Another victim was attacked on a canal towpath, assaulted, and nearly strangled. An Uber driver raped a passenger at knifepoint — but thanks to a swift report, he was arrested within an hour. One abuser received a decade-long sentence for years of terrorizing a woman through strangulation and theft. Meanwhile, a Snapchat party spiraled into violence involving blackmail and BB guns, and a trafficker was sentenced for smuggling a ton of cocaine and handling millions in cash.
