Gang rape suspects wear bullet proof vests to arraignment

http://www.cnn.com/2009/CRIME/10/29/california.rape.victim.friend/index.html

All three juveniles, who wore bulletproof vests at the hearing, were charged as adults. A fourth individual, Manuel Ortega, 19, appeared separately without an attorney and did not enter a plea. He did not wear a protective vest. Another adult who was arrested has a different court date.

As many as 10 people were involved in the assault in a dimly lit back alley at the school, police have said. Another 10 people watched, without calling 911, police said.

4. I hope the courts give the victim at least that much protection, generally speaking

I don't know if she's in any real danger of being killed in order to shut her up, but I hope the court doesn't leave her to the wolves.

5. Everybody please be careful out there.

Animals like this are a lot more common in our society than anybody wants to admit. It is our laws and way of life that prevents them from doing what they would do if they were unrestrained.
Once you are in a dark place and/or secluded, things can turn very ugly with people you wouldn't expect it from. It does happen, and frequently.
Try not to let yourself be in that kind of situation.
