With Military Failing To Prosecute Rapists, Calls Grow for Civilian Prosecutor

Even with 1 out of 3 women facing sexual assault in the military, the Defense Department refuses to hold sexual predators accountable within the military justice system.

One in three--that's the astounding number of women who have been sexually assaulted in the military, a rate twice as high as civilian numbers. Those are astonishing, especially in light of the fact that only 10 percent of reported incidents go to trial. This harsh reality has put the Defense Department in the hot seat with Congress, pressuring them to make substantive changes. Now Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel is planning a new round of sexual assault policies that include expanding an advocacy program for victims to all military branches and recurring inspector-general audits of all closed investigations.

These one out of three woman will never get justice from Obama or anyone else .. For the life of me I cannot understand why any woman wants to be a soldier in the field .. She wants the support of the American public? She really is dreaming, even if they get the STOP act it will be ceremonial only .. I feel bad but until these woman just all walkout at the same time breaking military rules and say f my " career " nothing will happen these woman need to be at every recruiting office telling potential women who want to do there patriotic duty that they will most likely be raped repeatedly ... Makes me sick
