From the article:
Jackie’s former roommate, Rachel Soltis, said that she noticed emotional and physical changes to her friend during the fall semester of 2012, when the two shared a suite on campus.
“She was withdrawn, depressed and couldn’t wake up in the mornings,” said Soltis, who told the Post that she was convinced that Jackie was sexually assaulted. Soltis said that Jackie did not tell her about the alleged sexual assault until January 2013. Soltis said that she did not notice any apparent wounds on Jackie’s body at the time that might have indicated a brutal attack.
No, UVa suspended all fraternity activities for the rest of the semester under their “punish the innocent” strategy.
“I commented on the original story that it was all but word for word from a TV show script from the 80s, and very similar to another show and a movie about that time.”
I think I remember your comment! I didn’t think it sounded like a movie but the detail that got me was the shattered glass coffee table and how useless her friends were in caring for her.
Making false accusations of rape is an extraordinarily low thing to do ...
After all of the outrage and the hyperventilating, including that engaged in by the university president, Virginia lawmakers (including Republicans), and my local news station, WSET-13, it comes to this.
Maybe, just maybe, they’ll wait for some facts to roll in next time, rather than clutching their pearls over an allegation.
I'm not casting aspersions but those symptoms can also be attributed to drug use.
We all said that same thing after The Duke Lacrosse Frame collapsed, but looks like the hope was misplaced.
Actually, it looks like what is happening to Cosby.
There was a gang rape at Rolling Stone?? Nitwits can’t even put a sentence together.
They probably also have a new opening for a reporter.
I think all fraternities were banned from campus for 1 year on the basis of this allegation.
That is what I remember reading.
“I’m not casting aspersions but those symptoms can also be attributed to drug use.”
I wonder if she had a mental problem.
Bi Polar disorder also starts to manifest about that age for many, and can present the same symptoms.
Yes, it’s likely too much to expect, no matter how many times this kind of thing happens.
Remember what was said in the past by the media, “It’s not if its true or not, but the seriousness of the charges”. Dan Rather.
So the homos all have to take cold showers together?
Rape is where you stay away from a drinking/clothing/sex-innuendo situation and someone forces you anyway, without any come-on involved. Anything else is just being willingly in a risky situation and taking the hits as they come. CT behavior gets its just reward.
White males fighting back? I must be dreaming.
