Subject: Re: 10-29-20 request for proper procedure info on how I can obtain a rape-evidence exam on myself
October 29, 2020
Dear Austin 311 Staff Member Niah,
Thank you for the referral (below) you offered me today to The Safe Alliance's Eloise House in south Austin for a forensic sexual-assault-evidence DNA-swabs medical exam on myself in the very near future.
As you may be aware, I am a self-identified victim of alleged continuous-and-continuing-daily-and-year-round sexual assault crimes and other alleged personal-injury-crimes allegedly being inflicted on me on a daily and year-round basis by alleged home-invasion-crimes perpetrators unbeknownst to me during my sleeping hours at nighttime as I lie alone on my own bed, asleep and unconscious and probably also snoring, inside my always-bolt-locked current solo-occupancy apartment unit in northeast Austin.
The link to a webpage for The Safe Alliance that you kindly shared with me today contains the following factual statement from that non-profit organization based in Austin: "SAFE’s Eloise House clinic provides 24/7 free sexual assault forensic exams and medical care." The other link you offered me was to the Attorney General of Texas state-agency website.
I did not see any reference in either link you provided me today to any option in which I as a complainant and crime victim can obtain a forensic rape-evidence medical exam on myself by a certified forensic nurse inside a hospital in Austin.
Niah, do you have any reason to believe that it is no longer possible for me (or any other self-identified rape victims in Austin, for that matter) to obtain a forensic rape-evidence exam on myself (or on themselves, in the case of those respective individuals) inside a local hospital such as the highly-rated and high-integrity Seton Medical Center in central Austin?
If the local-hospital-visit forensic-medical-exam option has in fact been discontinued by the City Government of Austin, do you know which vote of the Austin City Council---or which public-policy action by a City of Austin official, such as Austin Mayor Steve Adler, Austin City Manager Spencer Cronk, Austin Assistant City Manager for Public Safety Rey Arellano, Austin Police Chief Brian Manley, or APD Sex Crimes Unit head administrator Sergeant Sandra Benningfield----has possibly terminated the option for self-identified rape victims in Austin of their obtaining a forensic rape-evidence exam on themselves inside a hospital in Austin?
Thank you in advance, Niah, for your very helpful reply letter to me on these two follow-up questions.
Sincerely and Best Wishes,
John Kevin McMillan, longstanding criminal-law complainant with the Austin Police Department in APD Sex Crimes Case 16-1340923 and other alleged-sex-crimes-and-personal-injury-crimes cases here in this state-capital city for Texas.
My solo-occupancy efficiency-apartment-unit rental-home address ever since June 21, 2019:
