If anyone expresses disbelief that a man would go to insane lengths to get away with sexually abusing women, please let them know about John Schneeberger.
In 1992, he drugged a 23-year-old patient, a woman who had gone to him before and whose baby he delivered, and raped her. The victim, known as Candice/Candy, remembered the assault and that he was the one who did it, and she reported it to the police.
Of course, everyone thought she was crazy. Whose side would you take: a respected small town doctor or a young single mother?
When the police took his blood, it didn't match the semen taken from her rape kit. She was adamant this was the man and asked for a re-test. A year later, they took blood again, this time with police observing. The blood didn't match the rape kit. The police closed the case.
Candice/Candy didn't let up and hired a private investigator who did an extremely illegal thing by breaking into Schneeberger's car, stealing some chapstick presumably used by Schneeberger, and testing the DNA. That DNA from the chapstick matched her rape kit.
Due to the illegal seizure, the positive results didn't mean shit, but Candice/Candy brought a civil case against Schneeberger. He agreed to another test, this time the entire thing was videotaped by police. Initially, they asked to take the sample from his fingers. He asked if it could be done from his arm instead, due to some disease that made his fingers swell.
During the video, the examiner tries multiple times to get a sample from his arm. While she's prepping the sample for testing, she looks obviously skeptical. Someone off camera asks her what's wrong. She remarks that, even though she had just taken this sample herself right now, the blood looks...old.
The sample was apparently too degraded for testing, presumably due to a mistake on the lab's part.
The case didn't move again until 1997....when Schneeberger's wife reported to police that her husband was sexually assaulting her daughter from a previous marriage. This had been apparently going on for several years. He would go into her room, give her injections and assault her.
They took a sample from him again, and videotaped it again. This time, they took multiple kinds of DNA samples: hair, blood (taken from his fingers!), saliva...and it all finally matched Candice/Candy's rape kit.
Insultingly, he was sentenced 6 years and got out on parole after 4. But how did he get away with making an entire town turn on a woman and call her crazy, all the while he was raping his stepdaughter in the same way he raped Candice/Candy?
To illustrate the lengths men go to cover up their violence against women, Schneeberger revealed during the trial that he had SURGICALLY INSERTED A PLASTIC TUBE INSIDE HIS ARM that had the blood of someone else inside. He made sure that examiners took blood from that arm in particular. The blood inside the tube had degraded over time, which was why the examiner had noticed it.
A man surgically inserted a plastic tube of someone else's blood in his arm to avoid DNA tests. Never, ever doubt the depths a man will go to avoid punishment, even the paltry one he got.
