Date rape is a fast growing phenomenon in Pubs and Nightclubs. The essential idea is that you spike a target's drink with a
sedative drug, usually GHB or
Rohypnol, and wait for them to become affected and semi-unconscious. At this point you offer to help the virtually incapacitated victim home or to a taxi, obviously nobody will be suspicious as the victim appears simply to be heavily inebriated. Having taken the victim to a secluded spot, you proceed to rape them, the effect of the drug ensuring they can offer no resistance or remember the experience/assailant. Due to the nature of the crime, in up to 80% of date rapes the victim knows the rapist well.
