Cops who don& #39;t take acquaintance rape or date rape seriously, who don& #39;t process the evidence, who don& #39;t even investigate or question ID-ed perpetrators: How do you feel about #unbelievable @netflix? Rape is NOT less real or traumatic when the victim knows the rapist

If you think acquaintance rapists are less likely to be serial offenders than stranger rapists, and therefore less worthy of investigation, why do you presume that?
Is it because you feel that victims of acquaintance rape had some part to play in causing the rape?
Hm?
Do you?

You may think that acquaintance rape is more difficult to successfully prosecute, and you may be right. But they are also THAT much easier to investigate. You know who the guy is! Why not make an effort?
Why don& #39;t you?
Hm?

How messed up is it that watching #unbelievable, I can envy Marie Adler. She was treated like shit by cops, family, friends, work, but her rapist targeted strangers and cops eventually got him.
I got treated like shit by cops, family, friends, work. My serial rapist got promoted.

"Serial rapists are common, they don& #39;t follow a pattern, they& #39;re not very bright, and they& #39;re often the same men who commit acquaintance rape."

"These rapists also frequently assault strangers: & #39;When Cleveland investigators uploaded the DNA from the acquaintance-rape kits, they were surprised by how often the results also matched DNA from unsolved stranger rapes& #39;." https://boingboing.net/2019/07/16/not-napoleons.html">https://boingboing.net/2019/07/1...
"They get away with it because the cops don& #39;t investigate rapes. & #39;These are not the Napoleons of crime. They’re morons. We were letting morons beat us& #39;." https://boingboing.net/2019/07/16/not-napoleons.html">https://boingboing.net/2019/07/1...
So, cops, even if you can& #39;t find room in your heart to take acquaintance rape seriously, our cases may just help you resolve an apparently more glamorous/valid stranger rape.
You got the name, phone nr, workplace, photo. Get the damn DNA, check for priors, ask some Qs dammit.

A thread and a Netflix series for you @Hordalandpoliti @politivest @PSTnorge @Riksadvokaten @PolLimburg @Het_OM @Limburg_OM
@netflix how about focusing on acquaintance rape or domestic violence in a 2nd season of #unbelievable?
