"It's not in anyone's interest to hide numbers, to hide incidents." - "Chief" J. "Frank" Wiley

        "one audience member asked if victims of sexual assaults were being discouraged from pressing charges.

        "'My very first response to that is, why would you think they would be discouraged?' Wiley said.

        "Wiley said his officers review all the options for victims, which include whether to press charges or go through the university's internal disciplinary process.

        "Wiley said university police honor victims' choices.

        "'It's not in anyone's interest to hide numbers, to hide incidents. And the reason for that is simply this: The damage to the credibility of the police department and the institution is far greater if that were to occur. We do not have a senior administration that has ever considered doing anything like that. I have never received any pressure to keep numbers down.' [...]

        Officer Jennifer Fila [...] who has been on the UAlbany force since 1998, said victims are not discouraged from pursuing criminal charges.

        "'We explain the process of each, and we leave it completely up to the woman [sic],' she said.

        "The department always honors victims' request, said UAlbany Police Capt. Aran Mull

Victims are in fact discouraged by SUNY Albany - through threats issued by SUNY Albany. SUNY Albany police officers do not review all the options for victims. SUNY Albany police do not honor victims' choices. SUNY Albany police no hide numbers and incidents. Wiley, Fila, and Mull apparently aren't very good at telling the truth.
