According to the National Academy of Sciences, 20% of women who consume alcohol continue to do so during pregnancy.
Excessive alcohol use is commonly involved in sexual assault. Impaired judgment caused by alcohol may worsen the tendency of some men to mistake a womens friendly behavior for sexual interest and misjudge their use of force. Also, alcohol use by men increases the chances of engaging in risky sexual activity including unprotected sex, sex with multiple partners, or sex with a partner at risk for sexually transmitted diseases.
In 1998, approximately 38% of the estimated 5.3 million convicted offenders under the jurisdiction of corrections agencies were consuming alcohol at the time of the offense.
Blood alcohol tests under normal circumstances are generally reported to be quite accurate, although some conditions, such as putrefaction (fermentation of body tissues after death), dilution of blood by emergency survival methods (such as intravenous fluids), and extreme blood loss, may affect these results.
