The Problem With Sex Crimes

Sex crimes are not just rape, and there is a wide range of offenses: sexual assault, incest, child pornography, child molestation, indecent exposure, bestiality, and many more.

According to data by RAINN, in the United States, there’s an estimation of more than 463 thousand victims aging 12 or older who are victims of sexual violence (rape and other forms of sexual assault). In addition to another report by Statistica, in 2019, 406,970 women and 52,336 men were raped or sexually assaulted. Especially with the increased internet usage, online sex crimes continue to grow. The government must create better laws when dealing with sex crimes to raise awareness of the importance of protecting society from sex crimes.

A sad reality is that the law and justice system often do not support or side with victims. With power, money, and fame, many celebrities can get away with sex crimes without facing serious consequences. ..
