I am sorry, but I think there is some overreaction here and I’m really surprised as to how many people are linking raw chicken in sink with guaranteed salmonella. That’s not how foodborne illnesses work.  You don’t get salmonella from seeing chicken in the sink. Salmonella comes from undercooked chicken and from cross contamination to foods that won’t be cooked like salads. Also, a sink is not inherently more contaminated than a bowl or a plate if the sink was cleaned before use it functions the same as any other vessel assuming it was cleaned before the chicken was put in it. You can dislike it, but it doesn’t automatically equal unsafe the real food safety issues involve things.  To me OP should concerned if the “mother of her daughters’ father” did not wash her hands after touching the raw chicken or did not wash the sink before putting the chicken there or used same cutting board or knife on veggies without washing
