Thank you for highlighting the terrible injustices that police do not prioritise because the victims are considered not ‘worthy’ enough. However, if police did start seeing all victims equally they would stop violent offenders before more victims are violated, or as forensic psychology has shown repeatedly, the inevitable escalation of violence that ends in murders, that remain unsolved.
