They failed to refer to it as rape, and it wasn't an empirical source saying it - just a neighbor. Still, the fact that it made it in - progress.

“Upon first learning of those allegations, we took prompt and appropriate action consistent with the best interests of our students, which included swiftly terminating the individual and fully cooperating with law enforcement authorities"

This is still wrong. Someone accused of rape should not be immediately fired or immediately anything :-/

It is only in the last decade or so women have been called to account for this. How long had they been getting away with it before?

You know, ever since I installed the Dictionary of Numbers plugin for Chrome, these reduced sentences have become even more ridiculous.

Because it's integrated seamlessly into my browser, this is what I saw:
