WORDS OF WISDOM FROM A
POLICE DETECTIVE ABOUT SEXUAL ASSAULT
1. Getting into the attacker's car when he
pulls a gun and orders you to get into his
vehicle.
Most attackers don't want to shoot you ... they
want you to get into the car so that they can
drive you to a deserted place and torture you.
Don't comply. Run screaming. It is MUCH more
likely than not that he will just move on to an
easier target.
2. Pulling over when a man drives alongside
of you pointing at your car pretending something
is wrong.
3. Not locking your doors while driving.
4. Opening your front door when you have not
positively identified who is there.
5. Not being alert in parking lots.
6. Trusting a clean cut, honest looking
stranger.
7. Trusting people to be alone with your
children.
