People often look at attorney-client privilege in the criminal arena and presume that, because it could allow a guilty criminal to go free, then it doesn't make any sense. Honestly, however, that's a very small percentage of situations wherein the privilege is ever even used. First, over 90% of criminal matters are settled with a plea bargain -- so there's only 10% of any criminal matter in which the privilege could even affect the outcome. Of that 10%, most attorneys who defend criminals don't want to know whether their client is guilty or innocent, they just want the defendant to tell them their story as they see it happened. On the very rare occurrence when an admission happens, the lawyers hands become tied in several important ways -- not the least of which (at least in WA state) is that they cannot suborn perjury and if they know their client has lied on the stand, they must request that the court relieve them of continuing to represent the client.

At the same time, the sex crime victim's telling of their stories is usually much more inhibited, guarded, and vulnerable to distortion than for victims of other crimes. Complicating the picture even more, no other crime victim interview tends to make the interviewer feel more uncertain about how best to proceed.DON'T - start your interview without again dedicating three or four minutes solely to addressing the victim's needs and concerns.
Sex crimes victims almost always arrive at the interview plagued with shame, anxieties, misinformation, and with fears of being judged. Even more significant, they usually come to these interviews still very uncertain about whether or not they really want to be going forward with the justice process.
This state of mind is in stark contrast, for example, to a robbery victim who is completely unconflicted about their outrage and can't wait to get the story on the record. As long as these anxieties and uncertainties of sex crimes victims remain unaddressed, chances are they're going to be very hesitant and holding back.
