Wisconsin Department Of Justice:  300 Rape Cases Delayed By Untested Evidence Kits

A report from the Wisconsin Department of Justice finds nearly 350 active rape cases were delayed by untested rape kits.  D-N-A testing was only done on 56-hundred of 86-hundred cases last year.  Although private laboratories perform the tests, all results are reviewed by D-N-A analysts with the state lab.  One reason for the delays is the number of cases in 2018 was more than 60 percent higher than the year before.
