CASE STUDY: Douglas County, CO filed 617 domestic violence cases in 2025. The sexual assault count? Unknown — the DCSO has not published an annual statistical report since 2021. The DA publicly acknowledged a sex crime surge severe enough to describe five simultaneous teacher prosecutions. CBI confirmed a 41% increase in non-consensual sex offenses at DCSO in 2024 — highest of any top-ten Colorado jurisdiction while the state decreased 16%. Zero prosecution outcomes published. Zero conviction rates. Zero enforcement data. Those survivors are not statistics. So are you.
In January 2024, Douglas County commissioned a domestic violence survivor survey. They announced it. They collected responses. The results have never been published.
It goes further. Douglas County filed 617 domestic violence cases in 2025. The sexual assault count is not low. Not unavailable. Unknown — the DCSO has not published an annual statistical report since 2021. The DA publicly acknowledged a sex crime surge. CBI confirmed a 41% increase in non-consensual sex offenses at DCSO in 2024 — highest of any top-ten Colorado jurisdiction while the state decreased 16%. A CORA request is pending. The county is not volunteering the number.
That silence has swallowed every survivor who reported, followed the steps, and was told their experience did not warrant an outcome worth documenting.
This is not that survey. This one gets published. This one names the pattern. This one belongs to the survivors who fill it out.
This is not limited to Douglas County. If you reported anywhere in the United States and were dismissed, silenced, or erased, your record belongs here.

My name is Siren. I am a Certified Narcissistic Abuse Recovery Specialist, a National Ambassador for Men's Health Network, and a Trauma-Informed Coach. I spent years in government policy, communications, and advocacy before any of that.
I did not create The Survivor Record to talk about my own experience. I created it because Douglas County, Colorado commissioned a DV survivor survey in January 2024, collected responses through February 5, 2024, and has never published the results. Not once. Not anywhere. The survey page still exists on the sheriff's website. The results do not.
This is not that survey. This one gets published. Every result. Every pattern. Every number that has a human being behind it. The Survivor Record is part of a five-part investigative series examining Douglas County's domestic violence infrastructure failures alongside a broader national pattern of survivor erasure.
You reported. That took everything you had. The system may have treated your experience like a line item. I will not. Your story belongs in this record.
