I Was Raped And The Police Believe Me But The Investigator Does Not. Help

Location: California

So a few months back this guy did not violently rape me, but he penetrated me multiple times when I said no. He stopped each time I said no, and then did it again, only stopping finally when I yelped in pain and stumbled, almost falling. He played each time off as an accident but genuinely there is just no way. He texted me asking why I removed him on social media and we got into an argument because I confronted him. He swore up and down that it was an accident but I know 100% that it wasn’t. I won’t go into the details on the post to protect anonymity.

I told the police everything and showed them the messages. They said he committed a felony and that violence does not need to be committed for a crime to occur and that we’d do a cold call to get a confession, also pointing out to me that his tone and words in the messages indicate a lack of empathy or guilt because he was being quite rude in most of the thread, also admitting that he made fun of me for the situation at one point. However, after speaking to an investigator a few days later, I was told that he was probably lying about having sexual experience to impress me and that a crime didn’t occur because there was not violence and that he stopped (even though I emphasized that he stopped for like a second and then continued) and that he was telling the truth about it being unintentional; when I explained more, she said “I know you feel that way” in a condescending tone and I started sobbing to this woman pleading that I’m telling the truth and she asked what my goal in reporting it was.

I asked her if we’d still do a cold call and she said it’s not necessary now; since he didn’t incriminate himself under zero pressure, case is closed.

I know that this is not going to be easy to prove but I didn’t expect to not be given the time of day. I’m really not sure what to do moving forward but if anyone here knows anything or has any advice please comment.

He has a pattern of behavior that pushes the envelope and already has an allegation of sexual assault against him but I don’t believe it was brought to the police. He’s admitted to pressuring me for other things and what not (which I did not give in) but he’s fully aware and manipulative.

Thanks for reading.
