• UVA Fraternity to Take Legal Action as 'Rolling Stone' Writer Keeps Job in Spite of Scandal

    Last November, 'Rolling Stone' published a horrifying story about an alleged gang rape on the campus of the University of Virginia. A woman named "Jackie" accused members of the Phi Kappa Psi fraternity of a brutal gang rape that shook the community and appalled readers of the publication. We now know that not only did the supposed facts not add up, but that those responsible for the piece never bothered to fact check. Sabrina Rubin Erdely interviewed Jackie eight times for the explosive story that we now know has been officially retracted, but never talked to her friends in spite of referencing them in the piece. The UVA fraternity will take legal action against the magazine while the wrtier will keep her job in spite of the scandal.

    Five months after Hannah Graham of UVA was last scene on a surveillance camera walking with Jesse Matthew near Charlottesville Mall in Virginia, he has been charged with her murder. The 18-year-old University of Virginia student's murder has always been linked to 32-year-old Matthew, but until late last night, Feb. 9, he had only been charged with abduction with intent to defile. Prosecutors apparently now believe they have enough evidence against Matthew that will stick.

  • Human Remains Found May Belong to Hannah Graham as Investigators Work to Tie Jesse Matthew to Several Crimes

    University of Virginia student Hannah Graham was first reported missing five weeks ago, and over the weekend a significant finding turned this open case into a death investigation. Sgt. Dale Terry of the Chesterfield Sheriff's Department was with a small search team ready to call it a day when they made a gruesome discovery. Behind an abandoned home nearly 8 miles from where Graham was last seen, Terry and his team discovered a skull and bones scattered across a creek bed with a pair of black pants nearby. While it will take forensic testing to be certain whether these are the remains of Graham, a continued search for her has been called off. Investigators are also working to tie Jesse Matthew to several crimes.
