His office became aware that the SFPD had used DNA it collected from a woman years ago as part of a rape kit exam to connect her to a recent felony property crime. Boudin expressed concerns that the practice could dissuade sexual assault survivors from coming forward.Every DA I've spoken to in the country--far and wide, red and blue--has absolutely been horrified at this practice. It never should have happened.
