My first thought was whether this is the real problem. Giving everyone the benefit of the doubt, is this process when arranged by police covered, but if you pursue it yourself without charges not covered? I know nothing about this specific scenario but insurance companies love their paperwork and loopholes. If you don’t do their paperwork the way they want, they make sure to have a loophole
Why would you pursue it by yourself? I’m not trying to sound judgemental with that question but what purpose does it serve other than evidence gathering?
Well if everything in our justice system worked as intended it should lead to a criminal prosecution. Which is why law enforcement should be paying for it. Expecting the victim to do so is asinine.
Of course it’s speculation but the article didn’t mention police. If the police weren’t involved maybe it’s as simple as not wanting to pay for a test which might not even serve as evidence.

And what do you think evidence gathering might lead to?

What’s the point of getting the kit done at all if the police aren’t involved? Isn’t that what they’re for? To collect evidence of the crime.
