A known party house. The sister of one of the girls said on 20/20 that it had been a party house since before they moved in.

What does a known party house mean?

There are houses in college towns that just turn over from one group of hosts to another each year—the houses themselves are usually rented as one big unit, often have a high # of bedrooms and some jammed in baths. This one looks newer than the ones in Ann Arbor, but the phenomenon is 100% familiar and no one who has lived in a town like this is confused by what “party house” means.

Interesting! Thank you for taking the time to explain. I'm an older poster and honestly had never heard that term.

Np. For example, my freshman year, I became friends with some people who lived at "The Oak St House." They had parties every weekend. When 2 of them moved out, the other two were looking for roommates, so my best friend and I moved in. Residents always turned over like that... Friends from the party scene taking over leases, parties continued.

PP here who asked. Thanks for this description. All new to me!

It’s really important to the question of what the roommate saw and what she probably inferred, too. To be clear, if the reporting so far is accurate, she says she was terrified by this man—not that she thought he was a hookup or w/ev. But the background fact that houses of this size in college towns are often effectively revolving-door setups helps to explain how an element of rationalization (/denial) could have been working in her mind as well.

This policecam video shows what was typical at their party house. This is the second police visit in the same day for noise complaints. Maddy didn't even mention to Xana that the police were there for a noise complaint earlier. The extra people in the house don't live there. Xana is the only tenant home at the time. People came and went. The layout with the front and back doors made it even harder to keep track of what was going on at the house.

That's a very dangerous setup.

I lived in a house like that. One of my roommates fell asleep on the couch. He woke up to a man that another roommate had just hooked up with going through the living room to rob us. My roommate was a recent ex-Army guy then attending college, and he knocked the stranger down and threw him out. But the other roommate hooked up with 2-3 randos a month and it was a common thing for strange men to be in the house.

One of my room mates, long ago, was federal law enforcement and brought her weapon home. Her then room mate had randos over all the time, and she had to move out because she never knew who was going to be in the kitchen the next morning. So dangerous!

Sad and scarey that some people live this way (not describing the victims).

Women who often invite random men (strangers) to stay over. As described in previous post (not referring to audio victims).

It may have been left unlocked per usual, or it may have been left unlocked by a visitor, or a drunk visitor or a drunk tenant. There is no saying. Plus, it is always important to have multiple safeties in place for any sliding doors, including alarms.

I lived in a house in college with a bunch of people and we never locked our doors. So stupid but we were young and caught up in college life.

If I thought my college kid lived in an unlocked group house, I’d say “back to the dorm”, or no more funding. Why support this kind of stupidity? The potential consequences are too high to risk. I wouldn’t care how safe the town is.

Privileges demand basic responsibility.

You are kidding yourself if you think dorms are very different. Doors get propped open and people piggyback on key cards all the time.

This is large public U for ya. And ignorant public U parents will scream til their blue in the face living off-campus is awesome and teaching your kids how to be adults.

Well I went to a public U and lived off campus and nothing like this ever happened. It all depends on your kid and the roommates they choose.

This really isn’t typical for women. I was in a sorority at a large public university and we all either lived in-house or in apartments with 2-3 girls where we rarely had parties. No girls wanted the mess of parties and people in and out of their house like that. For boys though, this setup was typical.

Which sort of says a lot about these girls, again, not victim blaming, just pointing out facts.

OMG. So many people here saying they had similar party house experiences and you saunter in to disparage the girls and say no, everyone is wrong.

Your experience was different. It's ok.

Can hardly believe that posters like you are acting like it's a safe lifestyle.

No one’s saying it’s safe. They’re saying that it’s pretty common for college students to think they’re invincible.

He’s not rational. Clearly.

And it wouldn't matter. Locking doors only stops the casual intruder. The only thing stopping a determined attacker, is a 24 hour armed guards.

FFS. Victim blame much?

Guess what? Choices do matter

It sounds heartless, but I sort of agree. I’m not “victim blaming” but sometimes our poor choices and decisions lead to dire consequences.

Their parents all probably thought, look at our kids, so well rounded, off to college, very popular, they can handle themselves!

These kids had noise complaints and police contact frequently. They had people in and out all the time. They probably left the doors unlocked!

Let’s face it: kids this age make really, really stupid choices, and their parents happily find it, because look at my successful, popular kid!

Oh yeah, you are definitely victim blaming. And projecting quite a lot, I might add.

No one deserves to be stalked, then murdered in their sleep by an incel (or anyone else, for that matter).

+1000

So true. Now figure out how to stay as safe as possible in this imperfect world in which violent people are walking around.

That's an impractical view of risk management.

"As safe as possible" is impractical?

Yes. If you wanted to stay “as safe as possible” you would never go to college or live on your own. You would never drive a car. [/quote

You're overthinking words. But feel free to do whatever

I lived in a house in college with a bunch of people and we never locked our doors. So stupid but we were young and caught up in college life.

If I thought my college kid lived in an unlocked group house, I’d say “back to the dorm”, or no more funding. Why support this kind of stupidity? The potential consequences are too high to risk. I wouldn’t care how safe the town is.

Privileges demand basic responsibility.

+1 Thank you for your reasonable response. It's absurd that people defend this lifestyle instead of considering the safety of others going forward.

Saying that it exists and defending it are different.
