That is a factual remark, though and its quite simple math. If 15% of the population is 5.5 times more likely to be charged than the remaining 85% of the population in order for that to be true the 15% of the population must account for 85% of the instances. 15.5* 5.5=85 + 15.5 = 100 Those numbers are in the Bra report its not difficult to deduce... There is something wrong with reporting if less than 3% of rapes are resulting in convictions. Do I believe everything the gatestone institute says, no. What I gave you came directly from the Swedish government and Sweden's issues do not stem from the last 3 years. Sweden has been importing refugees from the Middle East and North Africa as part of policy to deal with a demographic issue and lack of immigration from Western Nations since the 1970s.
If it wasn't an issue why do you think they stopped reporting the numbers in the 90s? It's not because they were favorable |

I did some more reading and found this: "The report is based on statistics for those "suspected" of offences for reasons of comparison, but Stina Holmberg of the Council for Crime Prevention said that there was "little difference" in the statistics for those suspected of crimes and those actually convicted. "
It seems those 5.5 times more likely rates were not convictions but being 5.5 times more likely to be suspected and charged, but not convicted. Actual convictions were about the same according to the same report.
There was a police memo circulated stating the reason they were not reporting ethnicity traits in their public reports now is that they were afraid of being accused of racism.
