That may be happening. Since 1998, the Criminal Law Amendment Act began providing for more severe punishments for rape, including life sentences for gang rapists. Furthermore, FBI officials from the U.S. are training investigators and prosecutors who will be working in 20 courts devoted to trying sex crimes. These are scheduled to open in April 2000. Meanwhile, Smith refuses to give in to depression. The rapist, she says, "cannot imprison my mind. I have the power." She maintains that "God sent me this challenge. I have to turn this evil into good, and that is why I am speaking...
