Men Accused of Raping 11-Year-Old Girls, But Don’t Expect Feminists to Notice

  These cases don’t fit the “intersectional” narrative: Two Montgomery County Public School students — ages 20 and 19 — were recently arrested at their respective high schools, on allegations they raped different 11-year-old girls at apartments located off-campus. Jonathan Coreas-Salamanca, 20, and Ivan Reyes Lopez, 19, are each charged with second-degree rape. Coreas-Salamanca has […]
