‘60 Minutes” Airs UM Rape Scandal

In the Missoulian, reporter Martin Kidston reports: The woman who claims she was sexually assaulted by four University of Montana ootball players in 2010 criticized the Missoula Police Department and the Missoula County Attorney’s Office for their handling of the case on a “60 Minutes Sports” interview that aired Tuesday night. Broadcast to a national audience on Showtime, the report also contended that former UM head football coach Robin Pflugrad knew about the alleged gang rape but failed to inform school officials. Those officials, including former UM Dean of Students Charles Couture, wouldn’t learn of the alleged rape for a year. Pflugrad declined a request for an interview by “60 Minutes.” More here.
