Device idea

Unless the penalty is the electric chair.
A penalty is, at best, applicable AFTER THE FACT!
For personal self defense, an electronic device capable of producing (inducing) fear, leading to runnig away, in the brain of the agressor. Rather more effective than a medium caliber firearm, and safer for others in the vecinity as well.
An electronic noise device able to produce a noise level of at least 130dB as a more possible alternative. Or maybe 145dB sound level. Louder would be better. The challenge is powering the thing, as well as size, weight, and price.

Looked up the suggested phrase. It is about the rape of an 8 year old girl in Bangladesh.

So I assume SA means sexual assault.

I doubt that electronics is the solution.
She was beheaded afterwards and all these happened in the same building where she had been living since she was born. Her mother was crying and banging the door of the perpetrator's apartment, begging them to open while all these were happening. Under the Speedy Trial Tribunal, the main culprit and his wife were given death sentence. Verdict was given on 7th of this month. They are appealing against the verdict now. Nobody knows when they will be executed finally, if ever! Everyday we get to see news of crimes like this whenever we open the newspapers.

Coming back to my idea, I have explained that in post#14. I'd specifically like to know how to rule out the chances of false positive in the setup that I am thinking. Thank you.

How do you filter pure abject terror from genuine emotion? ... Say you were to monitor the heart rate and breathing. Both would rise significantly while experiencing a tragedy, as well as witnessing a goal by your favorite soccer team ... I just can't think of a practical and economical way of achieving what you want.

Yeah. This is exactly my concern. This is why I was looking for experts who perhaps have experience in such project implementation.

So... just how would this device have changed anything? Obviously her mother knew where she was and that she was in serious danger. Obviously the attackers knew someone was banging on the door crying and screaming.

Why is there any reason to believe that they wouldn't have just ripped the device off of her and smashed it before proceeding exactly as they did?

You can't.

Yes, this possibility came across my mind too. This is why I posted the question here. To find more loopholes and possible solutions from the experts, thanks.

The only way to solve the problem you've described, that I can think of, is to have a surveillance state watching the population 100% of the time, aided by AI ... not a realistic scenario. The solution to your problem is going to have to wait at least 50 years more, if it ever gets solved at all.

Even that would not have stopped it. The perpetrators clearly did fear being identified, since they proceeded while the mother was banging on their door.
