The Impact of 'Believe Me' In 1982, the film-maker Roger Graef made the first ever fly-on-the-wall documentary about the police, which led to a revolution in the way victims and their cases were approached and handled. However, conviction rates for rape remain low, and documentaries and dramas continue to highlight the role of the police in creating this phenomenon. A New Perspective on a Known Story 'Believe Me' is a four-part drama about the women who were drugged and sexually attacked by John Worboys. The show follows the stories of a few of the 14 women who reported their suspicions that they had been drugged and assaulted by Worboys. The drama showcases their preternatural determination to get justice for themselves and his other victims that the police and judicial system seemed uninterested in providing. The Data Analysis 14 women reported their suspicions that they had been drugged and assaulted by Worboys 100-plus women eventually came forward when Worboys went to trial and after he was convicted The Impact Analysis The drama highlights the failings of the police and judicial system in handling cases of rape and sexual assault.
