False accusation of rape : ウィキペディア英語版 | False accusation of rape
A false accusation of rape is the intentional reporting of a rape where no rape has occurred. While it is difficult to assess the prevalence of false reports due to such accusations being conflated with non-prosecuted cases as "unfounded",〔 in the United States, the FBI ''Uniform Crime Report'' in 1996 and the United States Department of Justice in 1997 stated 8% of rape accusations in the United States were regarded as unfounded or false.〔(''Crime in the United States 1996: Uniform Crime Statistics'', "Section II: Crime Index Offenses Reported." ) FBI, 1997.〕〔Rumney, Philip N.S. (2006). ("False Allegations of Rape" ). ''Cambridge Law Journal'' 65 (1): 128–158. doi:10.1017/S0008197306007069〕 Studies in other countries have reported their own rates at anywhere from 1.5% (Denmark) to 10% (Canada).〔Rumney, ''Cambridge law Journal'', pages 140-142〕 Due to varying definitions of a "false accusation", the true percentage of false accusations remains unknown. == Estimates of prevalence == It is extremely difficult to assess the prevalence of false accusations. Not all jurisdictions have a distinct classification of false accusation, resulting in these cases being combined with other types of cases (e.g. where the accuser did not physically resist the suspect or sustain injuries) under headings such as "unfounded" or "unproved". There are many reasons other than falsity that can result in a rape case being closed as unfounded or unproven.〔〔
