Reply to comment by Darkling5499 in Police: Stamford woman sexually assaulted teen, gave alcohol to minors by jaydecay123

There is no continued trend in the news. We literally provide information to the public straight from the police department. If police call it a "sexual assault" we call it a sexual assault.

There absolutely is. I can count on 1 hand how many times I've seen a female teacher sleeping with a male student reported as "rape" and not "sexual assault" or other non-rape terms.

Then that's the information that police have given to the news outlet. In this case specifically, police have referenced the incident as 'sexual assault.'

That's fair, I will cede that in this case that may be entirely true, and not just "the usual".
