I've called South Africa "the rapiest place on earth" and man- I ain't lying. I daily- daily read wire feed stories about rape in south africa. Here's a particularly charming "white guy placed in prison cell with murderers and rapists" story, told in the context of a civil lawsuit by the rapee against the government, for letting him get so raped:

Vryheid - A Vryheid game rancher was being sodomised in a police cell while the inmates were singing, the Pietermaritzburg High Court was told on Wednesday.

Game rancher, Etienne van Wyk, is claiming R1.2m from the Minister of Safety and Security.

Van Wyk and Duvenhage were first held in a cell on their own, but three female suspects were put into that cell and Van Wyk and Duvenhage moved to the cell with 14 inmates.

Evidence given was that they could have been held in other cells, the magistrate court cells or taken to other police stations. Three vans were available to move them to other stations.

The 14 inmates included suspects predisposed to violence, Robert said.

Suspects included a man charged with three murders and arson, and six men charged with rape. Other suspects were arrested for car theft and housebreaking. (NEWS 24 SOUTH AFRICA)

What happened next? A raping, that's what:

The Vryheid district surgeon, Dr Senta Klingenberg, told the court that there was evidence of repeated penetration of Van Wyk. There were both external and internal tears.

She said that Duvenhage had two bruises on the head and on his back.

Roberts said that Van Wyk was sodomised at about 03:00 by one or more inmates while others broke into song. Judge Nic van der Reyden said that this was a ruse used by prisoners to mask the sound of a bar being sawn or a similar incident.

Wow that's hella scary. Clearly a black jailer and a white rapee. If you're white and you live in South Africa, I'm assuming you carry a Glock 24 7. And try not to have daughters.
