“A 2017 study by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) estimates that the lifetime economic burden of rape per victim is $122,461, which includes the cost of physical and mental health treatment, lost work productivity, and other factors. The White House Council on Women and Girls found in a 2014 study that the cost ranges from $87,000 to $240,776 per rape, which accounts for costs such as medical and victim services, loss of economic productivity, and law enforcement resources. Injustice is expensive.
