October 09, 2025 / 00:46

This episode discusses the controversial decision to order a sexual assault kit in the investigation of Steven's death, which was initially classified as a hit and run. The conversation highlights the unusual nature of this decision, with a highway patrol officer noting he had never encountered such a procedure in traffic accident cases.

The discussion raises questions about the coroner's actions, particularly since the coroner who ordered the kit is no longer in office. The autopsy did not indicate any abnormalities that would warrant a sexual assault kit, leading to further scrutiny of the investigation.

Listeners are left wondering about the results of the kit, as the records have been sealed and it remains unclear whether the kit was ever tested.

But what makes me like double take is that a sexual assault kit was ordered in Steven's death by a coroner without
00:00:08
consulting investigators, >> which is that normal for a supposed hit and run that you're investigating as a
00:00:16
hit and run? >> One of the highway patrol officers who responded the night said that he had
00:00:20
never seen anything like that done before in any traffic accidents that like he was aware of. And like the
00:00:25
autopsy didn't note anything abnormal that would like prompt a sexual assault kit. And what's so interesting is like
00:00:32
the coroner who performed it is no longer in office. And because the records have been sealed, I don't know
00:00:38
the results of the kit, if there were any. I mean, it's not even clear. >> They collected a kit. Was the kit
00:00:43
actually tested?
