A graduate of a highly regarded New Hampshire prep school is headed to court this week over rape charges stemming from an alleged attack there last year.
Owen Labrie, who is now 19 and a former student at St. Paul’s School, is charged in the alleged rape of a 15-year-old girl in 2014. He has pleaded not guilty to multiple felony counts.
The accused teen has told police about an alleged competition at the elite school, in which, he says, some seniors competed to have sex with the most younger girls. The investigation is ongoing.
What Happened?
Prosecutors contend that Labrie, who was accepted to Harvard, raped the girl inside a building on the school’s Concord, New Hampshire, campus May 30, 2014, according to ABC affiliate station WMUR-TV in Manchester.
The girl’s name has not been publicly released because of her age and the nature of the crime.
The timing would mean that the alleged attack happened two days before his June 1 graduation.
