Bad Cop: 'Police Didn't Want Me To File Rape Report'




There are shocking allegations from the mother of a Baltimore teenager.


Quote from the article:

She says her daughter was raped and police tried to stop her from filing a report.

Adam May explains how her accusation adds to growing criticisms against Baltimore City Police.

Three weeks after Baltimore City Police launched an internal investigation into an unexplained, suspicious, dramatic drop in rape reports, a mother of a city teenager claims a police detective tried to persuade her against filing a report.

"They had her in a car, pulled down her pants, raped her," said the woman, identified only as Renee. "He pulls me out in the hall and says, `You know this is gonna be hard on her. We're gonna ask a lot of personal questions--is she a virgin? Did she have sex with guys?' Basically trying to get me out of going forward with it."

Police have reported an 80% drop in the number of rapes since 1995, 10 times the national average of eight percent.



Now we know why...
