A crime with a different name – the Hawk eye

“Not all men.”

The statement is true, but almost every woman has a story; In America, 81% of women have reported a kind of sexual harrasment, assault or rape.

Although April – month of consciousness for sexual assault – is still over, it is still important to take a closer look at these statistics and to change in the way in which society reacts to rape cases.

Detective, police officers and lawyers are known in the judicial system Ask The victim's rationality. These questions Remain a reason Why rape victims rarely come to the police to report a crime because “not of the opinion that the police would do something to help” is the third most common cause of victims who decide not to report the crime. From each 1,000 rapes975 rapists are free. Of these 1,000, only 310 cases are actually reported. Of these reported cases, 50 will lead to an arrest, while only half of them will lead to a prison sentence.

In the book “Missoula“Jon Krakauer discusses several rape cases on the Montana University – also known as” America's rape capital “. Some of these cases include those of Allison Huguet, Kelsey Belnap, Cecilia Walshburn, Kerry Barret and Kaitlyn Kelly.

This is not only for the University of Montanta; This is the reality of other college students than 13% of the students Experience sexual assault during your college years, and College women are raped three times more often than all women. The shocking reality is that the statistics of the Montana University are not far from most universities. In 2022 the school reached 21 reported rapes On campus within this year. In 2021, 11,580 Sexual crimes were reported together under all college campus.

While it is unfortunately impossible to completely end rape cases, we can change the way society reacts to it. Rape is the most reported crime with 63% of cases not be reported. It is important that the victims are encouraged to find a strong support system from friends and family members who support them. Otherwise the pattern can be continued. If you believe raped victims and more convicted perpetrators are convicted, the trend of the victims taken silence can slow down.

Victims of abuse should be treated with love, friendliness and support; They should not be avoided, judged or pushed into the shade. Rape statistics are shocking and hideous, and we should not allow them to continue to increase. When April approaches its end, we have to treat awareness and victims with respect every month of the year. This pattern has to stop.
