agree. None of it has to do with Sharper being “smart” at all. He is a rapist of opportunity, and opportunity happened to present itself in different states.

I was visiting NY state last summer and the clerk at a wine store was able to check my Canadian drivers license against an international database in like 10 seconds...good to know the same technology isn’t available for tracking accused rapists.

It’s not really incompetence. They just didn't care.

“the short answer is basically this: Sharper was smart enough to commit his crimes in different states, and none of the cops who investigated him were smart enough to go looking for previous accusations.”

I was sexually assaulted in college but lucky(?) enough to fight off my attacker before he could rape me on the street. To make a long story short, the police were not helpful and he was a stranger to me so I had no idea who he is. So that was fun.

Mostly, it’s about half indifference and half incompetence I would say.

Incompetent or apathetic? /whynotboth.gif

I read the article earlier this morning. Most of it involved police disinterest, lack of thoroughness or, as was the case in Louisiana, prosecutors not interested in pursuing charges. It's a very disturbing read, considering that Sharper kept raping even when police had leads and he knew he was a suspect in at least…

“Got away with it for so long? This isn’t long at all, with the drinks and the long pants and the football and the pudding pops.....”

I’m going to guess it has something to do with police being incompetent. Was I right?

Should she have been at home praying (or knitting, playing bridge, adjusting her HurryCane®, using rotary phones...) or whatever else it is you think middle-aged people should be doing?

Dafuq is a married millionaire doing at a club at 4 AM?

Dafuq is a 53 year old woman

What, middle aged women can’t dance and have fun too?

This Dafuq lady sounds like shes a lot of fun.

Yesterday the Hawks hosted the Suns. Tonight the Hawks are at playing the Nets in Brooklyn. What the hell were Pero Antic and Thabo Sefalosha doing in a club at 4:00 am??

your headline makes it sound like the Hawks players were arrested for stabbing Copeland.
