OCEAN CITY — A Georgetown, Delaware man this week was charged with rape after an investigation connected him to sexual assault at an uptown Ocean City residence earlier this month that was recorded on his friend’s cellphone.
Around 4 a.m. on April 13, an Ocean City Police Department (OCPD) officer on patrol in the 141st Street area was approached by a female who needed help. The victim told police she had just woken up in a house naked and did not know where she was. The victim told police she did not remember everything that had happened throughout the night and that she believed she had been raped.
The victim told police she had gone to a downtown bar with a friend and that they had met up with two men she knew including Isaac Lopez, 21, of Georgetown. The victim told police the group stayed at the bar until closing time and then shared a cab to a residence on 12th Street. Around 2:50 a.m., the group decided to check out another party uptown at 141st Street and took a cab to the location. The victim told police Lopez and the other man had to wake her up in the cab when they arrived at 141st Street and they went into the residence where a supposed party was going on, but there was only one individual there sleeping on a couch.

The cameraman should be charged as well because he was not only an accessory but complicit to the crime taking place. These are some sick individuals, sexual deviants. Second degree rape is just not good enough. Clearly, knowing their victim was having trouble staying awake (wonder why: was it alcohol or date-rape drug slipped into a drink at the bar) so they had malice and intent. Our local law is just too lenient on lawbreakers. Start enforcing our laws.
ReplyDeleteYour laws don't exist but they should it's a terrible crime. If the witness maintains her story rape kit is done and the states attorneys don't take a ridiculous plea then this " possible illegal" will spend the next 22 behind bars. This also depends on how the judge does the sentence.
DeleteLaw enforcement is not too lenient. Leniency comes from the courts. LE charges appropriately based on the laws not their person opinions, just to have the SAO and courts wash the cases down.
ReplyDeletei'm sure they are just some innocent underage daca kids waiting for their citizenship
ReplyDeleteWhat makes you think the guy that was video taping was an under age Daca kid. Clearly you did not read the report that stated that the man that video taped the incident was with the women, and charged man at the bar. I didn't know under aged kids are allowed at the bar,and the kid that has been charged is a citizen of the U.S so leave the Illegal crap out of the comments.
