87. As much as I love statistics...
and I do stats for my job, I also have to include personal experience. I know several women who have been sexually assaulted...probably half the women I know. I don't know any who actually pressed charged, much less made a false accusation. I don't think the "big" problem here is false rape claims...I think it's that the vase majority of rapes go unreported and that a piddlingly small percentage of cases result in jail time.
