"FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE May 5, 2016 *** STATEMENT ***
PENTAGON RELEASES NEW REPORT SHOWING NO PROGRESS ON SEXUAL ASSAULT, PRESENTS MISLEADING CLAIMS ON RATES OF RETALIATION AGAINST SURVIVORS
A report released today by the Pentagon shows that reporting rates remain unchanged and victims continue to be dissatisfied with the military justice system. The report includes data from an unscientific survey that attempts to redefine retaliation and minimize the severity of widespread retaliation against sexual assault survivors, and paint a more favorable light on this crisis.

I understand. I had a male Soldier that tried to get into group thearpy for sexual assault and it was for females only. He needed help just as much.

I buried the memories for 40 some years and recently remembered details as if it was yesterday during counseling sessions and the reasons why I would over react to GAY LESBIAN PEOPLE WITH EXTREME HATRED. It was,caused by gays and lesbians,attacking me,when I was most vulnerable i.e. bathroom, shower, bed, dancing, etc.

What is the current state of affairs with separating the alleged survivor and the alleged suspect? Unfortunately no matter the outcome of any reported offense, whether substantiated or not, both of the primary individuals involved end up with the perception that they were retaliated against. For the military can anyone come up with an equitable solution? I do not believe so, especially when there are false accusations or blackmail situations. Another issue is the reporting of the male victims, especially when the suspect is a female.
A prime example is the anecdotal statements by women about incidents that have lead up to the current situation with CSM Angelia Flournoy.
