General Tips for Preserving Evidence:
- Do not alter, dispose of or destroy any physical evidence.
- If there is suspicion that a drink may have been drugged, inform a medical assistance provider and/or law enforcement as soon as possible so they can attempt to collect potential evidence (e.g., from the drink, through urine or blood sample).
- Preserve evidence of electronic communications by saving them and/or by taking screenshots of text messages, instant messages, social networking pages or other electronic communications, and by keeping pictures, logs or copies of documents that relate to the incident and/or respondent.
- Even if someone chooses not to make a complaint regarding sexual misconduct, they should nevertheless consider speaking with law enforcement to preserve evidence in the event that they change their mind at a later date.
Preserving Evidence Related to Sexual Assault:
- Do not change out of the clothing you were wearing at the time of your assault. If you must change, place your old clothes in a paper bag and do not wash it.
- Pack a change of clothes to bring to University Health Service or local hospital.
- Do not shower, bathe, brush teeth, eat, drink or change bedding before going to the hospital or seeking medical attention.
