"Intruder with stun gun"
 
   Caution urged after 2 sex
attacks

College-town assaults spur warnings by
cops

By The Denver Post


Sunday, April 14, 2002 - Assaults on two women in
college towns this weekend stirred warnings from
police that as the weather gets nicer, people should
be cautious about locking doors and windows.

In Boulder early Saturday, a woman sleeping in her
apartment was attacked by a man who slipped in
through an unlocked window. Police think he may
have used a stun gun on her. When the woman
screamed, the man ran out of the apartment.

The assault occurred in the 2600 block of Iris
Avenue, a few miles from the University of Colorado.

And early Friday, a woman returned to her apartment
in Fort Collins about 3 a.m. and a man followed her
inside. He grabbed her from behind and she wriggled
free, screaming, according to police reports.

He ran out the front door.

The woman lived in Ram's Pointe apartment complex
in the 2200 block of West Elizabeth Street near
Colorado State University. The woman is a student
at Colorado State.

Police are looking into whether this assault is related
to an April 5 assault in a dorm where a woman was
raped, Fort Collins police said Saturday.

Officials said they don't think either incident is
related to a string of rapes that occurred in
garden-level apartments last summer in Fort Collins.

"When the weather is warm, you must be careful,"
said Sgt. Robert Thomas of the Boulder Police
Department.

Entering a house and using a stun gun on a female victim.... where has that happened before?

Glad this one got away.

   Frankly, I think the crimes are unrelated to the murder of JonBenet.

And I am absolutely certain that the BPD thinks so. The moment the BPD hears of a crime like this they start off the report with the caption: Report of crime unrleated to JBR murder.

College girls, Rape as primary motive, entry on warm night, ... several years since JBR murder.
yeah..unrelated.

But the BPD publicity machine sure works in that "instant on" mode.

   Well, yes, it's probably not related to the murder of JBR, but unless they're psychic, how would they know until they catch the perp and compare his DNA to the Ramsey case DNA?

Aside from that, it proves that people enter houses with stun guns and harm people in their beds - for no apparent reason. Good thing the woman wasn't serious injured or killed.

   Probably - - one went after a child, the other an adult.

But the point is that it is not impossible for an intruder to enter a house through a window and a stun gun is NOT unheard of as a weapon for an intruder.

If the DNA matched, I wonder if the BPD would tell us.

(I don't think so. I don't think they would do anything to help clear the Ramseys.)

   I think the point is the fact they used a stun gun as a weapon..it's not unheard of.
