These allegations are extremely serious, and for those that may be skeptical, please remember that only 2%-10% of reported sexual assaults are falsified. Compare that against the fact that every 98 seconds, an American is sexually assaulted, and that approximately 65% of those sexual assault cases go unreported by victims. We at Saint Audio support Chelsea in this difficult time, and most importantly, we believe her. If you’d like to stand with Chelsea and protest The Gaslamp Killer’s upcoming tour dates, journalist and producer Dani Deahl‘s tweets can help.
