Researchers working out of Tel Aviv University have developed a small device that can be used to detect two of the most common types of drugs used to sedate women to make them vulnerable to being raped. Professor Fernando Patolsky and Doctor Michael Ioffe, the key scientists working on the detector, in an interview with AFP (an international news wire) report that the device is small enough to be used discreetly by women in social settings and has so far had a 100% accuracy rate in detecting the date-rape drugs in tests they've conducted in their lab.
Why a Date-Rape Drug Detector is Needed
In the past several years, drugs have come on the black market that can easily be slipped into a drink without the owner being aware of what's happened. The drugs cannot be tasted and cause the person who consumes them to become very drowsy and incoherent, making them vulnerable to sexual assault. In many cases, the drugs also cause the victim to forget what has happened if lucid enough during the encounter to understand what has happened to them.
