Incident at Girton

Looks like this has escaped to the wider world: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/cambridgeshire/4509465.stm

Bunch of bummers.

Chortle.







Scoff.
































Cool.

there are loads of cambridge psychos. there was the white car on west road, the cyclist stabber (who got someone in the road behind corpus!!), oh and the total maniacs who like to drive up tennis court road the wrong way!!!!!

back to the girton incident...has anyone heard what's happened? someone told me what they'd heard, but i dont particularly want to say because i dont wanna be spreading lies (especially icky ones).

And not just cambridge - wasn't there an incident at oxford where two men (students?) kidnapped a student, took him to a quarry and stabbed him for his wallet? Frankly, if it came down to it, i'd take buggery any day..

Hey guys, have read through the thread. I live here and you know as much as i do. The college is telling nothing, and everyone's really closed mouth about it. Reema, please don't worry. Everyone here's really shocked, the entire college is in shock. None of us ever expected this to happen in our college and all they're (college authorities) saying is that "the college council will take proper disciplinary actions and that the police investigation is ongoing." Also we've been accosted by journalists from newspapers outside college asking for information on this. It's really odd here at the moment. I'm sorry this has worried you Reema, it's worried us all. All i can say is that i hope the college gets it's act togehter when it knows what happened and kicks everyone responsible out on their asses in the street. Till then, it's gonna be weird here. Oh and Varsity has once again proved what a sterling investigative outfit it is, without (as usual in my view) thinking about the consequences of what they write.

You mean u don't know who the victim and who the suspects are? Is the college really so large? (I don't personally care for names since I know noone, but haven't u heard from others or anything?)

Thanks Pollo Loco for your reassurance . I think overreacted a little...there's dangers like that everywhere if you think about it logically, but i was just surprised at the extent of it, and of course it had to be at the exact college I chose to go to . But I know from my own experience how friendly the people at Girton are, so I'm still looking forward to going there!

TBH I thought the same. I am very annoyed with Pol as he turned up at my room with two friends at 12:30 the other night. Luckily I was still awake otherwise he would have incurred my rather formidable wrath. He's degraded now though so I guess we won't be hearing from him til next year.

Has everything calmed down about that now Dan..? I remember coming back from Wolfie with Isabel (thanks to my nighttime ban from college) that morning and a couple of rooms were blocked off and that room had a police guard who also wouldn't say much when we tried to chat to her. Then Ciarán came and said even less than the police woman.. Quite scary to think that stuff would really happen on our corridor. Could have equally well been any of us, assuming it was all true. Not good at all..

It happened on your corridor?
Jeepers.

A.

No don't think so, one of the people involved was from my corridor. In any case i wasn't on my corridor at the time.

Is it really bad that when I hear about a sexual assault in Girton the first thing I think about is whether Pol was involved.

Though, from their ages, he surprisingly wasn't!

A.

That's quite unfair of you man.. To be honest, joking or otherwise, I have no idea what would make you say that. Asking anyone in Girton who knows me, whilst they may not all like me I doubt anyone would accuse me of being up for sexually assaulting anyone. Let alone a guy.
