...Beyond sociological reasons lie the personal fears, guilt and shame of the victim himself. Police rarely hear from the businessman who has been robbed by a prostitute. They are even less likely to get a complaint from the hoodlum who has been threatened by the Mafia or the teen-ager who has paid for pot and got oregano instead.
