This is so sad and unfortunate

She was a Theta and lacrosse player on the #4 ranked women's D-1 college lacrosse team (UVA) in the nation. Her alleged killer is a player on the #1 college men's D-1 lacrosse team (also UVA). Reports are that they were previously in a relationship. Regardless, so very, very sad.

Where is the can of worms that it opened?

What does that have to do with "opening a can of lacrosse worms"? We all knew they played lacrosse; it was stated in the first post, in the first article.

ETA: And...I should have read DrPhil's post that pretty much said the same thing. Oops!

There has been no mention of it, but does anyone know if he is a fraternity member?

This website alleges that he's a DKE.

Sorry to be blunt about it, but anyone who shares your sentiment in uninformed.

Yes, they had access to some very good lawyers. That was fortunate, since they were being railroaded by the district attorney, whose handling of the case led to his disbarment for, among other things, fraud, dishonesty, deceit or misrepresentation, making false statements of material fact before a judge, making false statements of material fact before bar investigators, and lying about withholding exculpatory DNA evidence. You can read the disbarment order here.

Yeah, you don't see rich boys getting a district attorney disbarred over nothing! That was a really sad and unfortunate incident that nearly ruined those students lives (and may still follow them.)

Thank you, MysticCat, for that.

My heart aches and I grieve for the families, for the University community, for everyone whose life is now altered forever by these losses. I am so frightened when I witness the anger and rage that I hear and see daily. So much suffering. Why?
