Missoula: Rape and the Justice System in a College TownMissoula, Montana, is a typical college town, home to a highly regarded state university whose beloved football team inspires a passionately loyal fan base. Between January 2008 and May 2012, hundreds of students reported sexual assaults to the local police. Few of the cases were properly handled by either the university or local authorities.

Missoula, Montana, is a typical college town, home to a highly regarded state university whose beloved football team inspires a passionately loyal fan base. Between January 2008 and May 2012, hundreds of students reported sexual assaults to the local police. Few of the cases were properly handled by either the university or local authorities. In this, Missoula is also typical.

In these pages, acclaimed journalist Jon Krakauer investigates a spate of campus rapes that occurred in Missoula over a four-year period. Taking the town as a case study for a crime that is sadly prevalent throughout the nation, Krakauer documents the experiences of five victims: their fear and self-doubt in the aftermath; the skepticism directed at them by police, prosecutors, and the public; their bravery in pushing forward and what it cost them. These stories cut through abstract ideological debate about acquaintance rape to demonstrate that it does not happen because women are sending mixed signals or seeking attention. They are victims of a terrible crime, deserving of fairness from our justice system. Rigorously researched, rendered in incisive prose, Missoula stands as an essential call to action.

The Wrangler Jeans sized 62x28 were incorrectly tagged for size.
Fit Type: Relaxed,Classic, Color: Antique Indigo, Size: 64W x 30L
The exterior size tags a adhesive strip on the leg were marked were marked 62X28. these tags were the INCORRECT . the jeans have a white cloth tag sewn inside the garment on the left front pocket that clearly indicated these jeans are size 60X32.. It's a case an of improperly marked pair of jeans. looking at them on a display shelf one would have to believe this pair of jeans were size 62X28. i do not old the shipping department at blame. I need to exchange them for the proper size.
