UPDATE: The victim has died.
Well, if she lives, and she’s pregnant, she can always heal herself emotionally by giving birth to her rapist’s child – and then he can file for parental rights! Rick Santorum would be so proud!
And she’s lucky enough that this would be considered a “legitimate” rape, even by Todd Akin:
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — A sheriff says a severely burned woman was naked and had a rope around her neck when a passing motorist spotted her on a road in a rural, heavily wooded area of eastern Ohio, roughly 60 miles from her home.
The traveler found the woman Sunday northeast of Zanesville and called 911. He told a dispatcher the woman had been raped, beaten and burned.
Muskingum County Sheriff Matt Lutz says the 29-year-old woman from the Canton area had fourth-degree burns over most of her body. He said she was in critical condition Monday at a Columbus hospital.
Maybe Paul Ryan can visit her and encourage her to do the “right” thing.
