Gov. Matt Bevin's comments came during a radio interview that focused mainly on the case of Micah Schoettle.
Bevin's comments came during a radio interview that focused mainly on the case of Micah Schoettle, 41.
Bevin’s claim is flatly incorrect, Dr. George Nichols, who was Kentucky’s chief medical examiner for 20 years and later started the child abuse evaluation system at Kosair Children’s Hospital, told The Courier Journal.“Rape is not proved by hymen penetration,” Nichols said. “Rape is proved by phallic penetration ... where the vaginal lips meet the outer surface of the vagina.
Kenton County Commonwealth’s Attorney Rob Sanders, who prosecuted the 2018 case against Schoettle and has called for an investigation into Bevin’s pardon, criticized the former governor’s comments by saying he “is ignorant of the medicine and science in child rape cases.”
