Sexual Assault On The Rise At MSU

Are your kids safe at Missouri State University?

The school says reports of sexual assault are on the rise at an “alarming” rate. Since July, there have been five cases compared to nine in 2018. Sexual assault includes a range of accusations from rape to inappropriate touching.

In nearly 90 percent of the cases, the assault was reported to have been perpetrated by someone the victim knew.

University officials are encouraging students to come forward if something happens.
