Halliburton Covers Up Gang-Rape
filed in Blog on Dec.27, 2007
Jamie Leigh Jones came forward this month to claim that she’d been gang-raped by Halliburton/KBR employees, then locked in a room for 24 hours so a rape kit could not be administered.
An army rape kit proved that she had been raped vaginally and anally–then promptly disappeared.
For her part, Jones was told not to tell. Sound familiar? It’s not that there’s a conspiracy among Halliburton or Blackwater or The Administration to commit these evil acts and then cover them up. It never is–it’s just the opposite. These evil acts occur in an unsupervised, hostile, stressful and undisciplined environment. Then the companies cover them up like a scared 13-year-old who accidentally set a fire in his parents garage. Like the boy’s parents, it’s up to the media, and the public, to discover and punish these events.
There’s no option for the companies themselves–either get in trouble, or don’t. If there were millions at stake, what would you do?
