Facebook message leads to warrant in years-old Gettysburg College rape claim

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — A Pennsylvania judge on Tuesday signed an arrest warrant charging a former Gettysburg College student with sexual assault, nearly eight years after a freshman went to police over a dorm room encounter and a year after she received an online message that read, “So I raped you.”
Police say they are looking for 28-year-old Ian Cleary of Saratoga, California, but had not yet located him. The affidavit filed along with the warrant indicates police secured a search warrant for Cleary’s Facebook account to link him to the message through a matching cell phone number.
The affidavit accuses Cleary, then a junior and a goalie on the ice hockey team, of stalking Shannon Keeler at a fraternity party in December 2013. He then followed her home to her dorm, sneaked into her room and sexually assaulted her, the warrant alleges. As he apologized and fled, Keeler texted friends on campus “OMG please Help me,” according to the warrant.
