Final answer:

Military commanders and senior leadership ensure that reports of sexual assault are referred to CID and evidence is stored according to DoDI 6495.02, while also following notification protocols before evidence destruction.

Step-by-step explanation:

The responsibility to ensure that all reports of sexual assault are immediately referred to the Criminal Investigation Command (CID) for investigation lies primarily with military commanders and senior leadership within the military services. They are tasked with the duty to make sure that evidence, including Sexual Assault Forensic Evidence (SAFE) Kits, and DD Form 2911 are properly managed and stored in accordance with Department of Defense Instruction (DoDI) 6495.02. Furthermore, these authorities are required to adhere to strict notification procedures before any potential destruction of evidence. Compliance with these regulations is crucial to maintain the integrity of the investigative process and support for victims of sexual assault.
