5 DNA kits meant for DPS found underneath mailbox in Southeast Austin (mailed from San Antonio, TX)

AUSTIN, Texas — DNA kits that were supposed to be heading to a Texas Department of Public Safety crime lab from San Antonio ended up in the Texas sun under a mailbox. Clint Hudler contacted KVUE Thursday, saying he was walking to get his mail when his four-year-old daughter found five DNA test kits inside a mail carrier box underneath the community mailboxes... According to Austin police, officers came and collected the kits and took them directly to DPS. "Anyone could grab it, anyone could tamper with it. Anyone could take one dispose of it," Hudler said. "I mean, so many things could possibly happen with it ... a child could get it." Hudler said a post office worker came Friday and told him the kits were left as outgoing mail. But he said that doesn't quite add up. "The fact that it had a return label from San Antonio, I believe it was [a] District II parole board, it just kinda caught me off guard that they're saying it was sent from here," Hudler said.

Austin and San Antonio have thousands of old rape kits just sitting around decaying. There’s been a push to get them processed but, well, its government work. Too bad of others are getting raped and murdered in the meantime.

Arpaio was the sheriff in Maricopa County when the build up occurred. I know. I live in Maricopa County.

Arpaio also didn’t staff enough investigators for child sexual molestation charges either.

There are tons of links by reputable reporting agencies about Arpaio’s failures.

At this link they even have Arpaio agreeing he didn’t do his job.

Wonder how many bi state rapist in Arizona and California could be identified if those kits were processed.

Thanks for your feedback re unprocessed DNA rape ID kits.

Where the hell are the women libers including the ones in Congress and as state legislators when this is a multi state practice, not just one state?

Where is, “Impeach Him Pelosi”. Apparently, one of her daughters has been briefed on this problem in California.

Hypocrites are dam selective about their "support" for women.

Arpaio is not the hero that Trump and the rest of the Country think he is.

Thank God. I’m just saying it just wasn’t Democratic law enforcement officials who failed to act. Maricopa County is the second biggest geographical land mass county in the Country and Phoenix is the fifth most populated city in the USA. It was Republicans, like Arpaio, who failed to do their jobs as well.

“They’re too busy bowing down to the god of abortion.
And blaming their empty lives on “toxic masculinity”.

Yeah, why lock up rapists who rape and harm women, when Abortion is available 24/7.
