A University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill student says that UNC and its police department mishandled her report that she was raped by a football player, with campus police officers treating her like a suspect while offering the actual suspect support and reassurance. “Rather than accusing him of anything, the investigators spoke to him with a tone of camaraderie,” the victim, Delaney Robinson, said in a statement Tuesday. “They even laughed with him when he told them how many girls’ phone numbers he had managed to get on the same night he raped me. They told him, ‘Don’t sweat it. Just keep on living your life and playing football.’ This man raped me and the police told him not to sweat it.”
