Atlanta Woman Drugged And Raped On Facebook Live At Opera Nightclub
A woman claims she was raped in a Facebook live video at Opera nightclub in Atlanta on January 19. The alleged victim says she was drugged prior to being attacked. Atlanta police are investigating the apparent sexual assault of woman that was livestreamed on Facebook.
It happened on the crowded dance floor of the Opera Atlanta nightclub, where the woman livestreamed herself dancing Saturday night. The graphic video shows the woman dancing with a man. In the beginning, she’s smiling and sipping a drink. Later, she’s saying “help me” and “no” repeatedly. On the day after the incident, the woman wrote in a series of Facebook posts that she’s “ok” and asks that people not contact her during this time as she is “still gathering” herself. The alleged victim has also deleted all images of herself from her Instagram page.
Video of the incident initially surfaced on the victim’s Facebook page on the night in question and is now all over YouTube and Twitter. According to Heavy.com, police are investigating the incident.
An Opera Atlanta statement says it has provided police with “everything requested” and will support the investigation any way it can.
Some entertainers, including EDM star Zedd, announced they’re cancelling or moving their upcoming shows.
Hey guys.
I’m sorry I will no longer be performing at Opera Atlanta on February 1st. I’m looking forward to coming back to Atlanta ASAP.— Zedd (@Zedd) January 21, 2019
