How many people on here have been assaulted/raped and have either reported or not reported it?

I found out that the conviction rate rapes was just 6% . 6% of reported rapes. There are many many many more that go unreported. I want to know roughly what kind of figure we are looking at. Please change your name if need be, but do post.....

I'll start..

Me - unreported.

Donbean · 13/09/2006 20:43

can i ask why you all didnt report it?

AllieDelOllio · 13/09/2006 20:43

probably cos of the piss poor 6% conviction rate?

twinsetandpearls · 13/09/2006 20:44

me , unreported as it was my husband and thought it would get me nowhere and I was to ill to be up to a trial and it resulted in dd.

feckit · 13/09/2006 20:45

I think you have to have been there to understand why it goes without being reported laneydaye.
It's so personal, by definition, by experience, by everything.

Donbean · 13/09/2006 20:45

oh twinset hun, im so so sorry. Love to you x

CrocodileKate · 13/09/2006 20:45

Me - unreported.

Tawny75 · 13/09/2006 20:45

Me - Reported it

galaxy · 13/09/2006 20:45

me - unreported because I'd been drinking and thought I'd get blamed.

MerlinsBeard · 13/09/2006 20:46

i was young so may not have believed me, some of it was ritual and would have been carried on regardless of report or not (prob worse if i had reported) and some was a relative, didn't want to upset the family. Still don;t.

laneydaye · 13/09/2006 20:46

ffs am reading these threads in disbelief...

twinsetandpearls · 13/09/2006 20:46

Nothing to be sorry about, was partly my own fault for stopping in such a carcrash of a marraige and now ahve a wonderful dd.

twinsetandpearls · 13/09/2006 20:46

Thanks though, hope all is well up your neck of the woods x

morningpaper · 13/09/2006 20:46
