Thank you for the clarification. :)

Thanks for this anecdote. I always wondered what mental gymnastics SPS students used to justify their support of a rapist.

I’m going to reply to every copy-and-paste version of the bullshit narrative that you’re trying to spin about this asshole. Your narrative is no more correct than Jezebel’s.

Take your own advice and stop talking shit. There are so many inaccuracies in your comment. Please go post your bullshit on some misogynist website that will applaud your efforts. There are dozens of them out there.

Only two months in jail and he really packed on the pounds. I do have to wonder if he lost weight for trial...

He isn’t from an excessively wealthy family. He made a lot of connections at St. Paul’s though, some of whom are bending over backwards to support him. Labrie isn’t supposed to be communicating with his closest buddies because they are witnesses and appeals are pending but I expect them to help him out as much as they…

I respectfully submit that this guy hasn’t received even a fraction of shit that he so richly deserves.

Labrie’s family is NOT dirt poor. Please stop making shit up. His mother teaches some but I believe she also works in administration for the school. She makes a decent living.

See my previous response to this bullshit. You talk a lot of crap for someone trying to set the record straight.

Statutory rape is still rape. She cannot consent, which he knew full well being a prefect with training on this particular issue.

Yes, the victim was raped. That’s why it’s colloquially known as statutory rape because the victim cannot consent. He was “covered” by Romeo and Juliet laws in NH, that’s why he received misdemeanor sexual assaults convictions. Btw, Romeo and Juliet were in love, Labrie and his victim barely knew each other.

I’m not an attorney but I don’t understand how Harvard can rescind his admission but then wink at his academic involvement on campus post-conviction. His presence would seem to expose the university to legal liability. He’s researching his thesis at Harvard (per a document submitted by his attorney), dating a Harvard…

So what is your take on Labrie (seeing him on campus, dating a Harvard student, researching his thesis at Harvard)? And what is the opinion of other students there?

OK, then. Have it your way — he’s a statutory rapist. In fact, Susan Zalkind called him exactly that today in her interesting piece on a chance meeting with Labrie in Boston.

The article actually points out something pretty important: that Labrie had been counselled on sex consent and stat rape issues as he was a dorm prefect and was expected to counsel his fellow students on these issues. So he knew exactly was he was doing when he solicited a minor for sex. He and his buddies joked about…

He was never charged with rape, so how could he be acquitted of it?

Thank you for pointing that out. That troubles me too. She’s lost so much — the opportunity to go to one of the best prep schools in the country (in the worst possible way, no less) which will impact her chance of getting into the college of her choice. Not to mention the emotional/psychological scars of being raped.…

Perhaps if he could admit his guilt and allow the victim to move on with her life, there might be some hope for his eventual redemption. But, he continues to bleat his innocence with the most insultingly illogical excuses and outrageous lies.
