Chapter Twelve: Keep Breathing
Rating: M for this chapter
Genre: J2 RPS
Pairing/ Characters: Jared/Jensen, Mark Pellegrino, Traci Dinwiddie
Word Count: Approx 2900
Warning: This story contains non-con/ sexual assault although this chapter contains no graphic references. Please heed warnings if this is a trigger for you.

Authors Notes: First, apologies for taking so long for this chapter, I've been hellishly busy, sorry! Second, I have no working knowledge of the legal system of the United States as I live in Australia. Everything regarding the legal side of things has been learned through extensive research via Google, reading papers on rape and the legal system and visiting law enforcement websites. The information regarding the police departments mentioned is as accurate as I could get it but some dramatic license has been taken. For example; the departments and divisions are real, as are the jurisdictions, but when it comes to one bureau allowing officers to work with another, it's doubtful that would happen. Any statistical information regarding sexual assault, arrest and conviction rates that will be mentioned in future chapters is all real. And yes, what I say about the arrest rates of LASD vs LAPD in this chapter is true and well documented. What I've said regarding the media and the disclosure of rape victims names is also, unfortunately, true. I hope you don't find this chapter too boring, it's a necessary precursor to upcoming chapters. The chapter titles are all song titles. This one is taken from Keep Breathing by Ingrid Michelson.
