64. Just Read An Account Linked Here Yesterday That Was An Account By

Charmaine Neville.

She was raped herself at the Convention Center and says that she personally saw old women, young boys and young girls raped as well.

Go do some research before you start acting like this is all hype. The information is documented.

The rapes did occur. Many, many of them.

Do you really think that the police have had time or resources to "confirm" the accounts? Of course they have not.

Why are you so ready to assume this stuff did not occur unless the cops confirm it. This was total anarchy.

I'll see if I can find that article I was reading yesterday...

"Just back from a visit to Our Lady of the Lake Regional Medical Center on Saturday afternoon, Neville was cut, bruised and a little despondent. Among the horrible things she'd seen last week, she said, was the rape of old women, girls and boys."

"Neville said that she, too, was raped during those chaotic days. "What he took from me was nothing, because he can't take my spirit, he can't take my soul. My soul is New Orleans."
