Here is another site organized by victims of sexual assault at UVA

This will only make sense if you have taken some time to read some of the links I posted.....
but I think with its history...UVA is entirely capable of forcing victims to downplay their assault, agree to settle in civil court or drop the charges entirely, and never speak of it again. I also think they are capable of "covering their tracks". And I think they have enough people, power, and money in their back pockets to have things "taken care of."
And I seriously wonder....if this ambivalence to sexual violence that seems to be a reoccurring theme for UVA...and perhaps Cville ( http://www.readthehook.com/102589/county-cop-arrested-rape-charges-media-blocked )....might have not only "influenced" the severity with which JM viewed many of his actions toward women, but might have very well "enabled" him.

Great question. Thank you
(Afterthought - this may well be OT, but perhaps not if we're discussing how communities handle sexual assault and how it allows perps to minimize their own actions._
Unfortunately, it's not just UVA and it's probably not just Virginia. Look at JM's own record, with LU and CNU.
James Madison University in Harrisonburg just had this case:
"Butters claims three Sigma Chi Fraternity brothers pulled off her bathing suit top during a spring break trip to Florida last year. She said the men used cell phones to record the incident and then passed the recording around to others.
Butters said her case went before the university’s judicial panel, which opted for “expulsion after graduation,” which means the three will be banned from campus after they graduate, according to WHSV.
She said two of the men graduated in May, but that the other can return in the fall if he so chooses."
Later in the article:
"U Va. and the College of William and Mary are also being investigated by the Department of Education."

Ok so I came across something the other day, something I hadn't noticed before...I was looking at the the Civil Cases related to Jesse Matthew, originally posted by generalissimo (thank you, thank you!), in the timeline thread #9
He has three court appearances for "Garnishments (Wages)" and five for "Warrant in Debt" - I'm no lawyer so I did research on " Warrant in Debt" and basically its a fancy way of saying being sued for money the the plaintiff feels is owed.
Personally I have never been sued, and I can't think of too many people I know who have been sued...let alone sued EIGHT times btw Aug of 2009 and Jan of 2014....EIGHT times in only FIVE years! Does that strike anyone as odd?
Ok for now I am just going to focus on the five "Warrant in Debt" suits, they are as follows
*Civil Cases Against Jesse Matthew which involved "Warrant in Debt" (aka being sued):
- Aug 19, 2008: Warrant in Debt - ($894.29) - Plaintiff- UVA Health Services Foundation
- June 23, 2009: Warrant in Debt - ($2,293.20) - Plaintiff - Martha Jefferson Hospital
- Jan 12, 2012: Warrant in Debt - ($1,968.80) - Plaintiff - The University of Virginia
- Oct 18, 2012: Warrant in Debt - ($3,027.73) - Plaintiff - The University of Virginia
- April 16, 2013: Warrant in Debt - ($1,550) - Plaintiff - The University of Virginia
Did you guys notice the Plaintiffs?
Why oh why was big powerful UVA suing a little local like JM? Repeatedly?
Why was he still employed within their system up to the very day the charges where filed in the HG case?
What can you possibly think of, that is hard to "prove" in criminal courts, but some monetary restitution may be had in civil court?
Is it possible, those suits are sexual assault allegations against JM? Ones in which UVA helped the victim "settle" in civil court for "medical expenses".
Interesting the other two Plaintiffs, UVA Health Services Foundation and Martha Jefferson Hospital are also part of UVA.
Oh my god, if that where true...I think I'm going to be sick!
I'm wondering if any of those charges, especially the 2009 one from MJ Hospital could have been related to the assault & battery charges that were dropped on the condition that JM pay for the victim's medical expenses. The victim could have gone to MJ Hospital for care. Just a thought...
I really encourage everyone to click on this link and spend a few minutes reading through this page:

Its one mothers account of dealing with UVA when her daughter was assaulted. And she touches on a lot of really interesting things. Its worth a look.
I think it might give you guys another lens, with which to view these charges.
Granted we can't prove what exactly these civil suits stemmed from....but it might give you "reasonable doubt" to be slightly more suspicious of how he acquired them.
You need to look into UVA and rape and mishandling....its a big problem, that's been blasted by media. So I'm not spouting gossip or rumors...I've already linked 3 things...and there is plenty more.
....and never once has a male been expelled from UVA on the grounds of sexual assault.
I wish we could do this for NY, DC, PA, & MD since he was known to spend time there. I am especially interested in placing him in NY on certain dates. I also wonder if the cab was used to transpost drugs from NY. JM has so many traffic violations in VA, I would bet a cup of coffee that there are more in states he visited. I am willing to start researching NY if someone can pont me in the right direction. Thanks. MOO
Very interesting.
I have trouble though imagining JM as part of a secret society as waspy as the skulls and bones?
(You know that whole decents of plantation owners, mixing with the decents of their slaves, in a highly secretized club that need around for over a decade)
Any theories along this line? Even if it sounds crazy....
I may be wrong, but I am not reading nearly as much into all the 'skull and bones' descriptions of remains as many of you are. I don't see JLM as part of any secret society, and doubt he has ever heard of any of them. I don't think there was any great ritual done beyond just murdering and dumping, and I believe nature created the skull and bones. I think when you see decomposed remains, a skull is very obviously a skull, unless it has been bludgeoned badly, and what is left is pretty much bones. I think the average person would describe such remains as a skull and bones. JMO
Symbolism. Plain site.
David Bass had been chairman of the zoning board for a long time. Some African Americans have had land lost in the flood of the Rivanna River land to make the reservoir, and others were not allowed to develop their land on Shackelford mountain near Anchorage Farm, so lost money. Some of the historic AA downtown buildings n Vinegar were take over to form the downtown mall. There have been hard feelings over all this on top of the slavery issue in and around Charlottesville. JM's use of George Carr when he was apprehended brings all these grievances to mind, to the forefront and possibly reveals a reason MH was left at Anchorage Farm.
