Mar. 6th, 2008 04:15 pmAn appalling article about rape in the military. I don't understand why this isn't on the front page of every paper in the country. I even know what the headline should be:
And it should stay on the front pages until something serious is done about it.
Damn it.
Makes you think, huh? And this is after the army made a big effort to raise awareness about their "zero-tolerance" policy for rape. Yeah. Right. I am so disgusted.

Airman 1st Class Cassandra Hernandez, 20, says three of her fellow airmen gang-raped her during a late-night party at Pope Air Force Base in Fayetteville, N.C., in May 2006. She says she reported the incident and sought all of the help available to her. Nonetheless, she wrote in a letter to the governor of Texas, her native state, “I felt like no one was looking out for my interests.”
Hernandez says she stopped cooperating with the investigation when charges were filed against her for “lewd behavior” and “underage drinking.” The three men accused of gang raping her were offered testimonial immunity in exchange for cooperating with the prosecution.
