It simply said University Police received anonymous reports of 2 possible sexual assaults last weekend. One was from an east side Residence Hall on saturday, the other was in a west side hall on sunday. In both cases the alleged victims did not want to the warnings didnt even give the names of the Residence Halls. The universitys Public Safety Department Says the vague information is not intended to generate leads for police. Instead, its part of an overall plan to make the community safer. Officials say the idea of timely warnings about possible Sexual Misconduct reminds people not to be afraid to report incidents or to seek help. It does help to remind people this type of incident does occur and it when it says the suspect was known to the survivor its helpful to remind people to confront that myth its not the person who jumps out of the bushes to hurt somebody. University police say the school could face a 35 thousand dollar federal fine if it doesnt issue alerts in a timely manner about possible Sexual Misconducts on campus. The crime alert the university sent out monday night is different from a hawk alert, which goes out when theres a threat to the campus. Last november, the university sent out a hawk alert about a man who was groping year old Adam Weinstein on charges of sexual abuse, assault, and harassment. Hes scheduled to go to trial in may.
