VIRGINIA BEACH

In August 1986, two girls got their truck stuck in the mud.

They walked from the spot near North Witchduck Road to an apartment complex for help but found none. Instead, on their way back, they were gang-raped.

Later they would tell police how three young men dragged them into the woods and forced them into vaginal, anal and oral sex, according to court documents. Officers collected evidence from the girls and searched for their attackers for nearly a year, but they came up empty.

That was then.

Today, advancements in DNA testing have prompted Virginia Beach police to systematically examine cold rape cases and resubmit evidence for testing with the latest methods. Their efforts are paying off: So far this year, 35 cases from the 1980s have been sent to Virginia's Department of Forensic Science, and nine have matched profiles in the state's DNA database.

One of them is the 1986 rape. Clarence Carvell Speller, 50, of Portsmouth and Charles Williams Jr., 49, of Virginia Beach are now charged with rape and forcible sodomy.

In August, Andrew S. Tarantole of Gloucester was charged in a 1985 rape, and in June, Darryl Anthony Babb, 62, was indicted on counts of rape and forcible sodomy in a 1984 case in Virginia Beach.

"It's exciting when you get hits," said Beth Dunton, forensics supervisor for Virginia Beach police. "To know these people have gone so many years without justice, it breaks your heart."

DNA testing advances help Beach police solve rapes

New South Wales police are collecting DNA samples from thousands of criminals with spent convictions to help solve cold cases and future crimes.

Police are planning to take a further 2,000 samples over the next 12 months, adding to 1,000 already collected, to build a comprehensive DNA database.

Civil liberties advocates have criticised the program for casting too wide a net and taking samples from people who were, in many cases, rehabilitated.

David Porter from the Redfern Legal Centre, a state-wide service, said there had been a dramatic increase in the use of the practice throughout the year and public resources were being wasted.

"These are people who aren't under suspicion of any crime," he said.

"The police are taking the time to seek their DNA, we are taking our time to advise them in relation to it, the police are taking further time to lodge an application with the local court, the local court is taking time to hear that application.

"I'm not sure what evil it is addressing."

Officers have had the power to request DNA samples from past offenders for seven years, but the practice has been relatively rare until recently, when it was made a priority.

Under the program police can visit the homes of past offenders to request a DNA sample if they meet specific criteria.

The offenders must have served prison time for a crime that has a maximum sentence of more than five years and have been charged with a further offence, although not necessarily convicted.
