11.4 Paraphrasing a Source

"In the aftermath of Rolling Stone's flawed story about an alleged gang rape at the University of Virginia, there has been a rush of concern in certain quarters over the supposed male victims. People have been claiming that Jackie, the UVa student at the center of the story, is part of a trend in false rape reports. The idea that women are deceptively "crying rape" is not something new. But besides misrepresenting what we know about Jackie's case -- no one with knowledge of the alleged incident has stated that an assault did not happen and the Charlottesville, Virginia, police told HuffPost that they're still investigating -- it misses two key truths. False rape reports are rare. And the men and boys who are victims in sexual assault cases are far more likely to have been the targets of abuse themselves than to have been falsely accused of sexual violence." (Kingkade, 2014)


My Paraphrase

There was supposedly a gang rape at the University of Virginia. This case involved Jackie, a student at The University of Virginia. Investigators are still unsure whether or not an assault actually happened at the university. False rape reports don't usually happen, but women are known to falsely report an assault, ("crying rape") which is not always true. This article showed how men/boys who are perceived as the perpetrators, are actually more likely to have been the victims of sexual violence rather than being falsely accused of it.
