i think this asshole captain deserves everything about to be thrown at him
"Every rape should be investigated. I wish we could do more," Captain Peter Rose, head of the 94th Precinct, told DNAinfo New York.
"It really becomes a balancing act for the investigators.
"Some of them were Tinder, some of them were hookup sites, some of theme were actually coworkers. It's not a trend that we're too worried about because out of 13 [sex attacks], only two were true stranger rapes.
"They're not total abomination rapes where strangers are being dragged off the streets," Rose later said at a Community Council meeting Wednesday night.
"If there's a true stranger rape, a random guy picks up a stranger off the street, those are the troubling ones. That person has, like, no moral standards."
His comments raised concerns with Jane Manning of the National Organization for Women.
"The idea that 'this isn't some guy who's dangerous to women,' that in itself is a major window into the mentality that we are up against," she said.
"If you have the commander of a precinct making comments like that, he’s setting a tone for all the officers of a unit about how seriously to take acquaintance rape cases.
"When I hear the phrase we didn't have a cooperating victim, my antenna always goes up. If you hear 'I can't get the victim to cooperate' in case after case, you should be asking yourself what are they failing to do?"
Nationally, only about 14 percent of rapes are stranger rapes, according to a 2012 report from the national Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
