I think the key is to educate young women about keeping themselves out of these types of situations. Unfortunately, there is no realistic way you can convict someone for rape when they do it to someone who is highly intoxicated. Women need to protect themselves in these situations - the law just can't do it.

I agree completely. 90% of reported rape claims are false. The percentage that go unreported is of course indeterminable.

I doubt your stats are correct but there are certainly a percentage that are 'next day remorse' type reports. The problem is that htere is no way to get around reasonable doubt when it is just the word of someone who was extremely drunk.

I want to thank you for investigating every single rape complaint in our nation. You are a great American.

"I agree completely. 90% of reported rape claims are false."

I know that there have been a number of articles about false rape claims in light of the Duke situation. Here is a quote from one:

"False charges do exist. FBI statistics show that about 9 percent of rape reports are ''unfounded" -- dismissed without charges being filed. This usually happens when the accuser recants or when her story is not just unsupported but contradicted by evidence. Some studies, including one by pioneering date rape researcher Eugene Kanin, put the rate of false accusations at one in four or even higher."
