Get raped, pay a 3000$ “convenience fee” . Then the police will either never process the kit or process it and put you in a dna database to be used against you.

  Might I suggest you kill the stronger person forcing you to be raped in their sleep to escape and then having to pay $150000 to their estate. https://www.cbs58.com/news/iowa-teen-ordered-to-pay-her-alleged-rapists-family-150-000-is-not-the-first-sex-trafficking-victim-penalized-for-killing-their-alleged-assaulter https://www.cbs58.com/news/iowa-teen-ordered-to-pay-her-alle...

      This strikes me as bizarre: > A crowdsourcing campaign to cover the restitution has raised $330,000 -- more than double what Lewis owes. But Lewis' attorneys must determine whether Iowa law would allow the donated money to be used to pay the restitution If I owe someone $150,000 and I have $330,000, how exactly can I be prevented from using it to pay? Even if you prevent me from using it, why can’t I buy a $300k house in cash and then take a $150k mortgage? Sell the house three months later.

        https://www.legis.iowa.gov/docs/code/910.3B.pdf https://www.legis.iowa.gov/docs/code/910.3B.pdf Perhaps there is a concern that the croudfunds could be considered a third party payment under subsection 4. The only explanation that I can think of for the subsection was to prevent a defendant from claiming that a source like the decedent's own life insurance should be counted against the restitution, but that seems a bit far fetched.
