The problem is quite often its one word against the other, juries seem to believe that if a girl has been drinking, wearing revealing clothes, has had previous sexual partners etc etc then she was somehow "asking for it" and so these rapists get off. Its ridiculous and so backwards. Even when there is physical evidence as Niamh has said, ripped clothing, bruising, blood......its just "rough" sex. The girl I went through a case with even had some of her close friends who questioned it......one girl asked her was it "just sex gone wrong?" No, it was rape....she said no, he did it anyway, that's not rough sex or sex gone wrong, its rape.
