so, basically, out of 25% of the cases the FBI COULD obtain, 8 out of 10 cases showed the primary suspect WAS indeed the possible or even probable perp......some inconclusive readings but mostly conclusive with only 20% of the 25% being excluded...

I would imagine that a 20% rate of falsehood would be pretty much the norm in most crimes....probably a low ball figure for some crimes.

I wish the women haters would get off this " false rape " accusation diatribe and their phoney baloney so-called statistics, because they're certainly are statistics out there that say MOST rape victims never even report what happened to them.....

I think the point of the article is that many man-hating feminists claim that women never lie about rape and so therefore all rape charges are automaticaly true, when, in fact, a significant fraction of them do lie.

Didn't you know? That's because that's all men do is rape, rape, rape!

Tell me, Cherry. If most rape victims NEVER even report what happened to them, how is it "known" that it happened? Word of mouth? Group hug therapy for "I was raped" wanna-be-celebrities? Polling data from College "Women's Studies" classes?

You bet your little diatribe p'd me off. Especially when you float out "I wish the women haters "..

Women haters? No. Women demanding to be treated as equals but then given more rights than anyone else? Does this constitute "women haters" to you?

It isn't a contradiction. Even if, say, 8 out of 10 rapes are never reported, it appears that 25% or more of those that are reported are false accusations. Apples and oranges.
