A friend of ours who works at a local clinic (just north of Houston) said

Many people do not trust the authorities to do anything in such cases in
normal times. Why should they trust them more in these circumstances?
Particularly if they are some of the ones reported to have been raped at
the convention center after having gone there expecting shelter . . .
Or possibly having been raped by "authorities" -- uniformed people there
to keep order at the shelter? This would be *extremely* disturbing.
