Inventor Sonnet Ehlers claims his invention, Rapex, is the solution to rape. How does it work? Essentially, it's a female condom with a locking bear- trap type device inside. We wrote about it last year, when it was delayed, but it's actually a pubic hair's breadth away from being released now.

Hear that? That's the sound of terrifying justice.

BTW, the photo is actually a picture of a Lamprey, a jawless fish that bores into other sea creatures. That is what came to mind when I read the inventor's description of the device. Brian Lam
