Although it’s difficult to discover, there have been at least 4 assaults on women in Boulder in the last 3 weeks. 3 of the 4 are confirmed sex assaults and doesn't think she was sexually assaulted, but she was unconscious. The assaults took place on the 31st, 3rd, 4th, and 18th.
Although the information is there in the news, you would think that so many sexual assaults in a small town in such a short time span would be big news.
From what I can discover so far, in at least 2 cases the victim was approached from behind and likely struck from behind knocking them unconscious. One may have been put under using some kind of chemical, it’s unclear.
Do your due diligence, don’t walk to your car or anywhere alone at night. It’s just not worth it. Pay close attention to your surroundings at all times and most of all, listen to your gut. If something does not feel right it’s not, plain and simple.
From a self defense standpoint, there’s nothing you can do to defend yourself once you’re unconscious, so awareness is the beginning of good self defense.
Be safe out there….
