Unfortunately rapists get off (pun unintended) a lot because so much of a rape case is circumstancial unless there is indisputable DNA evidence. Normally it'll be a his word vs. her word case. For this reason, a lot of rapes and sexual assaults do go unreported. I'm sure that a thread asking people on GC who's been raped and/or sexually assaulted and not reported it would garner quite a few responses.
