Man Poses as Cop, Rapes Queens Woman
The Queens DA's office says a man posed as a police officer and raped a woman in Flushing on Thursday morning.
The suspect, 35-year-old Anthony Lane, is accused of using a fake police badge--actually a Department of Sanitation badge (Lane is not a DoS employee)--and saying, "Open the door, I'm the police." When the woman opened the door, NY1 reports "Lane allegedly grabbed the woman by her hair and forced her onto her bed."
According to the Post, after raping the woman, Lane "allegedly ordered her to get him a beer. She complied, and after he drank it, he allegedly raped the woman a second time. After that, he demanded and got another beer and raped her a third time."
Finally, when Lane, who also stole money from the victim, left the house, but the woman chased him. A neighbor helped her chase Lane, who was yelling, "Get out of my way--police," and held him until the cops arrived. Lane was charged with rape, burglary and police impersonation--he also had handcuffs and a police scanner.

What would have happened if she didn't have any beer?

You don't think he would have noticed it and spit it out? One mouthful wouldn't have been enough to kill him or knock him out, and he might have been pissed enought to kill the woman then.

The only thing more predictable than a tasteless remark devoid of sympathy, empathy or humanity made by the resident trolls is that sonyactivision will eventually come around to make a vapid, even more tasteless and completely worthless comment on every Gothamist article. Show of hands, everyone. Does anyone think Snoopy, babyhitler, Spear_Chucker or sonyactivision are the least bit interesting or funny? Anyone at all? I didn't think so.

Not a sentence:
"Finally, when Lane left, stealing money from the victim, but the woman chased him."

Spirit,
Think about it for a minute. A lot of women do not drink beer let alone keep it in their refrigerators.
And stop correcting all the little spelling and grammatical errors in these posts. If you want to do that become an English teacher.

So what if she drank beer? Is that an excuse for rape or for your first flippant remark? Maybe she had it around for when her boyfriend visits.
Why don't you address your correction complaint to fleshtone?
Still waiting for someone -- anyone -- to come to the defense of the trolling posts that seem to be proliferating around here lately.

You still don't get it fool. How did the rapist even know she had beer in the fridge? That's all I'm asking.

snoop:
If butchery of the english language doesn't bother you, that's fine. It bothers me, and I have every right to defend this language. These are the very basics... and she's the editor, man! I like the gothamist, but the (sometimes) bush league writing bugs the shit out of me.

For a misplaced comma edEX? That's a bit too severe if you ask me.
