Woman sues UF fraternity brothers for videotaping sexual encounter

[Kevin]

If everyone could help me police this thread, I'd appreciate it if you report anything which might help identify this woman. I think that she's entitled to her privacy. If she truly was damaged, I would hate to add to any of that by being a party to further publication of something which is ordinarily a very private thing.

If we can't keep things under control, I'll have to delete the thread.

I can't tell you what the law is in Florida. I'm just not going to take a chance. I know her name is accessible, and that's fair game I guess, but I'm not going to add to this girl's worries by facilitating further intrusion into her private life. Thanks for your cooperation.

Or you could move it to News and Politics and not have to deal with it.

And what Senusret I said.

Whatever, Kevin. Thanks for removing the links.

Good thing people know how to search Facebook and MySpace on their own. That, you cannot moderate.

I think it's a reasonable RM issue.

I remember a nearby chapter of my organization having an issue like this in the 90's which did some serious damage to their chapter.

All I can control is this forum.

Search Myspace and Facebook to your heart's content.

Thank God for that.

Back in the day, our pledges were instructed to never go up to a guy's room in a fraternity house. I'm thinking we were onto something there . . .

In the past I've cautioned New Members about fraternity guys, especially the ones that prey on the fresh meat.

Still, given the date and the girl's age now, it seems like she was a (naive) UCF freshman who went to a frat party at UF.

Thank you for some sane commentary. The guys were stupid to tape this, but she was stupid too- and she is stupid now to try and get some money when she should be hanging her head in shame. I am amazed someone on this thread actually suggested this could be considered rape- get real.

I had to go back and re-read the thread because I missed the suggestion that it could be considered rape.

The article says the sex was consensual. The sex was consensual, the taping of it was not.

I don't know WTF this girl's thinking...especially since she's Facebook buddies with homey on the left. Was it he who frat slammed her? (Frat slammed is not an inappropriate term, Kevin)

Ok, then: Ft. Lauderdale Sun-Sentinel, Palm Beach Post, Chicago Times... yada, yada, yada. First of all, this was not a sex crime. So the girl has no statutory right to have her name withheld. Further, SHE chose to go public with a frivolous lawsuit.

Her name is okay. Other details which are not already in major media sources or gleaned from court records are not okay.
