  • presuming the story is true as presented...

    At LEAST two rapes occured here.

    The prostitute had sex with the first guy for $150. Not rape.

    Then she initially consented to have sex with the second guy for $100, but revoked that consent when it became apparent that 1.) he wasn't going to pay and 2.) he was going to hold a gun to her head while doing the deed. I'd call that rape, but I can see where it might be at the very, very top of the slippery legal slope.

    Then guy #3 and guy #4 have nonconsensual sex with her at gunpoint. That's plain and simple rape, right there. No agreement of any kind was EVER made between her and those two men.

    Doesn't matter if she's a prostitute. Doesn't matter if she tortures puppies for a living while feasting on the flesh of newborn babes. She never consented, they forced her to have sex at gunpoint. That's rape.
