Woman working in youth detention center charged with rape
New York State Police arrested 35-year-old Jerica J. Costich, from Rochester, on charges of rape after an allegation that she had an inappropriate relationship with an 18-year-old detainee at the Industry Residential Center.
That story is ridiculously short on details. Is it statutory rape because they were under 18 at the time? Was it coerced sex? Did she violently assault him?
I'm not saying I want a play-by-play, but the tiniest bit of information about what happened would help.
Prisoners cannot freely give consent to their jailers.
Good point.

What difference does the information make to you?
What a strange question. You don't think that more information about a story is helpful for people to learn things?
