Not as odd as you might think. It's standard procedure (in the US and UK at least) for the Police to re-open cases upon receipt of new information, testimony or evidence (or if there is a new way to examine existing evidence).

If the lady who was penetrated while asleep (which, as discussed above, is rape however you dress it up) said this to the Police, it would certainly cause them to re-open the case.
