Joe Biden

Mr. President, I am very pleased that this bill will soon become law. I commend my cosponsor, Senator Hatch, and I also commend Representative Conyers, who championed this bill over in the House, and with whom I was proud to work on it.

Joe Biden

A few months ago, the first circuit court of appeals made a mistake. It made, in my view, a very big mistake: It said that the term "serious bodily injury" in one of our Federal statutes does not include rape.

Let me tell you about the case. One night near midnight, a woman went to her car after work. While she was getting something out of the back seat, a man with a knife came up from behind and forced her back into the car. He drove her to a remote beach, ordered her to take off her clothes, and made her squat down on her hands and knees.

Then he raped her. After the rape, he drove off in her car, leaving her alone on the side of the road.

The man was convicted under the Federal carjacking statute. That statute provides for an enhanced sentence of up to 25 years if the defendant inflicts "serious bodily injury" in the course of a carjacking.

When it got time to sentence the defendant, the prosecutor asked the court to enhance the sentence because of the rape. Mind you, there was no dispute that the defendant had, in fact, raped the victim.

The trial judge agreed with the prosecutor, and gave the defendant the statutory 25 years maximum, finding that the rape constituted "serious bodily injury." But when the case went up to the first circuit, that court said "no" -- rape is not serious bodily injury. To support its ruling, and I'm now quoting the opinion, the court said that "There was no evidence of any cuts or bruises in her vaginal area." That, in my view, is absolutely outrageous -- and Senator Hatch and I proposed this bill to set matters straight.

Under the code, "serious bodily injury" has several definitions. It includes: a substantial risk of death; protracted and obvious disfigurement; protracted loss or impairment of a bodily part or mental faculty; and it also includes extreme physical pain.

It takes no great leap of logic to see that a rape involves extreme physical pain. and I would go so far as to say that only a panel of male judges could fail to make that leap and even think -- let alone rule -- that rape does not involve extreme pain.

Rape is one of the most brutal and serious crimes any woman can experience. It is a violation of the first order, but it has all too often been treated like a second class crime. According to a report I issued a few years ago, a robber is 30 percent more likely to be convicted than a rapist; a rape prosecution is more than twice as likely as a murder prosecution to be dismissed; a convicted rapist is 50 percent more likely to receive probation than a convicted robber.

No crime carries a perfect record of arrest, prosecution, and incarceration -- but the record for rape is especially wanting.

And this first circuit decision helps explain why: too often, our criminal justice system just doesn't get it.

If the first circuit decision were allowed to stand, it would mean that a criminal would spend more time behind bars for breaking a man's arm than for raping a woman.

For 5 long years, I worked to pass a piece of legislation that I have cared about like no other: The Violence Against Women Act. The act does a great many practical things:

It funds more police and prosecutors specially trained and devoted to combating rape and family violence; It trains police, prosecutors, and judges in the ways of rape and family violence -- so they can better understand and respond to the problem; It provides shelters for more than 60,000 battered women and their children; It provides extra lighting and emergency phones in subways, bus stops, and parks; It provides for more rape crises centers; It set up a national hotline that battered women can call around the clock -- to get advice and counseling when they are in the throes of a crisis; And we're getting rape education efforts going with our young people -- so we can break the cycle of violence before it gets started.

But the Violence Against Women Act also meant to do something else, beyond these concrete measures: it also sent a clarion call across our land that crimes against women will no longer be treated as second class crimes.

For too long, the victims of these crimes have been seen not as innocent targets of brutality, but as participants who somehow bear shame or even some responsibility for the violence.

This is especially true when it comes to victims who know their assailants. For too long, we have been quick to call theirs a private misfortune rather than a public disgrace. We have viewed the crime as less than criminal, the abuser less than culpable, and the victim less than worthy of justice.

And we need to make sure -- right now -- that no judge ever misreads the carjacking statute again. With this bill, we are telling them that we intend, that we always intended, for those words "serious bodily injury" to mean rape -- no if's, and's or but's.
