    Fuck, this is high up on the list of the most intense things I've read in the news.

    • Even if this guy gets away with it.. he's clearly not ever going to get away with it. This will stain his life - hopefully more so than that of his poor victim.detritus
    • this photo is way different from his arrest photo http://bit.ly/1Oc3YC…robotron3k
    • fucked up that 'rape culture' is still a thingFax_Benson
    • Why isn't his arrest photo being used?
      The PR friendly version also makes me angry. But I'm not sure it'd get the same reaction and outcry.

    • It took a few days for the news to get his arrest photo. I think. They used this first, as it was available online. I think.nb
    • I hope he gets raped in prison

      yes I said it.
      fuck him.

      in the ass.

    • read her victim statement, the one thing that struck me was that he asked her if he can finger her and she said yes. But of course she was too drunk to give_niko
    • consent. Can he not say the same thing? he was too drunk to know what he was doing? a drunk driver is still responsible for his actions, why is a drunk girl not_niko
    • i didn't read the whole story, if she was passed out and he as sober and took advantage of her that's one thing, but if they were both drunk and having a good_niko
    • time, then why is he solely responsible for his actions? Especially if she gave him the green light. Not trying to blame her and I think the kid's a bit of a_niko
    • douche, and I probably have my facts wrong but it seems to me that a 6 month sentence is fair?_niko
    • I doubt she was having a good time on the ground, behind a dumpster with her dress pulled up, pine needles in her hair and fingers in hermonospaced
    • @_niko I think you mis-read her statement. HE CLAIMS that she said yes, while she claims to have no memory of any of it.nb
    • He was caught on top of her, she was passed out, not moving, pine needles and dirt in her hair, and she was bleeding from minor wounds. When caught, he ran.nb
    • So, we can probably assume she didn't consent to any of that. Are they both responsible? NO. If someone is passed out in the dirt & bleeding, DON'T FINGER THEM.nb
    • yeah you're right, I read it again_niko

    • Glad that the tourists at least stepped in and saved her. Such an awful story. I'm heading out to the Stanford campus for work and keep thinking about this.stoplying
