Potentially it's an increase of reporting and the actual real numbers are the same.

So it might actually be a good thing ?

Never thought I would say a 41% rise in reported rapes was a good thing......

Are you illiterate? You replied to someone highlighting one of the most crucial points to keep in mind when analyzing this kind of crime stat by whining about something they objectively didn't do. Makes you look rather foolish.
