"Prior sexual history of the victim would not be allowable in California courts."
Even if the evidence might refute the rape kit analysis? I have to doubt that. If she had rough sex immediately prior to the party that would have to be admissible (not to prove she's a slut that's a given) but to prove someone else could have caused the "trauma consistent with rape".

"Prior sexual history of the victim would not be allowable in California courts." I think "Prior sexual history" refers to years gone by. Not ten minutes ago.

the defense would have the right to have the whole report about the DNA read into the record.....if the DA wants to hang on DNA, then he'll hang.....
