http://www.mincava.umn.edu/documents/acquaintsa/participant/allegations.pdf states that
'Clearly, it is inappropriate to use unfounding or other noncriminal codes as a means for dumping
sexual assault cases that are considered to be murky or difficult. The solution to the problem,
however, is two-pronged. On the one hand, every case of sexual assault must be investigated
thoroughly, based on the assumption that the claim is valid. The reality is that despite the threat
of false allegations that is present for every type of crime, police and society have historically
viewed sexual assault victims with heightened suspicion." Each case must be handled with care and followed through completely.
