re: Allegedly, Madison Brooks had sex the day before incident that caused that caused injuries

They are trying to defame her character in an attempt to get a hung jury. There have been posters on here in the various threads basically saying she got what she deserved by partying and having premarital sex outside of this incident. That it "caught up to her". This is a classic case of "she was asking for it" defense.

I don't even necessarily disagree that she probably didn't make the best decisions and unfortunately she's a cautionary tale that hopefully other young women can learn from. I'm glad Reggies got shut down, I was wondering how they've been able to get away with being what they were for so long even going back to when I was an LSU student. But that doesn't mean she's not a victim of a crime, nor did she "deserve" it.

If you leave your house or car unlocked and you get robbed, yeah there were precautions you could have taken that you chose not to or forgot to do, but that doesn't mean you "deserve" to get robbed or that you are no longer a victim, and if the thief gets caught they should be punished. Just like these guys got caught, it's on video, they should be punished.

College students have sex. That doesn't mean they can't be rape victims the day after. I don't see how this detail is relevant. She was so drunk she was on video leaving the bar barely able to stand by herself. Even if any injuries happened from a consensual encounter the previous day there's no way she could have consented to the act that happened in the car with video evidence.

To be honest, she kind of was asking for it. She was a flirty sorority chick who wanted to party and get wild. All she had to do was simply say no to the guys who asked her to come with them and none of this would have happened.
