A decorated Pittsburgh-area Marine, who lost both of his legs in Afghanistan, was arrested on Wednesday for raping a 13-year-old girl on multiple occasions, police said.
Brandon Rumbaugh, 34, of Uniontown, Pennsylvania, is a motivational speaker known for his charity work. He was previously recognized by the Marines with a Commendation Medal for valor. He was wounded in combat after stepping on an IED.

He’s done. He doesn’t have a leg to stand on.
Statutory rape evidently.
He did not lose all his legs it seems. And some things you just can’t run away from.
Another case of parents allowing a their child to hang in a grown man’s home to watch movies or play video games. All alone with him.
He’s no Lt Dan, that’s for sure.
Statutory rape evidently.
In Islam, there is a presumption that if a male and female are alone together for sufficient time which is defined (IIRC between 20 minutes and an hour) sex has occurred, and in Islam the sense that sex makes a marriage is much stronger than it has been in the west for centuries.
Islam is neither entirely wrong on these points, nor entirely correct (especially on the last one).
In the words of Pope Francis “Who am I to judge?”
Thankfully, Pope Leo looks to be the sort of person who is likely to read fully and then express himself concisely, and so may recall the answer to Pope Francis’ question anticipated by Monte Python “I’m the Bloody Pope I am”.
Having now read the article, given the culture in which it occurred, I would sentence him to 5-15 years at least if there was a threesome, and sentence the person involved in the threesome to the same.
In another culture, allowing the girl’s kin making him a triple amputee might be appropriate.
The alcohol, with hints of date-rate drugs, makes it something beyond statutory rape and threesomes are unnatural.
That he said to keep things under wraps until 18 points to his intentions being perhaps not entirely dishonorable, but mostly dishonorable at best.
Lt Dan found a supportive woman. That helps. Man is not meant to be alone.
umm, how’d this happen? you can pretty much out run some one without legs.
Another dumb family who lets their kid hang out with adults, and another pervo who has to ply a child with alcohol to get laid.
Apparently, he was a friend of the family. But that doesn’t excuse them. Even if it turns out that this man is innocent of the charges, I still say that the parents were negligent.
This case is gonna take his right out from under him. Disgusting and disgraceful. He lost what ever amount of honor gained by working with the VetOrg who employed him.
I’ll wager a paycheck he was also addicted to pornography… the devil’s gateway to the minds of men.
I guess if Kenny Rogers was around he would have to write a new song. Ruby please take your love to town.
I’ve met members of the military vets etc. who in the end need a radical overhaul.
Pray for them and share experience, strength and hope repentance from sin God as you know God and experience God.
Before they end up like this.
Another case of parents allowing a their child to hang in a grown man’s home to watch movies or play video games. All alone with him.
I’m a JROTC Instructor. I’ve had parents, particularly mothers, tell me they are perfectly having their teens alone with me. I appreciate their trust, but I make it clear I won’t be alone with a kid, not even in a vehicle.
I won’t put myself in a situation where there’s even the slightest opening for an accusation.
“threesomes are unnatural.”
I don’t know about that. I do know that properly done they’re a heck of a lot of fun.

When my neighbor’s father was young, he lost both of his arms at the shoulders in a work related industrial accident. As he aged, his mobility became an issue and at ninety he went to a nursing home. My neighbor got a call from the facility that her dad was under investigation for rape. A worker came into his room and an elderly woman was on top of him, in his bed performing a “sex act”. The woman’s family was informed, saying their mother was FORCED and contacted the police. Charges were dropped against my friends dad but the nursing home made him leave.
10? 12? 13? Kill him.
Right! Granted, he is an adult and should have known better, but the parents should not have let her hang out alone with an adult male!
