Abstract

Introduction

The use of psychoactive drugs to facilitate sexual assault has acquired great relevance in recent years. The objective of this work is to help make this type of situation visible, establishing diagnostic criteria and thus being able to determine the real incidence of this type of crime.

Materials and methods

In order to determine the frequency and characteristics of victims of sexual assault with suspected chemical submission (SSQ), a retrospective descriptive study of sexual assaults facilitated by psychoactive substances has been carried out at the Institute of Legal Medicine and Forensic Sciences of Alicante in the years 2016-2020.

Results

Among 702 cases studied, 95 (13.5%) met the criteria for inclusion in the probable DFSA (drug-facilitated sexual assault) group.

The profile of the victim was a woman (95.4%) around 24 years old. In most cases, the sexual violence was committed by a single male aggressor, recently met or known by the victim, and generally these events happen on weekends. The victim had voluntarily consumed alcohol, drugs or psychotropic drugs immediately before the events in most cases (88,5%). This vulnerable state of the victim was used by the aggressor to sexually assault her (opportunistic DFSA). The toxicological analyses performed on blood and/or urine were positive in 85.3%. In almost half of them (46.3%), there was more than one substance found in the toxicological analyses. The most frequent substance found were: alcohol (54.7%), cannabinoids (37,9%), benzodiazepines (22.1%), cocaine (15.8%) and ecstasy or MDMA (8.4%).

In half of the cases (50.5%), unexpected positive toxicological findings were obtained for psychoactive substances that the victim did not admit to having consumed voluntarily.

2016-2020年西班牙阿利坎特省性暴力受害者中精神活性物质的存在
近年来,使用精神活性药物为性侵犯提供便利已成为一个重要问题。这项工作的目的是帮助人们看到这类情况,建立诊断标准,从而能够确定这类犯罪的真实发生率。材料和方法为了确定疑似化学物质性侵犯(SSQ)受害者的频率和特征,阿利坎特法律医学和法医科学研究所在2016-2020年对精神活性物质促成的性侵犯进行了回顾性描述性研究,95人(13.5%)符合纳入可能的DFSA(药物性侵犯)组的标准。受害者是一名24岁左右的女性(95.4%)。在大多数情况下,性暴力是由受害者最近遇到或认识的一名男性施暴者实施的,这些事件通常发生在周末。在大多数情况下,受害者在事件发生前自愿饮酒、吸毒或服用精神药物(88.5%)。受害者的这种脆弱状态被施暴者用来对她进行性侵犯(机会主义DFSA)。对血液和/或尿液进行的毒理学分析阳性率为85.3%。在其中几乎一半(46.3%)的血液和(或)尿液中,在毒理学分析中发现了一种以上的物质。最常见的物质是:酒精(54.7%)、大麻素(37.9%)、苯二氮卓类药物(22.1%)、可卡因(15.8%)和摇头丸或摇头丸(8.4%)。在一半的病例(50.5%)中,受害者不承认自愿食用的精神活性物质获得了意想不到的阳性毒理学结果。
