​USA: The silent epidemic

During their years in college, one out of five women will be sexually assaulted. Ninety-five percent of the time the assault will remain unreported, making it a silent epidemic. Sexual assault continues to represent the most rapidly growing violent crime in America, claiming a victim every 45 seconds.

Suzanne Richiardone and Yoann Le Gruiec investigate the campus culture of America.
