But service manager at Lincolnshire Rape Crisis Laura Wint-McKane is questioning the results and whether police have done enough to investigate them.
She says that although the police may decide it's a 'no crime', it still doesn't mean a rape didn't take place.Ah, if only the police could have video evidence, eh, Laura..?
Oh. Wait.*
Nick Hall, divisional manager for victim support in Lincolnshire, says it takes a huge amount of courage to report an alleged rape and these figures may put women off.And will you then have to find another job, Nick?

ReplyDeleteErm, yes it does. One of those 'no crimes' happened very close to my house recently: http://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/news/11017475.Police_find_no_evidence_of_Darwen_rape/
Police are 'no longer investigating', apparently. Surely they should be investigating HER?
