It might sound like a good idea, but experts oppose it because the survivor may be in shock and still processing the event. This can increase the chance of the case being dropped and lead to worse outcomes.22 Sep 2026 07:20 +0000at://did:plc:mqnili7dbp2hvdnhtmckkhdw/app.bsky.feed.post/3mw3oszx2ec2khttps://bsky.app/profile/anticopofficial.bsky.social/post/3mvts5mnwl22vNSW Police continue to raid Oxford St with drug dogs, subjecting queer people to invasive searches.
