Little Outrage Over Student Beating at Princeton UniversityTuesday, December 18, 2007
By Brit Hume
Conservative students and faculty at Princeton University are questioning the absence of campus and community outrage — following the beating of a student leading a morality movement at the school. The New York Sun reports Francisco Nava was attacked by two men last week and told to shut up. The beating came two days after Nava received death threats by e-mail.
Nava — who is a Mormon — wrote in the student newspaper that a school campaign to distribute free condoms on campus was a — "tacit sponsorship of hookup sex." Three other members of the morally conservative Anscombe Society also received the threats, along with a conservative professor.
Princeton graduate Michael Fragoso tells the Sun — "There would rightly be outrage had the student been part of some other minority on campus. I have yet to see that right now, and that's rather disappointing."
No suspects have been identified and Princeton Township Police say they will not comment on the pending investigation.
UPDATE: Here's a quick update on our Grapevine about The New York Sun story concerning the Princeton student who alleged he had been beaten -- after coming out against the school distribution of condoms. The Daily Princetonian says Francisco Nava has admitted he made up the story and fabricated e-mails threatening his life and those of other students and one professors.
Nava reportedly confessed to police on Monday. He has been released with no charges so far. The school says its investigation is ongoing.http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,317201,00.htmlHEYYYYY BRIT, the real outrage is over why you have your own TV show. I bet it really sucks to be you today.!!!
