World Herald finally starting to pick up the story. Wasn't on talk radio yesterday, but they are discussing today. Pretty serious issue based on the bail amount, and the charge. In order to have 1st degree sexual assault there needs to be "penetration". The same judge yesterday set the exact same bail for a guy raping a 5-year old. Call in show is trying to rationalize his behavior.
On a related note 3 current and 2 ex-Cornhuskers were also arrested over the weekend. Charges seem very minor - college kids doing what college kids do, so I am certainly not throwing stones. But for Purify it is his 4th run in with the law in the last 10 months. First issue was slapping a girl in a bar, second DUI, and the 3rd was a probation violation for driving with a suspended license. The 3rd offense is just coming to light today. But happened in October, but conveniently swept under the rug because they had games still to play last fall.
