re: Deputies arrest 4 in LSU student Madison Brooks case

The defense may be that she drank more after they dropped her off.

For all you “never LSU!” assholes, keep that in mind. This happens on every campus. You just know about this one. If you think your daughters are safe from this somewhere else, you are dreaming

There isn't just one level of risk at all colleges. There are safer schools than LSU.

I'm not defending them, though.

That’s exactly what you did. You said it wasn’t rape and that it wasn’t their fault she was killed when the rapists dropped her in the middle of a 50 mph zone at a .3+ BAC

Don’t crawfish now

The problem with your post is, I'm not.

I'm saying many posters have done/supported the exact same rapist behavior and many of them have historically made posts supporting the behavior on this very message board.

Now, everyone is adding specific qualifications to avoid scrutiny of their own personal decisions in the past, to make this event so idiosyncratic it in no way related to the time they may have crossed the line.

I am not defending the alleged rapists. I'm calling many posters commenting on this story as if it's the end of the world, potential offenders.

We have a case where the victim’s BAC was 0.319 and the offenders picked her up, pulled over on the side of the road, and two of them took turns having sex with her while the other two sat in the front seat. At least two of the accused have already made statements to police admitting that she was drunk to the point of incoherence. One of them admitted to police that he thought it was wrong. The affidavit says she had injuries consistent with anal sexual assault.

You’re drawing a false equivalence between this scenario and all other cases where the girl’s ability to consent is remotely in question. If people interpret that as minimizing the crime, it’s because you are - by insinuating that people commenting are also rapists and that this is commonly accepted behavior.

And there are more dangerous schools that seem “safe.”

You could always send your daughter to a convent, I guess.

Dude, I’m just speculating on what the defense may be if it goes that far.

Years of experience have taught me that a lot of things seeming obvious aren’t so obvious.

Thankfully the statute is very clear that she can’t consent in this situation. Even if they have video allegedly showing she agreed—doesn’t matter

Which ones are they? It might be a good idea to avoid them as well.

Southern’s track record for violent crime isn’t great lately.
