          Abstract

          La Oficina de Naciones Unidas contra la Droga y el Delito (UNODC) en 2011 señala que "El delito facilitado por drogas (DFD) es una expresión general que abarca la violación y otras agresiones sexuales, el robo con violencia o intimidación, la extorsión de dinero y los malos tratos deliberados de ancianos o niños bajo la influencia de sustancias sicotrópicas". En este trabajo se validó un método cualitativo y rápido a partir de muestras de orina por LC/MS/MS para 39 compuestos comprendidos en los listados de sumisión química. El objetivo fue alcanzar un límite de detección un 50 % por debajo de la concentración propuesta como "Límites mínimos de funcionamiento exigidos (MRPL)" por la UNODC, para poder ser aplicado a muestras reales.

          Translated abstract

          The United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) in 2011, states that "The Drug-facilitated crime (DFC) is a general term that includes rape or other sexual assault, robbery, money extortion, as well as the deliberate maltreatment of the elderly or children under the influence of psychotropic substances". In this work we validated a qualitative and fast method from urine samples by LC/MS/MS for 39 compounds included in the Drug-facilitated crime lists. The aim was to reach a detection limit of 50% below the proposed concentration as "minimum required performance limits (MRPL)" by UNODC in order to be applied in real samples.

          Chemical submission: results of 4-year French inquiry.

          Psychoactive substances may be administered without the knowledge of a victim in order to induce incapacitation and thus facilitate criminal actions. The characteristics of the victims and the drugs used in such suspected chemical submissions (CS) were analyzed in 309 cases collected from October 2003 to December 2007 through a national survey. Out of 309 cases, 158 met all criteria of CS. The victims were mostly female (n = 89, 56%). The type of aggression was mostly sexual assault (in 79 cases 50%). Benzodiazepines and related drugs were detected in 129 victims (82%) and were mostly clonazepam, zolpidem, and bromazepam whereas flunitrazepam and gamma hydroxybutyrate, well known for their use in CS, were identified in 11 (7%) and five (3%) of the 158 victims. CS is not an anecdotal phenomenon in France. Information for health professionals and workers in forensic structures as well as education of the general population associated with preventive measures such as drug dosage form changes should contribute to improved care management of victims and decreased risk.

              Toxicological analysis of blood and urine samples from female victims of alleged sexual assault.

              The toxicological analysis of blood and urine samples from victims of alleged sexual assault represents a crucial part of the forensic evidence when this crime is investigated.
