This is a legislative failure for all women in our state! As your representative, I will be like a bulldog to ensure female crime victims are given proper attention and their cases dealt with in an expedient and dignified manner. What you see below is completely unacceptable.

"That commitment stands in contrast to South Carolina, where the extent of its backlog remains unknown, a mandate from state lawmakers to begin tracking the kits is delayed and no requirements are in place to test the potentially vital pieces of evidence.
