It's very easy for us to sit back and say "she should have told someone".

Rape is not about sex, it's about power and control. He raped her not only physically, but emotionally as well and there will be issues she will have to deal with for the rest of her life.

When you're in this situation, you do whatever it takes to survive. Some people emotionally cannot handle the ordeal of a rape kit, questioning and trial.

As was said before, often the vicitm is raped twice.....by the offender and by the system.
