The Defense Department has decided to make its top sexual assault expert, Dr. Kaye Whitley, available to testify before Congress.

Whitley, director of the office of sexual assault prevention and response, is now expected to appear at a Sept. 12 hearing of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee’s national security panel.

Whitley had been asked to appear at a July 31 hearing about military efforts to reduce sexual assault, but she did not appear after senior defense officials decided to have someone else testify.

The hearing featured testimony by a sexual assault victim and the mother of a service member who had been raped and murdered.
