What is Date Rape?
Hello
Another major challenge to adequately prosecuting date rape is that the person raped may not have full recollection of the events that occurred. This can be the case, as for example, at parties where a woman, or man, has had too much alcohol. In other instances, some rapists now specifically disable their victims by putting different forms of illegal drugs in their drinks.One potential problem with prosecuting date rape is that the victim, usually the only witness to the crime, must prove he or she did not consent. Dating a person, dressing provocatively, or flirting may be seen as mixed signals. However, any person who declines sex with an acquaintance, a partner, or girlfriend or boyfriend essentially establishes non-consent.If you are the victim of date rape, you are not alone. Reporting date rape can be challenging, and participating in the prosecution of a date rapist is emotionally daunting.
