Description
Prosecution Declined was a year-long look at how rape cases are investigated and prosecuted in Louisville. Louisville police made arrests in only 15 percent of rapes, compared to a national average around 25 percent. But nearly half of all rape cases were cleared another way – “by exception,” meaning police had probable cause to make an arrest, but didn’t make that arrest, for reasons outside their control.
