Seven football players try to STOP a rape.

Demetrius Mayes, 18, has been arrested on a charge of sexual battery to a physically helpless person.

The victim told police she met Mayes at an off-campus party on Saturday and that they went back to the dorms on UCF's campus with a group of people, including several of his teammates.

She then remembered waking up to the sound of someone banging on a door and saw that she was completely naked and being penetrated by Mayes, according to the arrest affidavit.

The victim said Mayes blocked the door when she put on her clothes and tried to leave his dorm room.

Seven of Mayes' teammates saw him take the victim to his room and realized she was intoxicated.

They tried to get Mayes to stop, banging on the door and telling him he was making a 'big mistake'.

Navy officer found dead same day she's due in court for order of protection

http://www.nydailynews.com/news/crime/ny-news-navy-officer-dead-court-day-order-protection-20180919-story.html

Earlier this month, Washington was granted a temporary order of protection against a man who she described as “someone I was living with in a relationship,” according to court documents obtained by ABC News. She claimed the man attacked her on Sept. 1 after she requested he pay the bills.

He “pushed me down to the floor, kicked me in my stomach, chased me to the bedroom and pulled a gun on me,” she said, adding he also kicked holes in the bedroom and closet doors, took her vehicle and mailbox keys and destroyed her iPad.

Washington also noted that she went to the emergency room the next morning.

She was due in court hours after her body was discovered Monday, where Duval County Circuit Court Judge Hugh Carithers was slated to decide whether or not to extend her order of protection. But in a heavily redacted report released on Tuesday, sheriffs officials wrote the homicide is not related to domestic violence.

During a benefit concert in February 2017, Black called on Hollywood stars to “talk more shit” about “that asshole” Trump. He’s also likened Trump to actor Charlie Sheen “when he was on crack” and dubbed the president an “evil fucking warlock” who stole his rock band Tenacious D’s style.

Poll: 51 percent of Utahns disapprove of Trump, women like him less than men

A poll released on utahpolicy.com and conducted by Dan Jones & Associates says 51 percent of Utahns “strongly” or “somewhat” disapprove of the job President Donald Trump is doing.

41 percent of Utahns polled said they strongly disapproved of President Trump, while 10 percent said the somewhat disapproved, the poll said.

23 percent said they strongly approved, and 24 percent said they somewhat approved. Only one percent of people said answered “don’t know” in the poll.

Utah men favored Trump 58 to 40 percent, while women disapproved of him 48 to 46, the poll found.

“Rarely do Utah men and women feel so differently about an issue or person than we find today with Trump,” Utah Policy said. “Statistically speaking, the 23-percentage-point swing between disapproval ratings in the sexes is nothing short of remarkable.”

“Very active” Mormons said in the poll that they like Trump, 62 to 37 percent.

Mark Judge, Kavanaugh's buddy, is a pig. Questioned Obama's masculinity

'Uncontrollable male passion': Writings of Brett Kavanaugh's classmate under scrutiny

"Certain women should be struck regularly, like gongs."

That quote from British playwright Noel Coward was featured on Mark Judge's senior yearbook page when he graduated from Georgetown Preparatory School in Bethesda, Maryland, in 1983, according to a report from The Washington Post.

Judge is the man accused of watching and laughing while his friend Brett Kavanaugh – now a nominee to the Supreme Court – held a girl down and tried to remove her clothes at a party while they were all in high school.

Since the allegations by psychology professor Christine Blasey Ford came to light, the the writings of Judge, an author and columnist, are under intense scrutiny. From his high school yearbook quote to his more recent opinion pieces, Judge's takes on men, women and sexuality are raising eyebrows.

"I never saw anything like what was described," Judge told The New York Times, adding that the students at Georgetown Prep were raised Catholic and would not have behaved the way described by Ford.

------

Judge eventually stopped drinking and became a devout Catholic. After a stint as a college professor, he began writing columns that have appeared in a wide range of publications.


---


In one August 2013 column for the conservative site The Daily Caller, Judge called Barack Obama "the first female president" because he "doesn’t have just a streak of the feminine in him; he seems to be a woman, and a feminist one at that, with a streak of man in him."
