to be examined,

He came in

and he helped himself.

- He said he was

going to the bathroom,

And he came into my room

and-

And that's when he raped me.

- The entire time,

I was screaming

And yelling for help

and for him to stop.

Nobody came to the door.

Nobody came to help me,

came to my rescue, or anything.

- They made it very,

very clear

That if I said anything,

They were going

to kill me.

Um, you know,

and then of course,

I didn't have anyone

to go talk to,

Because the people

that were perpetrating me

Were the police.

- It was my first time ever.

And it-

I've had a tough time

Convincing myself

that I'm still a virgin.

- If this happening to me,

you know,

I can only-

surely I'm not the only one.

In which I found out later,

Going through

the claims process,

That I wasn't.

- It's just after 3:00 a.M.

I see shadow of a human head

over my body.

- Next think you know, like,

I wake up.

And, like,

he's on top of me.

- He pushed my legs apart

and put himself on top of me

And started pulling

at my shirt.

- And I wake up and that-

he's on top of me.

He's already penetrated me.

- I was drugged.

I remember the sounds,

the smell.

- He put his locked

and loaded.45

At the base of my skull,

Engaged the bolt

so that I knew

There was a round chambered.

- All I could do was continue

to concentrate on breathing.

- He slammed my head

against the concrete wall,

And, um, very forcefully

had sex with me.

- I just went to my tent,

pulled a sleeping bag

Over my head,

and cried myself to sleep.

- So, within the two week

period,

He raped me five times.

- When we got tested,

I had trich and,

uh, gonorrhea.

And I was pregnant.

- He did.

He raped me.

- In 1991,

in congressional testimony,

It was estimated that

Had been sexually assaulted

so far

In the u.S. Military.

If you take into account

that women don't report,

Because of the extreme

retaliation.

And that was, you know,

more than a decade ago.

Um, I would say you could

easily double that number

And it's probably somewhere

near about 500,000 women

Have now been sexually

assaulted in the u.S. Military.

- Well, according to

the department of defense,

reported assault

In the last fiscal year,

fiscal year of 2009.

But they also admit,

d.O.D. Itself,

That 80% of sexual assault

survivors do not report.

So if you do the math,

were assaulted,

Which is an extraordinary

number.

[pills rattling]

- We have more

in the cars, rob.

There's some in here too.

This all was prescribed in

the last three to four months.

This is paroxetine.

This is seroquel.

Citalopram.

This is xanax.

I'm tired of taking

all these meds.
