Wesley, don't take it out of context. This particular point arose because a Member suggested only backward (or similar word) countries' females would never report sexual abuse. Mothra's experience blows that out of the water.

Sexual assault is one of the most under reported crimes, with 68% still being left unreported.1

Why Will Only 2 Out of Every 100 Rapists Serve Time?
The majority of sexual assault are not reported to the police (an average of 68% of assaults in the last five years were not reported).1 Those rapists, of course, will never spend a day in prison. But even when the crime is reported, it is unlike to lead to an arrest and prosecution. Factoring in unreported rapes, only about 2% of rapists will ever serve a day in prison.

Out of every 100 rapes:

32 get reported to the police

7 lead to an arrest

3 are referred to prosecutors

2 lead to a felony conviction

2 rapists will spend a single day in prison

Can you really not work this out for yourself? They are reported to rape crisis centres; doctors; hospitals or counsellors.

Numbers are also uncovered through surveys.

Hidden crime of sexual assault

Sexual assault is a vastly under-reported, under-investigated and under-convicted crime. According to the Victorian Law Reform Commission, one in six reports to police of rape, less than one in seven reports of incest or sexual penetration of a child, one in seven reports of women sexually assaulted by a current partner and just over one in six reports of sexual assault by any other male result in prosecution.

Of all those committing sexual assaults in Victoria, less than five per cent face legal punishment. Women are more likely to report the crime to police if the offender is a stranger. Women are less likely to report current husbands, de facto partners or boyfriends.
Reasons for under-reporting of sexual assault

Research shows that sexual assault is not reported to the police for a number of reasons including:
lack of faith in police and the justice system
the fear of not being believed
fear of coping with the medical and legal procedures
fear of reprisals
not wanting family and friends to know
humiliation and shame
prevalent social attitudes, which blame the victim for sexual assault.
