Wait, I'm confused. When you say "once again" are you referring to an all-new incident that literally just happened or are you referring to your friend (and incident) that you shared with us a while back -- the one where your friend was assaulted, but her boyfriend was out of town at the time and couldn't be found, but then he raced to be back at her side, etc. I'm just trying to get what happened here clear in my head as a starting point.
And sadly, if you are referring to yet another all-new assault, then I'm sure I speak for everyone here when I say that all of our prayers go out to your friend right now as she tries to recover.
