Gang Rape
Denver, CO: (Dec-05-07) Two women, Lisa Simpson and another woman who wished to remain unidentified, filed a lawsuit against the University of Colorado, alleging that they were gang raped at an off campus party for football recruits. The women claimed that the University of Colorado violated federal law by fostering an environment that allowed sexual assaults to occur. The suit accused the university of failing to adequately supervise players when the women were raped in 2001.
As part of a settlement reached, the 6-year-old scandalous suit reached resolution after the varsity agreed to pay $2.85 million to the two women. Terms of the settlement call for Lisa Simpson to receive $2.5 million, while the other woman will receive $350,000. Sources close to the case stated that the university faced years of litigation over the case, and fees for outside attorneys had already reached $3 million. [THE COLORADOAN: GANG RAPE]
