It is about false accusations of sexual assault. The sound quality is a little rough, but I consider the message to be quite important. Enjoy the rerun episode. An article in slate.com by Cathy Young (2014) reviews the importance of false rape accusations and the controversies that ensue. A segment from Roy Hazelwood and Ann Burgess from "Practical Aspects of Rape Investigation" (1987) provide insight on how to approach such cases. The sensitive nature of this topic requires an objective and careful examination of all the factors involved. Links for this podcast…
