Glad to hear this, now I'm hoping for a conviction. Kind of weird, but I had no clue this was going to happen today and I woke up wondering what the latest news was in the case. I came here and there it was, press release of charges brought. I think I caught the live presser, the Commonwealth...

I want to make sure I have this right; rape is bad and shouldn't happen except when someone deserves it?

Ok, so he wouldn't have gotten into CNU and that victim wouldn't have been a victim. But that wouldn't have stopped him from attacking others as we have seen. The post I quoted makes it sound like the schools set him free to rape again. There was no way the schools could stop him from doing...

What could the schools do? If the victims don't press charges I don't think there is anything more the school can do besides expel him. And if the victim presses charges she has to get a conviction for him to be guilty of rape. I'm not really sure why we are holding the schools responsible when...

I attended UVA orientation with my daughter. The parents and students are lectured about under age drinking. Unfortunately, these kids are adults and if they drink off campus the school has no authority over them. The students were warned that if they were caught by local LE drinking off campus...

I'm confused by comments, and I've seen a few now, regarding students at UVA being considered rich. UVA takes 70% of students from in state. My daughter is one of the 30% from out of state. We pay 3 to 4 times the tuition that a Virginia resident pays. I have seen students move into the dorms...

I can see LE giving an incorrect description and taking the focus off JM for a few reasons: As soon as they got JM's name downtown they ran it, got his address and description of his car. They put him under surveillance to see if he could lead them to Hannah or catch him getting rid of...

I thought the woman was holding sunglasses in her hand. And I didn't see anything in JM's hand afterward. He kind of holds his right hand up a few seconds afterward and it appears empty to me.

I was sitting here thinking what if he didn't kill her? What if he did just buy her a drink and drop her off at that corner? There were a lot of assaults in that area that weekend. What if someone else got her and killed her and dropped her body in those woods? Not that that would make JM...

Would bottles be thrown out or collected to return to the distributor? I think she sent it. I think she meant to say she was almost at 14th and Wertland because she and JM were leaving Tempo soon. I think the phone autocorrected to lost at 14th and Wertland. I think she was meeting people at...

That was interesting, but not because of the guy that gets up and goes in McGrady's. Hannah walked off camera, then a guy in shorts and a check shirt exits with a girl in dark pants and hoodie and they go in the same direction as Hannah. Then the 3 guys in the center of the patio start to look...

Don't know if this article about the FF hearing Fri. was already posted here: Insanity Bid? Experts See Bleak Options for Matthew http://wvtf.org/post/insanity-bid-ex...ptions-matthew

Not sure this belongs here because it pertains to the Fairfax hearing Friday, but it brings up psych evaluation. Insanity Bid? Experts See Bleak Options for Matthew http://wvtf.org/post/insanity-bid-experts-see-bleak-options-matthew

I will read that, thanks. If you're interested I had found these 2 studies. The first, which is from 1980 I think, was a study of convicted rapists in the Commonwealth of Virginia: Convicted Rapist's Vocabulary Of Motive Excuses And Justifications...

I don't know how many versions of the videos are out there, some may be edited shorter, but the Tuel video where Hannah is walking beside JM shows a white, middle aged male a few paces behind them and a group of young men behind him. At the time that video was first released the white middle...
