March 04, 2009 05:53 PM ET | Alison Go | Permanent Link | Print

Police in Berkeley, Calif., have reported two more sexual assaults of college-age women on or around the UC-Berkeley campus, bringing the total number of assaults linked to one suspect to 19, the Daily Californian reports.

Police have stepped up patrols in the area and have focused on publicizing preventative measures for personal safety. In response, student groups planned a rally for today and encouraged participants to wear skirts in support of the women who were assaulted, many of whom were wearing skirts when they were attacked.

It's only a matter of time before he's caught

It is simply a matter of time before they catch this guy. Human biengs are creatures of habit, and so they tend to continue similar patterns until they are eventually caught. This man is obviously a sexual deviant who is addicted to this anti-social behaviour. Therefore, since he tends to show no variation in his patterns and the police have a clear description, it is evident that his time as a free man is relatively short.
