The jury will come into the court-room with their own biases. Those biases are most definitely against the man.

Do the figures back that up?

In the UK of all cases that go to court the conviction rate is 57%, for rape it's 58%. ie. Rape prosecutions are pretty much the average conviction rate. So no evidence of bias against the rapist there.

What are the US figures?
