Why not the bedrooms?

John in Carolina raised a pertinent point:

If you are going to rape someone, and have the cooperation or acquiescence of your entire
team, why head for a tiny bathroom?

The alleged victim says three men took her into the bathroom where thy brutally raped and choked her. She says she tried hard to fight them off.

Questions:

Have you and someone else ever helped a cooperative elderly or very ill person into a bathroom to shower?

Didn’t you have to be extremely careful and move very slowly lest you accidentally injure the person or yourselves by hitting one of the hard, angular, and large objects found within a bathroom, particularly a smallish one?

In order to avoid serious injury to any of you, didn’t you carefully plan and coordinate with the person and your helper every move you all made within the bathroom?

Nonetheless, all the while you knew the smallest accidental slip or bump could result in injury, didn’t you?

Did you think about getting a third person to help?

Did you reject that idea because a third person would’ve made things too crowded and harder for everyone to maneuver safely around the shower/tub, toilet, sink, medicine cabinet and towel rack?

Have you ever been asked to help a person who would resist a shower, say an Alzheimers patient with paranoid ideation?

Did you try to help; or did you reject the idea as simply too dangerous to the person and everyone else involved?

Did you think instead of a bedroom where you could give the person a sponge bath?

That would make a lot more sense, wouldn’t it?

The papers report the house at 610 North Buchanan Blvd. has three bedrooms.


Apparently all of the players were supposed to have known that a 30 minute struggle and rape
was taking place in the bathroom.

Apparently at least three other players helped separate the two dancers.

If that was so, why was the tiny bathroom selected as the locale for the rape? Surely
instead any of the bedrooms would have served better?

No one would have interrupted them.

And perhaps others would have wanted to join in?

Considered logically, the entire bathroom story would seem to fall apart.

Does this make sense?

The captains of a lacrosse team, hosting a party, call strippers. Within minutes of arrival two sophomores (neither of whom had yet to start a game) take a stripper into a bathroom for their own enjoyment, leaving the captains, starters, hosts - what? Watching cartoons?

Also note that NONE of the other people at the party seemed to have noticed that the only bathroom was out of service for half an hour.

Or that a battered, upset, raped, bruised stripper staggered by them on her way out.

Yeah, it could happen
.


(Neither did the second dancer notice anything wrong for half an hour--despite being forcibly separated from the other dancer? Nor did she think to use her cell phone to call for help? Or run to a neighbor? Or run across the street to Duke?)

Interesting that MSM doesn't seem to see any point in raising the matter although my local paper, The N&O, sure thought it was very important to tell readers one of the lacrosse players had been cited for having a open beer

Of course, we'll never get to see that bathroom now. The skeptical among Durham
residents could have tried to fit four persons inside, to see for themselves.

However, Duke--which had a duty to do all it could to help restore the reputations
of the falsely accused (which reputations were in no small way damaged by the innuendo
spread by Duke's own employees)--chose instead to destroy the evidence and make sure
it could never be seen.

And that, in itself, IMHO, could be cause for another suit.
