My best friend was raped last night - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Kay Scarpetta · 07-11-2007, 05:13 PM

Ugh guys... this is horrible. I was at the movies last night with a friend when one of my best friends called me, hysterical. This kid that we know and had hung out with a few times forced her into the backseat of her car and raped her, then threatened to kill her several times if she ever told the cops and if I said something, said he'd "get me" too. She called me because she didn't know what to do, she wanted to go to the cops but was petrified. I left the movies right away and we went to the hospital to get a rape kit done, and they provided her with antibiotics incase the scum had an STD, and the morning-after pill incase he could have gotten her pregnant.

We were at the hospital from midnight-5:30 this morning, then the police station from 5:30-10 this morning to make statements and have CSI process her car. Because she called me first as well as me knowing the kid, I was the first complaintent... they had to take all my info, my SSN, my statement, so if this goes to court I'm going to be subpoenaed. We were able to give ample descriptions, first names/aliases, the street he lived on. He wasn't in any of the mugshots we looked at, but I really hope the cops pick this guy up and he goes to jail. My heart breaks for Britt, she's like my sister to me. This whole thing is a nightmare.

Please pray for both of us... mostly for her, but for me too. I've never been wrapped up in an investigation like this before and frankly, it makes me nervous... but I'm going to step up and do whatever I need to do to help her.

What a horrible thing to have to deal with, I am glad she has such a reliable and carryign friend to be there with her through this.

How old was the guy who did this? I really hope they throw the book at him but it is never enough to pay for the damage he has caused.

Your friend Britt will need tons of support and sounds like she already has alot from you. I hope you and Britt find all the strength you need during the recovery process.

Chelsea · 07-11-2007, 05:33 PM

Karly, you and your friend are in my thoughts and prayers. Your friend is going to need a lot to get through this, but you're a great friend, and having you there for her will go a long way.

(And I echo the sentiments of Senior in regards to what happens to the scumbag who did this)

Mr. Television · 07-11-2007, 05:37 PM

You and your friend are in my thoughts and prayers Karly. I hope they catch the animal and he fries.

GoldenGirlsFan92 · 07-11-2007, 05:56 PM

I'm sorry to hear this. I hope you & your friend, get better. I also hope they catch the creep who did this.

Already Gone · 07-11-2007, 06:00 PM

Karly, I'm sorry to hear what happened to your friend Britt. I will definitely keep you both in my thoughts and prayers. I'm with Senior on how the bastard should be dealt with.

Nighthawk76 · 07-11-2007, 06:01 PM

I'm very sorry.

What a terrible thing to have happened.

coffield3 · 07-11-2007, 06:02 PM

AB · 07-11-2007, 06:06 PM

This is such a terrible thing to have happen, hope she'll be ok.

Janice · 07-11-2007, 06:07 PM

Karly, you and Britt will both be in my prayers. This is going to affect her for the rest of her life, and you too. She's going to need all the support in the world. The creep will get caught, I'm sure. Imagine if this was a total stranger who was never caught. My God, what a heartbreaking story. I'm so sorry you're all going through this.

-*Forever*- · 07-11-2007, 06:37 PM

That's TERRIBLE. Oh my God. I will definitely pray for you both, and I hope the dickface gets what he deserves. I'm so sorry that this happened.

consentida · 07-11-2007, 07:50 PM

Wow, that is absolutley horrible. Its so sad that things like this happen. I will definitely keep you both in my thoughts. Be strong.

Hollow · 07-11-2007, 07:56 PM

i'm so glad you went to the police. rapists who make such threats to their victims don't realize that the police can protect those victims from anyone who is threatening them, and unfortunately, many of the victims don't realize it either.

i hope she can get some kind of help to get through this emotionally, and the guy ends up in jail for a long time. that's so disgusting and sad.

Ireneparalegal · 07-11-2007, 07:56 PM

Thank God you both did the right thing. Scum like that need to know they can't go around raping girls and threatening them. I pray she will recover from this nightmare. The emotional toll I am sure will be one that will take a very long time for her to recover from, if at all. Thank God she survived. Too many bastards rape and kill their victims. I am sorry she had to suffer such a traumatic "experience". I am also thankful she had you for a friend to run to. I am sure you will do your best to help her through this. I pray for her recovery and I also hope that scumbag gets caught and gets thrown in prison for a long time. GOD BE WITH HER.

phoebe7165 · 07-11-2007, 08:05 PM

I can't imagine a more traumatizing experience for a woman to have to go through. I'm sorry about what happened to your friend. It's so nice that she has a great friend like you to help her try to get through it. My thoughts & prayers are with you both.
