Rape is a much more personal and dehumanizing assault that mugging or even (strangely) killing. Think of war, where soldiers who are encouraged to kill are always punished for raping (at least if they're caught, they are). Thus the accusation of rape is a more serious charge and is far less acceptable. Whacking a coach for this accusation is automatic in my book.
