Three U.S. Marines were arrested and booked in New Orleans Thursday and Friday (April 27) on rape charges, after two women reported to police that they were raped by a group of men earlier this month.
Antonio Landrum, 18, was booked with third-degree rape, Jared Anderson, 18, was booked with first-degree rape, and Alexander Davenport, 20, was booked with two counts of first-degree rape, according to court records.
The suspected rapes occurred April 15 at one of the women's homes in the 6100 block of South Claiborne Avenue, according to police. A Tulane University campus alert sent out shortly after the crimes were reported said the women were a Tulane student and her "guest."
The two women were at a bar in the 1000 block of Broadway Street on April 14 when they became "highly intoxicated," according to police and affidavits for the men's arrest warrants. Video surveillance from the bar showed one of the women stumbling, appearing to be "moderately intoxicated/impaired," while the other woman fell on the ground and was "highly intoxicated/impaired," the warrant affidavit says.
One of the women said she remembered leaving the bar and going back home with her friend and a man, who police identified as Landrum.
Landrum had sex with both of the women, according to the warrant affidavits. Some parts of the court documents describe the sex as "consensual," but the documents also say that Landrum "forced" sex with the women, that one of them asked him to stop but he didn't, and that she shoved him away.
According to the warrant documents, Landrum then invited three male friends to the home.
One of the women said one of the men who arrived, identified by the victim in a later photo lineup as Davenport,

No, I was at Tulane Law school...then returned for a job.
The Marine had to be sober because he is underaged.
Use to be when woman wanted sex they’d go to a bar, drinking and appearing drunk so they can say they were taken advantage amongst one another and save a little face.... Still works today.....
Sober? It’s New Orleans. I’m not proud of it but my boy has been going to clubs and sometimes drinking in clubs since he was 17. It’s a long story so don’t ask but I did not approve.
“Those boys are going to do some time!”
In Louisiana, they send you to The Farm.
"Impairment" is a broad category - but I'm sure we agree that if she isn't actively participating nor giving coherent verbal assent, one is no more entitled to have sex with her than to take the contents of her wallet.
But today you have to have consent. You can’t get consent from a woman falling all over the place, drooling all over herself. These guys are probably going to jail.
The video proves that is not the case. Read the article.
Maybe they were doped with date rape drug- has same affect as being “highly intoxicated”.

The difference is that, back then, women generally didn't get the guy prosecuted for rape. It was understood that it was their own fault for getting that drunk.
True....still is their fault as far as I’m concerned. Women just don’t want to understand there’s a difference between the sex’s.....instead they want men to be like them!
To assuage her shame she blames others.
I’m sure it’s nicer on the inside...
No, but it’s a great dive bar.
It often makes list of one of the best dive bars in the country.
It’s dive dive, not faux dive.
LOL!
lets see, drunk slutty marines go to bars and slip drugs into girls drinks and then take them home and rape them, and invite other men to do the same...
oh, yeah, the war on boys and men...I forgot...
