And to remove her clothes, clumsily, and so that her necklace was wrapped around her neck, and she was bare. NO WOMAN GOES BEHIND A DUMPSTER voluntarily, in any situation. He is going down, and will be the poster child for a culture shift against the rape culture. Get your lawyers ready, Brock, and while you're at it, a new passport if you can. This is going to be an epic case and you will never escape your "20 minutes of action". |
Palestinian in comparison to what will happen to him in jail, I |
Simmer down and put away that pitchfork. The guy has already been convicted! No woman would pass out outside behind a dumpster but Emily did. She walked herself back there and passed out. And it wasn't the first time that she had been behind that dumpster that night with her sister. So to say that no woman goes behind a dumpster voluntarily is not true in this particular situation. |
| For everyone saying he had zero history of this-- he did. Trial included the testimony of another girl her had gotten aggressive with at a party the prior week. Lots of touching and grabbing after she told him to go away. He's a serious sicko. |
Sorry! Figurative pitchfork is logical consequence of his action and if he didn't want it he shouldn't have gone behind the dumpster. |
| Why does it matter that he never raped before? He was 20 not 50! There's no history at that age. There is a first for every scumbag. |
That was actually introduced at trial? I thought that info of a past pattern wouldn't have been admissible unless it was used to impeach the defendant's testimony but Brock didn't testify so how were they able to introduce that at trial? |
He was 19. I agree that he was inexperienced. |
At raping. Super glad that he may not have the opportunity to become an "experienced" rapist. |
He wasn't convicted of rape. But I agree that it is good that the swedes interrupted him. |

He may have a history of coming onto girls at parties - who were awake, thinking, talking, socializing and able to say "no". He does not have a history of stalking and preying on passed out or soon to be passed out women. But go ahead and distort the truth to fit your theory that he would have become a serial rapist if given half a chance. |
He's had girlfriends before. Unless they were platonic, I presume he was sexually active |
Considering he sexually assaulted an unconscious woman - and met the federal definition of rape, if not California's, I wouldn't pretend he's so lily white. Considering the sad number of rape defenders on this board, I think it's safe to suggest there are not a few men who do this serially and think nothing of it. |
None of that comes in on a direct appeal. The only at issue during an appeal that can come in is a defect in the procedure of the trial. |
