Duke student arrested for rape also faces charge for gay assault!
This is the first report I've seen on this, but apparently one of the Duke University students arrested and accused of rape is also accused of an assault on a gay American in D.C.!


(Durham, North Carolina ) One of two Duke University students charged Tuesday with raping a female dancer also is accused of an attack on a gay man in Washington DC.

University lacrosse players Collin Finnerty and Reade Seligmann were arrested early Tuesday and charged with first degree rape, first degree sexual offense and kidnapping.

Bond for each was set at $400,000.

Finnerty, of Garden City, N.Y, is already facing an assault charge in Washington DC, the Durham Herald-Sun reported on Tuesday.

The charge stems from an incident on Nov 5 in which a gay man was attacked by three men in the Georgetown area of the district.

The victim in his report to police said that the three assailants hurled homophobic remarks while they beat him. He suffered a cut lip and multiple bruises.

3. So much for the white (man´s) lie: my rights end where your nose begins.
Of course history proves this with the genocide of American Indians and the current rape of the Middle East.
