For an example, from the Revised Statutes of Missouri.
Chapter 566 and chapter 568 definitions.
566.010. As used in this chapter and chapter 568, the following terms mean:
(1) “Deviate sexual intercourse”, any act involving the genitals of one person and the hand, mouth, tongue, or anus of another person or a sexual act involving the penetration, however slight, of the male or female sex organ or the anus by a finger, instrument or object done for the purpose of arousing or gratifying the sexual desire of any person or for the purpose of terrorizing the victim.
566.060. 1. A person commits the crime of forcible sodomy if such person has deviate sexual intercourse with another person by the use of forcible compulsion. Forcible compulsion includes the use of a substance administered without a victim’s knowledge or consent which renders the victim physically or mentally impaired so as to be incapable of making an informed consent to sexual intercourse.
Other state statutes probably vary, but I am sure all this would be less than comforting to Ms. Logan.
What matters is that Lara Logan was sexually assaulted, that it was brutal, and that it was done by a horde of animals.
Do we really need explicit details? I don’t think so. It’s enough to know this woman was violated in ways no woman should be. Why must we be privy to any more of the lurid details?
And to accuse her of using this to increase her popularity or make it a career stepping stone — that’s a rather harsh judgment on her character which is NOT in evidence, at least not at this point. She said she wouldn’t speak further of it after this 60 Minutes interview. We shall see.
As to Ms. Logan personally, I knew little about her, though I generally see members of the Mainstream Media as less than friendly to me and my beliefs and convictions. One thing I am certain of now — Ms. Logan knows with no shadow of a doubt the potential evil in the hearts of human beings. She’s experienced it. Perhaps she’ll grapple with that reality in a way she never has before. I know I will pray for her.

Early reports were that she was bitten, poked with sharpened sticks, etc. The details are now hidden so as not to discredit O’s good friends, the revolutionaries.
They said it started as the camera’s battery was being changed. Debbie Schlussel really took her to task because they were yelling Jew, Jew, Jew...; but the reporter still won’t mention that the rapists were Muslim. The TV interview earlier this week, the reporter said she didn’t know that such violence was possible. Debbie also took her to task for that.
On the radio it was said that possibly hundreds of creatures molested her with their hands. Seriously that is horrible sexual battery even if you don’t feel it was rape. Fists and strong hands can do more damage than a penis. The poor woman.
Doncha just luv when the journos themselves are THE news?
Why do we need anything else, let’s have the news about the news,
and about the talking heads!
I didn’t watch the piece because I know better, but I am sure they failed to mention that they were screaming screw the Jew and allahu akbar at the same time. I am sure that some would consider that a story, but not 60 minutes....
So you wanted this poor woman to tell the world that these animals penetrated her with their penis so 12 years from now some punk can pull up a video and play it back to her children. I just don't think that you fully thought this all out.
Sounds like she was tortured in numerous ways for no particular reason. She should have just let the medical report speak for itself.
Rape is defined legally as the “commission of unlawful sexual intercourse or unlawful sexual intrusion.” Intrusion or penetration can be made by things other than a penis, apparently in this case hands or whatever these savages may have had in them.
Rape is anal ,oral, or vaginal penetration by any object.
Rape is anal ,oral, or vaginal penetration by any object.
Rape is forcible penetration. She was forcibly penetrated, but not with penises.
Debbie Schlussel has a very interesting take on it...
