This just needs to be said, in re the following sentence:

Judy Benitez, executive director of the Louisiana Foundation Against Sexual Assault, cautioned that it might be too soon to say whether there really were rapes at the evacuation sites [during hurricane Katrina.] ~isn’t that still going on?~

It is absolutely too soon.

    Too soon literally or too soon as in “I don’t want to see a disaster within a disaster.”?

    No way to get over a rape in time to declare there were none, expecting everyone to just come forward immediately.

    Should I revise?

    No, just asking in general. Thanks.
