I tried to voice that to him as much as I could.

And I said, I think I'm just in shock from this all.

And I really need help.

I need someone to tell me what to do and how to figure this out.

He told me that probably my best route would be to turn it into the University of Utah so that they can scare him

So he won't actually violently rape someone next time.

And I remember looking at the girl behind him.

We both made eyes and she made these big eyes like he just said that.

After that, my body kind of shut down.

That's when I said, OK, sounds good.

And he said, would you like us to email your professors and tell them to give you more time?

And I said, that would be great.

They didn't even offer counseling services or anything like that.

all the pamphlets that they're supposed to give you.

He didn't speak of any of that.

I didn't understand at that time that's what he was supposed to be doing, that he was supposed to be offering me these resources.

I just think that that's really dangerous, especially in these situations, because at any university, but especially here in Utah, the community is small.

Everyone knows everyone.

If anyone wanted to find out my school, my address, any of these things, it would be so easy for them.

So for him to say that he didn't think I was in immediate danger walking to my car after class at night, that's not for him to say.
