Final answer:
The inaccurate statement is that both restricted and unrestricted reporting require an investigation. Restricted reporting does not initiate an investigation unless it is converted to an unrestricted report. (Option C)
Step-by-step explanation:
The statement that is NOT accurate regarding options available for victims of sexual assault when reporting incidents is c. Both restricted and unrestricted reporting require an investigation. Restricted reporting allows for confidentiality and does not initiate an investigation unless the victim chooses to go forward with an unrestricted report.
Unrestricted reporting involves official investigation and potential legal action. These options are pivotal because accurate statistics on intimate partner violence (IPV) are tough to acquire, with many cases going unreported. The decision to report is a critical step in addressing and exposing patterns of abuse.
