It seems that as soon as I think I’ve been doing this long enough that nothing can shock me anymore, the people of this world get even more repulsive.
Case and point: a man in Arizona was just arrested for raping his girlfriend while she was unconscious, and streaming the rape live via webcam (h/t problemchylde).
The suspect is 20-year-old Johnathon Richard Hock from Surprise, Arizona. According to Detective Homes with the Phoenix Police Department, a 20-year-old woman came to police in the beginning of March and said she had been sexually assaulted about a week before.
The woman told police she had received information from her friends that there was a video on a website that showed her having sex with a man. In the video, which took place at around 4 a.m. local time and was apparently recorded in her bedroom, the woman appears to be unconscious. She told police that the man was known to her and said the two had been dating for about two weeks prior to the incident.

Homes said that investigators believe the video came from a webcam at the location where the sexual assault took place and was initially streamed live on a website. It was then posted as a video to the page. Homes could not say which website was used to stream the video but several profiles on Stickam, where users can broadcast videos live, showed a person with the same name, location and photos similar to Hock. Photos from the video had reportedly showed up on at least one other website.
