Rapists, Beware: Detroit Prosecutor IDs 21 Attackers in ‘Rape Kit’ Investigation
“Kym Worthy has identified 21 serial rapists so far in a sweeping investigation that could have national implications. Abigail Pesta reports on the crusade to eliminate the rape-kit backlog.
Twenty-one serial rapists have been identified in a massive investigation led by Detroit prosecutor Kym Worthy—and her manhunt has only just begun.”
UM HELLO WORLD THIS IS REALLY IMPORTANT
GO GET EM
HELL FUCKING YES
fuck the system, wall street
Did he really fondle her breast? Please tell me he did NOT fondle her breast! WHAT THE HOLY FUCK????
How insulated must a person feel from the consequences of their actions if they are willing to sexually assault a person surrounded by, like, a million cameras?
GodDAMN, fuck the pigs.
Uh are you kidding me? This is the dumbest, most misleading example of sexual assault. She is obviously causing a scene and these officers are trying their best to subdue her. There are many (too many in my opinion) cases of unreported sexual assault and calling this assault is insulting to actual victims
Are you fucking kidding me? Do they have to be groping her fucking tits to subdue her? Get real, nigga.

Last night I innocently glanced through this magazine and was confronted with possibly the most disgusting and alarmist, “But what about the men?!” article about rape I’ve ever read. Things like this make me unable to think rationally so here are a few thoughts:
- Few things disgust me like the bizarre fantasy of this world in which false rape allegations are common. How many men do you know who have been falsely accused of rape? Because I know zero, and I know MANY women who have been raped. And by the way, as far as I know, none of those women ever pressed charges.
- To the woman who said: “If I were sending off a son to college right now, I’d be very concerned.” If you think you raised the type of man to have sex in shady as hell circumstances and/or with incapacitated women, you should be concerned. Also, I hope for her hypothetical sake that you do not have a daughter, so that you are not more afraid about a son’s trip to the dean’s office than a daughter’s you know… actual rape.
- “Those Clery Act reports contradict Joe Biden’s claim of an epidemic. Take Temple University. There are 30,000 students at its main campus on North Broad Street. The student body is 55 percent female, so if the one-in-five DOJ figure for sexual assaults is correct, 3,180 of the current female students would have been sexually assaulted while at the school. And yet Temple’s Clery Act report shows five sexual assaults in 2007, two in 2008, and two in 2009.” Wow, I guess I can’t argue with this. No woman in history has ever chosen not to report a rape and subject herself to the character assassination that goes along with it! Wait, what about all the friends I just mentioned?! I guess my experience is an anomaly!
- “Deborah Nolan says that in 25 years at Ursinus, she’s heard a ton of sexual assault stories, and only one didn’t involve alcohol. Drinking lowers inhibitions: “Sometimes we want to be coaxed into things. But it makes people irate when you say that.” I…..
Just read it yourself. Every single bit is horrible. The editor of Philadelphia magazine can be reached here.
What the actual fuck.
I have been falsely accused of rape (a rumor we still can’t find the origin of, as the girl in question didn’t start it and denied it to everyone from the time she heard it). It’s still not an epidemic. MRAs seem to live under the delusion that it is, but it’s definitely not. Far too many of the women I know have been assaulted and none of their assailants have seen justice. That’s a fucking problem. False accusations are clearly a bad thing, but they are beyond rare. They’re not even an issue worth addressing more than a simple blanket condemnation. To pretend like they’re the real issue here is disgusting, and Philadelphia Magazine should be fucking ashamed.
Some of the biggest names in American retail have been linked to a Jordanian garment factory that allegedly rapes, tortures, and abuses its female workers, according to a report by the Institute of Global Labour and Human Rights, formerly known as the National Labor Committee. In a petition on Change.org, the human-rights organization accuses supervisors at Classic Factory, which supplies clothing to Walmart, Target, Macy’s, Kohl’s, Hanes, and Land’s End, of sexually assaulting dozens of migrant workers from Sri Lanka and Bangladesh, most of whom are virtually imprisoned in dilapidated surroundings. “We only went to Jordan to earn money to help our families,” says a young woman who goes by the name “Nazma” to protect her identity. “We had no idea that factory managers would rape so many of us young girls.”
