Im not sure why the impact of the media attention is particularly bad for rape, it seems to be pretty shit if they're murdered (as recent prostitute murders showed).

Personally id grant annonymity to everyone, victims and the accused.
I would imagine it's because there is a sort stigma about being raped as well as being a rapist. It's completely different kind of thing, but some people would find everyone knowing you were raped to be a rather unsttractive proposition.
