Why your rape statistics are likely wrong (and begging for media attention)
Ed Claughton
PRI President & CEO
We at PRI sincerely hope, and highly suggest, that your agency pay heed to and take action on what you are about to read. Doing so may very well help it avoid disastrous media attention. The all too common lack of media interest in reporting the facts, or in taking the time to provide the reader the detailed "why" behind the story, only contributes to the negative perception of law enforcement that is so prevalent today. How? In this case, an assumption is being made that law enforcement is purposefully manipulating sexual assault statistics. Unfortunately, the profession has brought it upon itself.
When is the last time your agency audited its rape statistics? Exceptional clearances? Unfounded cases? For the last several years, police rape investigations and the statistics they produce have been the subject of numerous news articles.
