[QUOTE]Los Angeles authorities Friday arrested a man they believe raped a mentally disabled woman on an almost-empty bus during rush hour Wednesday.Kerry Trotter, 20, of South Los Angeles was taken into custody by Los Angeles County sheriff's deputies, the[URL="http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/U/US_PUBLIC_BUS_RAPE?SITE=AP&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT&CTIME=2012-11-09-16-34-45"]Associated Press reports[/URL]. Investigators said they received an anonymous tip after circulating a photo of the suspect taken from video of the 10-minute assault in the back of the Metropolitan Transit Agency bus in Culver City.
The only other person on the La Cienega Expo Line bus at 5 p.m. PT "attempted to get the bus driver's attention," the [URL="http://nixle.com/alert/4913810/"]sheriff's department said[/URL], without explaining why he had failed.
The victim, an 18-year-old woman described as having the mental capacity of a 10-year-old, said that she and the suspect boarded the bus at the same stop and that he followed her to the back. The suspect left the bus at its last stop, and the victim reported the rape to the driver, the sheriff's department said.
The driver is being questioned.
The public buses are equipped with a silent alarm, and drivers are supposed to alert dispatchers if they suspect a crime.
An MTA spokesman called the rape "an extremely rare occurrence." Two other rapes aboard buses have been reported this year, AP says.[/QUOTE]

why..
For a second there I thought she was in a wheelchair, that almost got my jaw to drop. You can't really tell if they're mentally handicapped, so this guy wasn't targeting her or anything.
But seriously. He must be mentally ill too if he went out and did this sort of thing.
How do you not realize there is a rape taking place in the back of your bus? Those buses are not that big or loud, you would definitely be aware of people having consensual sex so why in the hell can't you see or hear a rape?

I don't know he is concentrating on driving and that "do not make a sound or I will hurt/kill you", the bus driver has a shitty little mirror, he misses things.

It depends on the kind of bus. When I was in Washington DC, there were these segmented buses where the front was like a normal bus, but then there was a second 'bus' attached at the back end. Most of the sightlines between them was obscured.

Okay, how the fuck does that happen? Are busses really that good to have surprise-sex in?

Obviously not since only 3 rapes happened in a year.
Out of everywhere, a bus would be the place I'd least expected.
Though as Mr.Someguy pointed out, I guess it also depends on the type of bus. But still, damn.
What the hell, people are sick...
Wow, busses around here have like 5 cameras on the inside...
