there just are. i know someone who was kidnapped and gang raped for 4 days.
they intended to kill her when they were done, and tried to do so.
the youngest of the lot, the 17 yo son of 1 of the men, got her into a van, dropped her near where they picked her up, then shot himself a block away.

it was very painful for my son. one thing that upsets me about not being told was that i would have taken him to the doctor. he should have been. he had trouble w bowel control which i should have seen. he had had issues. he was that kid, but....

no rape is funny tho, none.
