You Arrive on the Scene of an Alleged Rape

You arrive on the scene of an alleged rape. A 25-year-old female has been physically assaulted quite badly and has numerous deep lacerations. You must remove her clothes in order to provide care. What is the best procedure when caring for this patient?

A) Remove the patient's clothes quickly, and place them in a biohazard bag.
B) Cut around the injury sites and leave the rest of the clothes on the patient.
C) Carefully remove her clothing in a private area, cover her with blankets, and bag the clothes in a paper bag to give to the police as evidence.
D) Cut off her clothes quickly; patient care takes priority over evidence.
