A teenager helped snare the man who tried to rape her after she managed to record the brutal assault on her mobile phone.

Student Lillian Constantine, 18, can be heard screaming and pleading with her attacker on the two-minute 47-second clip, recorded on her Samsung as she walked home in Ramsgate, Kent.

It is thought to be the first time ever that a victim's own footage of an entire attack has helped put a rapist behind bars.

It may be PC, but the ‘cure’ the family advocates
is mostly a grab-bag of group entitlement.


Constantine family now want a raft of measures to help boost rape conviction rates.

They say first responders should always be female when the victim is a woman and that rape-trained officers should be available at all times on a rota system.

More sexual assault referral centres should be available, regardless of whether a police complaint has been made, and a database should be created where victims can report attacks anonymously.

Most importantly, they say any cuts to women’s services should be halted.

....Might not it have been if she would have stopped the assault with some placed bullet holes...

Except, this is Merry ole’ gun free England. This vermin will probably head for a US sanctuary City when he finishes his prison sentence.

Guns are highly illegal in the UK - had she done what you said that she would have been tried and sentenced to many years in prison ... if the perp victim lived

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Highly illegal” in most U.S. states, for an 18 year old.

Tick-Tock. I won't be of the ones to start it but I will certainly be one to keep it going.

Our enemies have kindly stood up and identified themselves...for now, it's just a matter of taking notes.

“That’s what happens when you let a bunch of gray-haired women in the 40s run a country.”

Some of us think that sometimes, you have to give the young ones a chance. (Assuming you meant “in their 40s”.)

No issue with women in ‘their’ 40s doing anything. It’s the gray hair that gives away the fact they you don’t want them around your kids.
