ULM Student Accused of Rape

LINK /

A University of Louisiana Monroe student is facing one count of second degree rape in connection with an August incident.

According to an arrest report filed by the ULM Police Department for Samuel Hudgens, 18, Pollock, a complaint was filed with campus police around 3 p.m. Thursday.

The affidavit states a female student told officers she was raped by Hudgens, a person she knew since high school, while watching a movie in his dorm room.

She said Hudgens began kissing her, and she said there would be no sex. According to the report, the victim told officers he repeatedly attempted to remove her pants before raping her.

The victim reported she told the suspect to stop approximately 20 times.

The affidavit states the victim told her mother, father, sister and a college counselor about the incident within one to three weeks.

It states the arrest officer reviewed screen captures where the suspect discussed the reported rape, apologized and asked for the incident to not be reported.

The victim said she was coming forward because she suffers from bad dreams of the incident and its impact on her mental health.

Hudgens declined to give a statement prior to arrest.

He was booked into Ouachita Correctional Center on the second degree rape charge late Thursday. Bond has not been set.





My question (and I am not blaming her at all) is why didn't she get up and leave?
