NYC Reporter Stays Night at Occupy Wall St: ‘Scary Place’ Where Rape Threat is ‘Very Real’ | Video | TheBlaze.com

NYC Reporter Stays Night at Occupy Wall St: ‘Scary Place’ Where Rape Threat is ‘Very Real’ | Video | TheBlaze.com: A female reporter braved the frigid and smelly air to spend the night at Occupy Wall Street over the weekend, but her main fear stemmed from the swirling rumors and accusations of sexual assault at Zuccotti Park.

“It’s a scary place,” Candice Giove of the New York Post told “Good Day New York.” She also wrote in a column yesterday on her overnight that ”the threat of rape is very real for men and women.”

She spent the night in a women only tent, which has been set up in response to numerous allegations of sexual assault and rape down at Zuccotti Park. Police have confirmed at least two instances of sexual assault there, and at least one arrest has been made as a result.

Giove claimed her discussions with Occupiers indicated there have been “many, many stories of sexual abuse in the park.”
