Question: I was raped by someone that i know and they claims to be my friend so i know who he is and he knows where i hang out. This happened two weeks ago and im afraid that since i didn't go get tested with a rape kit and he doesn't incriminate himself during questioning or admit to rapping me that the case will just be dropped and they he will be out to try and hurt or even kill me for trying to press charges. What should/can I do to get justice served on my behalf without having to run from him and not go out until i move out of the state of Georgia?

Answer: How can the case be dropped when you never reported the incident and no decision has been made to arrest or jail him? Without you reporting the offense to the police, the police, prosecutor, judge and/or courts will never be involved. No one knows what you should do,because you have too many condition precedents on what you want. You want justice, but you don't want him arrested if he is going to be let out of jail. You want justice, but you don't want to run before you move out of the state of GA. I cannot that the police will take your case more seriously the more time goes by between the incident and the arrest.
