French
authorities have recently demanded 527 DNA Tests composed of both male students
and faculty members as young as 14 years of age at the Fenelon-Notre Dame high
school in western France. The reason they are demanding these DNA tests is
because a girl was recently raped, September 30th 2014, on the
campus of the high school. The investigators are exercising all of their
resources attempting to identify the rapist of the young girl. The rape took
place in a badly lit washroom inside the school. The authorities have not yet
found the rapist, but they are confident they will soon as long as all DNA
tests are submitted.
I think
that while slightly inconvenient, it is extremely important and very good of
the authorities to demand these DNA tests and do all they can to catch this
rapist. This is an extremely serious offense and no one should get away with
committing such a crime. Also the school should install cameras near most of
these washrooms, not inside of course, but definitely near the entrances to
ensure they are able to catch the rapist by simply viewing the camera footage
next time, instead of forcing the whole school to go through DNA testing. For
the sake of the young girl, I genuinely hope that this rapist is found and
dealt a very harsh punishment for his crime, and that he doesn't just get off
with a slap on the wrist as these offenders have been known to get away with.
