South Carolina Woman Outraged at Alleged Pursuer's Senate Candidacy
Fox ^

Posted on 06/10/2010 4:08:30 PM PDT by Chet 99

-snip-

Greene has not entered a plea or been indicted in the alleged incident, which could carry a prison sentence of up to five years.

The young women said that "sometime in late October," Greene sat down next to her inside a basement computer lab, which is only accessible to students and faculty, and asked if she liked football.

"I could tell immediately that he [Greene] didn't fit in with the other students because he was much older," she told FoxNews.com.

When McCoy responded, Greene allegedly said, "Well, look at my screen," and then proceeded to show her dozens of pornographic images.

McCoy said she told Greene that the images were "offensive" and "not funny," to which he allegedly replied, "Let's go back to your room."

The university's incident report, obtained by FoxNews.com, says Greene allegedly asked for the young woman's name, room number and phone number.

McCoy reported the incident a few days later on Nov. 4.

“If that’s all he did, he’s a veritable saint in comparison to 99% of the Democrats out there”

Hence doesn’t warrant even a passing remark by the MSM.

“Some kind of shock takes affect and they cannot *not* look.”

That’s horse manure and you know it... Or you should.

I've seen it. In fact I've done it. The shock wears off quickly, more so for some than others.

There is another effect, might be especialy strong for a young girl, and that is not wanting to make a scene.

In this case, someone thought the charge credibile enough to file it.

Dozens? Must not have had too much of a problem with it initially...

"I'm innocent until proven guilty."

Greene's campaign slogan.

How could he show her “dozens” of images if she didn’t want to see them.

Perhaps the images were thumbnail size, so that a dozen or more may have fit on the screen. Alternately, the pictures may have started out somewhat tame (let's say equivalent to PG-13) but then went to R and finally to XXX.

Can somebody tell me how this is any different to what Bill Clinton did to Paula Jones, Jaunita Broaddrick, Kathleen Willey etc?

I agree, after the first image why didn’t she just get up and walk away? Also she stayed long enough so he could ask for her phone number and name? WTF?

Could very well be. Years ago in Delaware we had the case of an optometrist who would take out his penis and place it into the hands of women who were looking into the device they use to check your vision. He did it dozens of times until two of the women, who were acquaintances, got together and started talking about their experience. It appears that no one wanted to "make a scene" and that's how he managed to get away with it for so long.

Sometimes we get scared. And don’t know how to respond, or move.

Some see young women as all trashy hardened manipulators, but you know, some are not. You may find this hard to believe, but when young women are assaulted, if they are the naive and/or innocent type, they sometimes just go blank.

Yes, it is embarrassing to have someone do that to you.

From indecent exposure all the way to rape, a lot of sex crimes are unreported for a variety of reasons.

Before I decide that this woman eagerly looked at 12 photos, I’d need to hear her side of the story.

Actually, some of the responses here: “she was mad he didn’t call her,” “she must have enjoyed looking at the first 11,” are good examples of WHY sexual assault victims don’t come forward.

Yes, but don't get me wrong: minus physical coercion, an adult woman has a responsibility and a duty to resist that kind of thing. It doesn't excuse the perp, but failure to act doesn't ennoble the victim.

In this case do you think she didn’t resist?

She left after about 12 pics (thumbnails? progressively worse? I don’t know), she didn’t go anywhere with him, she reported it to the police after thinking about it for a while.

Myself, I’d be afraid to report this just because I wouldn’t want a weirdo mad at me. If convicted he wouldn’t get much of a penalty, and then I’d be stuck at a school with a weirdo with an agenda.

I’d have to think about it, too. Honestly I don’t know if I’d have turned him in. Maybe if there was a tension in the room like he was going to get physical.

"(not to mention "then" and "than")"

First of all I am not a grammar Nazi and I am the world's worst typist besides being the queen of typos but misusing then and than drives me crazy!That and the people who spell voila as walla. That is an onion not a french word for see here.

So this girl is a college student so this did not involve a minor? Then I have to think that this is a he said she said? Is she one of those females who gets really bent out of shape about porn?I wonder if he just wasn't using their wifi for free while browing online and she saw what he was looking at and was offended and decided he'd "assaulted" her later? Charges like these are really stupid IMHO because they devalue what real sexual assault means. I'm female BTW.

If someone did that to me I would not make a scene but I would make him scream really loud so everyone could hear and when they ran in I’d be sure to let them know exactly what he had done and why he was screaming! :)

I think that's precisely the thing that ought to be done.
