SACRAMENTO, May 5  The Assembly Public Safety Committee has approved
(Tuesday) legislation that excludes a victim's manner of dress in the
trials of accused rapists. The bill
says the style or length of a victim's dress or skirt is irrelevant
should the defendant try to use it as
evidence showing she invited a sexual act. Assemblyman Scott Wildman,
D-Burbank, said his bill
expands present law that already excludes evidence about the reputation
or past sexual conduct of a
rape victim.
