that is not what you actually said.

I think you are quite proud of yourself for advancing mistruths, at best. Your headline claims she was raped, when her actual police report does not make that claim. You then make another claim and when called out on it, you edited it into snark to make yourself the victim. But you did not stop there. Your edit implies you said something different than what you actually said. Why? What is in it for you to make lies up over one story?

My kid's freshman year in college a girl made up a story about being mugged while she was out jogging. Nowhere was it ever implied that by her making up the story, it was as bad as being a mugger. Do you think the next time a mugging victim went to the police, they were not believed? No that honor is only saved for rape victims.
