What is not true and I just beg you to find it somewhere that a pregnant women is attacked at a football game in a parking lot while sitting in traffic in full view of others and NO one, no cop, no bystander, no good samaritan offers assistance or calls or runs for help. No one. And the victims never received any protection from WVU, from the campus police, from the Morgantown police, State mounties no one.


I absolutely agree with what you are saying, but I parked in the Purple Lot earlier this year for the Marshall game. It holds at maximum 25-30 vehicles, is a good walk from the stadium, and is not very well lit. If the people who were attacked stayed until the end of the game, which most LSU fans did, there is a very real possibility that while exiting the purple lot there were no cars in the close vicinity. When we left the Marshall game it was dark and there wasn't a car within 100 feet of us the entire time coming down the driveway from the lot. You can see the street here coming down from the small lot on the right.



You can say a lot of things about West Virginians, but I honestly know that no one would just sit there and watch a man and his pregnant wife be assaulted. It is much more likely that there was no one in the immediate area when the situation started and thus the delayed response.

Hoping we can get some more information soon so the truth can be known and I have been praying for the family.

If this is true - 1) No lighting 2) no security
= BIG lawsuit.

I'm not so ready to just throw blame on everyone here, but reports are that they were stopped in traffic and that the wife was begging for someone to help. There were definitely people there that didn't rush to help. But that's society today, we hope that someone would help, we hope that we would step up, but not everyone would. I'm sure there are people that hate themselves today.
