The more important question:
Would she have reported this as a rape if she hadn't heard the guys wife on the phone?
Actually, she reported being raped before, so the likely answer is, yes, she would have reported it this time.
Um, no. Actually, she didn't. Did you read the article?
Quote:
Yesterday, Seibert, 24, was arraigned on charges of rape, sexual assault and indecent assault in the alleged Aug. 30 incident at Leiby's Parkway, a mobile home community in the 7000 block of the Carlisle Pike. He was released on $25,000 bail.
According to arrest documents, police were notified on Sept. 2 after the woman, whose name is being withheld by The Patriot-News, went to Harrisburg Hospital, where she told a nurse she had been raped.
The woman, who knew Seibert, also told police that Seibert had raped her once before on May 5, according to arrest documents. That incident was not reported until Sept. 3.
Both rapes were reported *after* the incident on Aug 30th. She waited 3 days to report it (Sep 2nd). She then doesn't mention that he'd supposedly raped her a month before that until the next day after that...
So no. This was not a case of being raped, reporting it, then having the same guy come by and rape her again. This is a case of a woman coming in to the hospital claiming to have been raped three days earlier by a guy she knew, after hanging out with him and chatting, then inviting him inside for a drink. Oh, and this is supposed to be after he raped her a month earlier...
Sigh. When did "rape" become synonymous with "sex"?

However, it gets stranger. That previous rape? Same guy. And according to the article: "In the latest incident, according to arrest documents, the woman was folding laundry when Seibert, of the 7000 block of Carlisle Pike, showed up around 2 p.m.
Seibert said he wanted to talk and at first they sat on a swing outside, but then Seibert followed her into the house after asking the woman for a drink, according to arrest documents."
Um, if he raped her before I think sitting on a swing with the guy is a bad idea. I've never been raped before - I imagine it would be horrific. I would tell the guy to leave and if he didn't I'd call the cops.
It's only strange if you assume that she's telling the truth. It makes complete sense if you instead assume that she was not raped, but instead was having sex with the guy consensually, heard his wife on the phone, got pissed off that he lied to her about being married, and concocted the entire thing to get back at him.
Which do *you* find more likely?...
