Lisa Wilkinson TIME FOR THE TRUTH

While it’s very difficult to measure the true extent of sexual assault in Australia, with an overwhelming number of incidences going unreported, it’s estimated that two million adults had experienced at least one sexual assault since the age of 15, according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics.
