but how many cases actually fit this?

These are the cases that people are arguing about changing the laws for
because women in that situation are making a complaint but because there is no realistic chance of prosecution they aren't going to court.

If you don't pay a prostitute, does that constitute as rape?
I don't mean that in a bad way, I was just wondering.

I have no idea
I would have thought most would demand the money up front.

It only takes one case for there to need to be a range of sentences.
As a lawyer you should know that. Otherwise, if you suggest that there has to be a minimum of fifteen years for rape, it would mean in the case above the bloke would get 15 years (massively over the top) or, more likely, CPS wouldn't prosecute (which would be very wrong)

I imagine it's more than what is reported.
