RAPE RAP HITS TOP IVY PROF (GWEN SHAFFER and BRIDGET HARRISON, May 5, 2003, NY Post)

He usually makes headlines for his cutting-edge research into brain damage. But prominent Ivy League professor Tracy McIntosh is now facing a different kind of notoriety - after being accused of raping a student in his campus office.

The leading doctor at University of Pennsylvania Medical School turned himself into police last week, following allegations by a 23-year old veterinary student that he took her to his office and forced her to have sex with him after the pair had smoked pot.

Is this kind of thing even forbidden anymore? Didn't the Democrats establish during the Clinton impeachment that sexual assault is a private matter? Posted by Orrin Judd at May 5, 2003 7:49 AM
