Prosecutor prefers special police unit investigate BLACKS raping WHITE STUDENTS at Notre Dame

Students at the University of Notre Dame who have been told for years to report sexual assaults cases to campus police have the option of reporting such cases directly to the St. Joseph County Special Victims Unit, the county prosecutor says.

St. Joseph County Prosecutor Ken Cotter told the South Bend Tribune that he would prefer those cases be investigated by the unit made up of detectives drawn from South Bend, Mishawaka and county police who are trained in handling domestic violence, sex assault and child abuse cases.

"It just makes sense to me," he said.

In an agreement among Notre Dame and local officials, the countywide Metro Homicide Unit would investigate a murder on campus, and the county Fatal Alcohol Crash Team would investigate a fatal traffic accident on campus, Cotter said.
