2016
UPS 和檢察官辦公室——
11:17
(Laughter)
183
665560
1216
（笑聲）
11:18
launched this pilot program in Detroit.
184
666800
3040
在底特律推出了這個試驗性計畫。
11:22
And we started this process
on January 28, 2015,
on January 28, 2015,
185
670800
5776
2015 年 1 月 28 日，
我們開始了這個計畫流程，
11:28
through to May 25 of 2016.
186
676600
4456
一直到 2016 年 5 月 25 日。
11:33
And during that period of time --
187
681080
1616
在那段時間——
11:34
remember, we're not dealing
with the ones we found,
with the ones we found,
188
682720
2416
我們處理的不是我們找到的那些，
因為它們已被儲存了——
因為它們已被儲存了——
11:37
because they'd already been stored --
189
685160
1816
我們在處理的是新的採集包，
2015 年 1 月 28 日之後進來的。
2015 年 1 月 28 日之後進來的。
11:39
we're dealing with any new kit
that came in as of January 28, 2015.
that came in as of January 28, 2015.
190
687000
3696
11:42
And we knew where that rape kit was.
191
690720
2896
我們知道那些採集包在哪裡。
11:45
For the 16 months of this project,
we didn't lose a single rape kit.
we didn't lose a single rape kit.
192
693640
5696
在進行這個計畫的 16 個月中，
我們沒有弄丟任何一個
強暴證據採集包。
強暴證據採集包。
一個都沒掉。
我們知道每一個的所在。
我們知道每一個的所在。
11:51
Not a single one.
193
699360
1216
11:52
We knew where they all were.
194
700600
1456
11:54
(Applause)
195
702080
6416
（掌聲）
12:00
This project went on
until the state of Michigan,
until the state of Michigan,
196
708520
2896
這個計畫繼續進行，直到密西根州
12:03
the elected officials in state government,
197
711440
2456
州政府的民選官員
12:05
took notice of everything
that UPS was doing.
that UPS was doing.
198
713920
3096
注意到了 UPS 所做的一切。
12:09
And everything that my office was doing.
199
717040
1936
我的辦公室所做的一切。
12:11
And they decided that they
were going to use state funds
were going to use state funds
200
719000
3936
他們決定他們要用州資金
12:14
to develop a state-wide tracking system.
201
722960
2616
來開發全州的追蹤系統。
12:17
Not in just Detroit,
but state-wide tracking system.
but state-wide tracking system.
202
725600
2840
不只是在底特律，
而是全州的追蹤系統。
而是全州的追蹤系統。
12:21
Hopefully, that system
will be up and running soon.
will be up and running soon.
203
729520
2536
希望那個系統會盡快
推出並開始運作。
推出並開始運作。
12:24
But I loved working with UPS.
204
732080
2016
但我很愛和 UPS 合作。
12:26
I loved their innovation,
I loved how fast they worked,
I loved how fast they worked,
205
734120
3336
我愛他們的創新，
我愛他們的工作效率，

12:29
I loved their unorthodox approach to ideas
to solve an everyday, common problem,
to solve an everyday, common problem,
206
737480
4536
我愛他們用非正統方法來想出
點子，解決日常常見的問題，
點子，解決日常常見的問題，
12:34
whose solution should be simple.
207
742040
2280
這些問題的解決方案
應該是很簡單的。
應該是很簡單的。
12:38
So, after working with them
208
746760
2896
所以，在和他們合作之後，
12:41
I knew that even with one company,
209
749680
2496
我知道，即使只有一間公司，
12:44
working on one issue,
210
752200
1856
處理一個議題，
12:46
the progress that could be made.
211
754080
1720
還是可以有所進展。
12:49
We've been at this now for nine years.
212
757480
4280
我們已經做了九年了。
12:55
And it was nine years ago
213
763360
2776
九年前，
12:58
that we rescued those rape kits
from the warehouse.
from the warehouse.
214
766160
3560
我們從倉庫中救出了
那些強暴證據採集包。
那些強暴證據採集包。
13:02
That warehouse has since been torn down.
215
770880
2160
之後那間倉庫就被拆除了。
13:06
But all of the kits
have either been tested,
have either been tested,
216
774320
3216
但所有的採集包都已經被檢測，
13:09
or are in the final stages
of being tested.
of being tested.
217
777560
2040
或是已經在檢測的最後階段。
13:12
We still have a lot of work to do
218
780680
1696
就這些案件的調查和起訴方面，
13:14
in terms of investigation
and prosecution of those cases,
and prosecution of those cases,
219
782400
4216
我們還有很多要做的工作，
13:18
but our rape kit issue,
in terms of testing, is done.
in terms of testing, is done.
220
786640
4016
但我們的強暴證據採集包
檢測問題已經解決了。
檢測問題已經解決了。
13:22
As of June 28, 2018,
221
790680
3080
到 2018 年 6 月 28 日，
13:26
our CODIS hits have showed us
and identified 2,600 suspects.

We have identified 861 serial rapists.
223
801360
6760
我們比對出了
861 位連續強暴犯。
只是在這個計畫之內。那就表示，
13:40
Just within this project.
224
808800
1256
13:42
That means 861 potential defendants
225
810080
4456
有 861 個可能的被告人
13:46
that have raped within the project
two or more times.

13:56
In one city, in one state.
228
824840
2560
都在一個城市內，在一個州內。
14:01
Also, the CODIS results that we have
229
829160
3216
此外，我們得到的 CODIS 結果
14:04
have tentacles to crime scenes,

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Kym Worthy - ProsecutorKym Loren Worthy is the prosecutor of Wayne County, Michigan, home to Detroit.
Why you should listen
Kym Loren Worthy is the first African-American woman to serve as a county prosecutor in Michigan. She became internationally recognized for prosecuting then Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick at the beginning of March 2008.
Worthy started as an assistant prosecutor in the Wayne County Prosecutor's office in 1984. She served in this position for ten years, becoming the first African-American special assignment prosecutor under Prosecutor John O'Hair. Her most notable prosecution was the trial of Walter Budzyn and Larry Nevers in the beating death of Malice Green. Worthy had an over 90 percent conviction rate. From 1994 to January 2004, Worthy was a judge on the Wayne County Circuit Court Criminal Division. In 2004, Worthy was appointed by the judges of the Wayne County Circuit Court bench to replace Detroit mayor Mike Duggan, who had resigned to become the head of the Detroit Medical Center.
The Wayne County Prosecutor's Office is by far the busiest in Michigan. There are 83 counties in Michigan, but Worthy's office handles 52 percent of all felony cases in Michigan and 64 percent of all serious felony cases that go to jury trial. In 2013, Worthy sued Wayne County, alleging that Wayne County Executive Robert A. Ficano had provided her with an insufficient budget to fulfill her duties as outlined in the Michigan State Constitution. In June 2014, Worthy backed Warren Evans in his successful race to oust then Wayne County Executive Robert A. Ficano in the Democratic Primary.
Worthy is currently working on resolving a massive backlog of unprocessed rape test kits in Detroit. In 2009, one of her assistants discovered a stockpile of kits sitting in a warehouse that the Detroit Police Department had used as an overflow storage facility for evidence. Eventually, over 11,431 rape test kits -- some of which had been sitting unprocessed for a decade or more -- were discovered in the warehouse. In one case, a 2002 rape was linked to a man who was incarcerated for three murders he committed in the seven years after the rape. She is currently featured in the documentary produced by Mariska Hargitay, I Am Evidence.
