A woman who told police she had been raped was taken to jail because of an outstanding warrant and denied use of a morning-after pill to prevent a potential pregnancy.

The 21-year-old woman told police she was grabbed by a man and raped on 27th afternoon after she left a parade. The incident occurred in Tampa, a city on the west coast of Florida.

The woman’s attorney told reporters that while she was in jail she was prevented from taking an emergency contraceptive, the so-called morning after pill.

The sheriff’s office, which runs the jail, said in a statement that it is investigating the complaint and declined to comment further.

So this is how the policemen are carrying out their social responsibilities. A woman who is grief stricken because of some evil incarnated people and look what she gets in return, people who are suppose to safeguard the interests are further exploiting the victim. What a shame!
