I'm so disgusted by my gender!

FAU student tells police she was raped by several men

A Florida Atlantic University student attending a dance-show after party said she was raped by several men, Boca Raton Police said Friday.

Boca Raton Police detectives "have been interviewing the victim's friends, witnesses and partygoers, checking for video and thoroughly investigating the crime," according to a police department news release.

The incident happened April 12 at the Wayne Barton Center at 269 NE 14th St., police said. And officers responded to Boca Raton Regional Hospital, where they interviewed the student about 5 a.m.


The student told police she was at a step-show after party at the center called "Oil Spill." She became separated from friends at about 2 a.m., police said.

"The victim told officers she had been drinking and at some point, was pulled up on stage behind the curtain by several males who then raped her," according to the release.

1. I was thinking of an Airplane trip to Australia (From Los Angeles)

..halfway.

[trumad]

2. Fine with me.

6. What did the Cook Islands ever do to you???

Why not just hobble them, so we'll know them by their limping?

[BlueJazz]

8. I know a very quiet little spot that they would enjoy.

[MADem]

10. That's a bit ... final.

Gelding and hobbling are "eye for an eye" type punishments, and might serve as a warning to others.

[BlueJazz]

11. You're right. I AM against the death penalty. Still...I have to admit the thought of those MF's...

...falling from 42,000 feet does satisfy a primitive fantasy urge.

16. So genital mutilation

would apply to female rapists as well, right?

[Binkie The Clown]

3. with female guards who are armed with cattle prods.

Oh, wait. I'm not supposed to favor torture.

Well, maybe I'll make an exception in this instance.

[CharlotteVale]

12. +1

[seveneyes]

4. Starting?

There has never been a good reason not to incarcerate persons that target and harm innocents for the rest of their lives.

[seabeyond]

5. gotta love our rape porn, for all to get off on. at our girls expense. nt

[BlueJazz]

7. What ARE you talking about ?

[NaturalHigh]

19. Where did that come from?

Do you keep a list and just copy and paste replies?

[msongs]

9. if later it turns out to be a false conviction you will change your view? nt

14. He said life in prison, not the death penalty. A prison sentence is reversible if the person

turns out to be falsely accused.

[trumad]

15. I didn't say death penalty....

[pnwmom]

13. There is a man I would like to disappear from this earth because I know

he's a pedophile who raped a child entrusted to his care, more than once, and there's nothing I can do about it. Yet.

The child is now a young woman and she's getting therapy that I'm paying for. I won't push her to come forward -- she'll can't do it till she's ready, which might not ever happen. And I can't force the issue by going to the authorities myself -- she'd never be able to trust me again. (Even if I wanted to, I don't know any of the details they would require -- and the young woman, since she was only a young child, probably doesn't either.)

All I know is the name of the man who did this to her, who gave her the PTSD she still struggles with. I've googled him and just his work sites turn up. No stories of arrests for other crimes. And I know the name of the woman who decided that protecting the family's name was more important than going to the police about what he did to her daughter.

I'm not disgusted with your gender, trumad. But I hate this man that I've never even met. He's just walking around like a normal person, and he should have been locked away for life.

[BlueJazz]

18. Are you much older than him?

[pnwmom]

20. He's at least a couple years older than I am.

And his victim is now a college student.

[NaturalHigh]

17. I'm totally fine with a life sentence...

so long as the crime is proved beyond reasonable doubt. What scares me, though, is that so many seem to think an accusation equals proof. If you doubt me, I invite you to look back through threads from March and April of 2006.

Again, though, if someone rapes another person, I am absolutely cool with a life sentence.

[smirkymonkey]

21. +1000

22. If you're serious about wanting to prevent rape,

the most effective use for the money is in primary prevention, focusing on education and changing social perspectives.

With respect to punishment, it is the certainty, not the severity, of punishment that causes the greatest effect on behavior.

If your intention is to reduce recidivism, serious sex offender treatment ought to be included in the prison program. Most of the time, the treatment programs are quite lackadaisical and ineffectual--if the offender can get into them at all.

Also what do you believe the measured recidivism rate among sex offenders is?

[alphafemale]

23. I'm dubious only because there would be no reason to not murder the victim.

It should definitely bring a long sentence, though.

Time and time again I see stories of a person sent to prison for a sex crime, even against children released after serving just a fraction of their sentence. And they are arrested for another sexual assault.
