For decades, hundreds of thousands of rape kits sat ignored in warehouses and evidence rooms around the country. As a result, a lot of sex offenders – many of them serial rapists – were never caught. They’re still out there, free to assault more women.
Untested, an exclusive true crime podcast series from WITNESS and USA TODAY, brings listeners along on a Michigan detective’s quest as she works to bring one of these men to justice.
All episodes available ad-free to subscribers on Apple Podcasts and Spotify on May 6.
