I don't know why it seems that you are not allowed to both say the above while also acknowledging how awful/scary/terrible it is for the woman involved as well. I don't see it as mutually exclusive.
I think it's because it highlights the double standard we have in society for people accused of rape vs. being accused of just about any other crime. If Adrian Peterson hadn't been suspended last year and had had a terrific season, can you imagine anyone writing "Boy, how impressive is it that he's managed to do this with all of these distractions?"
We'd think that person was crazy, despite the fact that what you say here would be no less true of someone accused of abusing their child.
