These drugs can render victims physically and mentally helpless, and can cause victims to not remember anything that happened. These drugs often have no color, smell, or taste and are easily added to flavored drinks without the victim's knowledge. <br /> There are at least three date rape drugs: GHB (gamma hydroxybutyric acid), Rohypnol (flunitrazepam),&nbsp;Ketamine (ketamine hydrochloride).&nbsp; <br /> </font> Date Rape FAQs Thu, 16 Oct 2008 18:46:18 GMT http://resources.lawinfo.com/en/Legal-FAQs/Date-Rape/Federal/is-alcohol-considered-a-date-rape-drug.html <font face="Arial">While GHB, Rohypnol, and Ketamine are considered &ldquo;date rape drugs,&rdquo; alcohol can also have the same effects that impair judgment, cause involuntary black-outs and memory loss, and affect behavior&mdash;putting a person at risk for unwanted sexual activity. </font> Date Rape FAQs Thu, 16 Oct 2008 18:47:01 GMT http://resources.lawinfo.com/en/Legal-FAQs/Date-Rape/Federal/what-should-i-do-if-i-believe-that-i-have-bee.html <font face="Arial">If you believe that you have been the victim of date rape, you should: <br /> &bull;&nbsp;Go to the police station or hospital immediately. <br /> &bull;&nbsp;If you believe you were drugged, get a urine test as soon as possible, as &ldquo;date rape&rdquo; drugs can leave your system quickly. GHB leaves the body in 12 hours. Rohypnol only stays in the body for several hours, but can be detected in urine up to 72 hours after taking it.<br /> &bull;&nbsp;Don't douche, bathe, or change clothes before getting help. These things may give evidence of the rape. <br /> &bull;&nbsp;You also can call a crisis center or a hotline to talk with a counselor. The National Sexual Assault Hotline can be reached at 1-800-656-HOPE. <br /> </font> Date Rape FAQs Thu, 16 Oct 2008 18:47:42 GMT http://resources.lawinfo.com/en/Legal-FAQs/Date-Rape/Federal/what-if-i-ve-been-wrongly-accused-of-date-rap.html <p><font face="Arial"><font face="Arial">Unfortunately, false reports of date rape are made.&nbsp; While the motivation for lying and falsely accusing someone of rape could of course be wildly diverse, false accusations often stem from a desire to seek revenge on the accused or from the alleged victim's desire to cover-up their own sexual activity.&nbsp; There are penalties in place under various state laws for falsely reporting that a rape occurred.&nbsp; However, since a conviction for date rape can result in serious penalties, it is extremely important to consult qualified legal counsel if you have been falsely accused.&nbsp; An attorney can not only help protect your legal rights, but may also be able to help manage the damage to your reputation that is involved in such cases. </font></font></p> Date Rape FAQs Thu, 16 Oct 2008 19:02:56 GMT http://resources.lawinfo.com/en/Legal-FAQs/Appeals/index.html Free Appeal FAQs Criminal Law Sub-categories Sat, 28 Nov 2009 20:49:32 GMT http://resources.lawinfo.com/en/Legal-FAQs/Arraignment/index.html Free Arraignment FAQs Criminal Law Sub-categories Sat, 28 Nov 2009 20:49:32 GMT http://resources.lawinfo.com/en/Legal-FAQs/Arrest-Information-Lawyers/index.html Free Arrest Information FAQs Criminal Law Sub-categories Sat, 28 Nov 2009 20:49:32 GMT http://resources.lawinfo.com/en/Legal-FAQs/Bail-Hearings-Criminal/index.html Free Bail Hearings & Criminal FAQs Criminal Law Sub-categories Sat, 28 Nov 2009 20:49:32 GMT http://resources.lawinfo.com/en/Legal-FAQs/Civil-Versus-Criminal-Law/index.html Free Civil Versus Criminal Law FAQs Criminal Law Sub-categories Sat, 28 Nov 2009 20:49:32 GMT http://resources.lawinfo.com/en/Legal-FAQs/Criminal-Justice-Process-Lawyers/index.html Free Criminal Justice Process FAQs Criminal Law Sub-categories Sat, 28 Nov 2009 20:49:32 GMT http://resources.lawinfo.com/en/Legal-FAQs/Criminal-Trial/index.html Free Criminal Trial FAQs Criminal Law Sub-categories Sat, 28 Nov 2009 20:49:32 GMT http://resources.lawinfo.com/en/Legal-FAQs/Expungement-Lawyers-Executive-Clemency-Info/index.html Free Expungement FAQs Criminal Law Sub-categories Sat, 28 Nov 2009 20:49:32 GMT http://resources.lawinfo.com/en/Legal-FAQs/Grand-Jury-Indictment-Lawyers/index.html Free Grand Jury Indictment FAQs Criminal Law Sub-categories Sat, 28 Nov 2009 20:49:32 GMT http://resources.lawinfo.com/en/Legal-FAQs/Hiring-a-Lawyer/index.html Free Hiring a Lawyer FAQs Criminal Law Sub-categories Sat, 28 Nov 2009 20:49:32 GMT http://resources.lawinfo.com/en/Legal-FAQs/Legal-Basics/index.html Free Legal Basics FAQs Criminal Law Sub-categories Sat, 28 Nov 2009 20:49:32 GMT http://resources.lawinfo.com/en/Legal-FAQs/Miranda-warnings/index.html Free Miranda warnings FAQs Criminal Law Sub-categories Sat, 28 Nov 2009 20:49:32 GMT http://resources.lawinfo.com/en/Legal-FAQs/Plea-Negotiations-Criminal-Lawyer/index.html Free Plea Negotiations FAQs Criminal Law Sub-categories Sat, 28 Nov 2009 20:49:32 GMT http://resources.lawinfo.com/en/Legal-FAQs/Sentencing-and-Sanctions/index.html Free Sentencing and Sanctions FAQs Criminal Law Sub-categories Sat, 28 Nov 2009 20:49:32 GMT http://resources.lawinfo.com/en/Legal-FAQs/The-4th-Amendment-and-Search-Warrants/index.html Free The 4th Amendment and Search Warrants FAQs Criminal Law Sub-categories Sat, 28 Nov 2009 20:49:32 GMT
