Soon to be the Netflix Limited Series Unbelievable, starring Toni Collette, Merritt Wever, and Kaitlyn Dever • Two Pulitzer Prize-winning journalists tell the riveting true crime story of a teenager charged with lying about having been raped—and the detectives who followed a winding path to arrive at the truth. “Gripping . . . [with a] John Grisham–worthy twist.”—Emily Bazelon, New York Times Book Review (Editors’ Choice) On August 11, 2008, eighteen-year-old Marie reported that a masked man broke into her apartment near Seattle, Washington, and raped her. Within days police and even those closest to Marie became suspicious of her story. The police swiftly pivoted and began investigating Marie. Confronted with inconsistencies in her story and the doubts of others, Marie broke down and said her story was a lie—a bid for attention. Police charged Marie with false reporting, and she was branded a liar. More than two years later, Colorado detective Stacy Galbraith was assigned to investigate a case of sexual assault. Describing the crime to her husband that night, Galbraith learned that the case bore an eerie resemblance to a rape that had taken place months earlier in a nearby town. She joined forces with the detective on that case, Edna Hendershot, and the two soon discovered they were dealing with a serial rapist: a man who photographed his victims, threatening to release the images online, and whose calculated steps to erase all physical evidence suggested he might be a soldier or a cop. Through meticulous police work the detectives would eventually connect the rapist to other attacks in Colorado—and beyond. Based on investigative files and extensive interviews with the principals, A False Report is a serpentine tale of doubt, lies, and a hunt for justice, unveiling the disturbing truth of how sexual assault is investigated today—and the long history of skepticism toward rape victims.

Falschaussage: Eine wahre Geschichte

btb Verlag

El caso estaba cerrado. No quedaba duda: Marie inventó la historia de un hombre enmascarado que irrumpió en su departamento, y la excusa de la violación no era más que un grito para llamar la atención. Sin embargo, años después y a cientos de kilómetros de distancia, dos detectives encuentran razones suficientes para reabrir la investigación. Con suspenso y angustia, los autores de este libro reconstruyen la historia real detrás del caso de Marie y de la investigación para encontrar al presunto culpable: un hombre que fotografió a sus víctimas, amenazando con publicar las imágenes en línea, y cuyos pasos calculados para borrar toda evidencia física sugerían que podría tratarse de un policía o un militar. Abriéndose paso entre mentiras e interrogantes, ¿Por qué no me creen? narra el caso real de un violador en serie en Estados Unidos. Sus páginas --difíciles de creer-- descubren el tortuoso camino de las víctimas que se enfrentan a un sistema de justicia escéptico y en su contra, y de los policías e investigadores que, desde el mismo sistema, se empeñan en descubrir la verdad. T. Christian Miller y Ken Armstrong ganaron el premio Pulitzer en la categoría de Reportaje Explicativo por «An Unbelievable Story of Rape» en 2016. Este libro expande su investigación. Tres casos de abuso sexual, dos detectives y la búsqueda de la verdad.
