  What will the nurse tell the patient? 1. I understand why you felt dirty, but you know you should not have taken a shower..
  2. We will probably never find out who raped you, since you destroyed evidence..
  3. Do you want an emergency contraceptive pill?
  4. I understand that was important to you. We will see what we can get from your clothes, and give them to the authorities..
