When a woman living alone is raped in her own room, the perpetrator is often someone who already has a history of criminal offenses and has committed multiple assaults. If a complete stranger breaks into her room, the victim is usually too terrified to scream or resist. To avoid being killed, she has no choice but to silently endure the rape. Being trapped alone in a room with the attacker is extremely dangerous, and with no help available, she faces a serious threat to her life.
