Police charge man with rape BY CHRISTOPHER WHITTEN News Reporter A registered sex offender who may have been living in an on campus dorm is in jail after being arrested by University of Memphis Cortney Adkins police for allegedly raping a student on campus. Police arrested 23-year-old Cortney Adkins, who has been a registered sex offender since 2010, on Monday and charged him with rape. He remains in jail on a $100,000 bond. Memphis police said the alleged rape occurred at about 12:45 a.m. within the Thomas G. Carpenter Student

Housing Complex. The apartmentstyle dorms are located adjacent to The U of M Child Care Facility and the Barbara K. Lipman Early Childhood Center. In 2008, Adkins was convicted of the rape of a child, and is serving part of the six-year probation sentence he received for that crime, according to court documents. Court records of Monday’s incident show Adkins lives in Carpenter; though according to The University’s email database he is not a registered student. However, Tennessee’s sex offender registry shows Adkins reported last month that he lived in Germantown in the 6700 block of Watergrove Avenue. According to a police affidavit of the recent incident, Adkins began kissing and biting the student victim on the neck, despite her yelling for him to stop. He continued to try removing her pants, the report said, and stuck his hand down her pants, then penetrated her with his finger.

The report goes on to say the victim continued shouting for Adkins to stop. Adkins later gave a formal statement to police admitting to sticking his hands down the victim’s pants and touching her while she was saying no, the affidavit says. University police are required to maintain a daily log of crimes on campus in accordance with the federal Clery Act, but Monday’s arrest wasn’t listed in the printed log located in Police Services’ office or in the online log posted on their website when a Daily Helmsman reporter checked around 3 p.m. Tuesday. The reporter noticed an entry of the sex offense in the online log around 5 p.m. and called Police Services. A dispatcher told the reporter to come to the office to speak to a supervisor in person, but when the reporter arrived minutes later he was told the supervisor had just left. A police dispatcher on duty at the time called Deputy Director of Public Safety Derek Myers, who was off duty,

Open Records Dispute BY MICHELLE CORBET News Reporter After a month and three days of

debate with University of Memphis Police Services and Legal Counsel, The Daily Helmsman is expected to obtain an incident report of a rape that occurred in Smith Hall in November. Originally, police and counsel

maintained the report was a confidential student record. Though The Helmsman provided them with legislation that stated any document taken for law enforcement purposes is open to the public, they contended the rape report wasn’t written down for police purposes. “The student does not want to press charges. They do not want to go through with it criminally. It is handled internally as a confidential student matter. At

and told him reporters were seeking information about the alleged rape. The reporter was told Myers wouldn’t speak to him and that he should have came to the office before 4:30 p.m. if he wanted any information. On Monday, Director of Public Safety Bruce Harber sent an email to the campus community warning them that two men were driving around campus stealing cell phones, but Harber made no mention of the rape. In a separate incident on Monday night, a man exposed himself at the Ned R. McWherter Library, but no email or Tiger Text was sent about the incident. Journalism major Laura Nelson lives in Carpenter Complex and said she was unaware of the rape. “Knowing that it was literally right around the corner makes me feel unsafe,” Nelson said. “I come out and walk through here at all hours, and I usually feel safe. Had I known, I would be more alert. We can help other people if we know.”

University releases some information on October rape after month-long struggle

that point it is a confidential student matter. It was not taken for law enforcement purposes,” Associate University Counsel Melanie Murry told reporters in a meeting March 1. It wasn’t until after the executive director of the Student Press Law Center sent a letter to legal counsel on The Helmsman’s behalf that Counsel agreed to release the rape report. “We have to disclose the report, but the open records law says we are not to provide any information that would lead to the identity of the student,” Murry said Monday, also noting she still didn’t agree with the releasing of the report. S h e said she couldn’t provide the exact citation of the law that allows the redaction of victim and suspect names until she had been advised further. She also said Memphis police do not release the names of rape victims. In the case of an alleged rape of a student that occurred on campus

Monday, Memphis police posted a detailed account of the offense, including the name of the student victim and alleged rapist, in an affidavit database, viewable to the public. The Helmsman seeks the names of victims, suspects and witnesses on all criminal reports in order to get a further explanation of what occurred, check previous criminal history of those involved and to know whether those involved are people of high importance or wellknown to the campus community. The paper’s policy is to never print the name of a victim without the victim’s permission and to not disclose the name of a suspect, unless he or she was charged with a crime. In a similar situation in 2007, The University redacted names of a victim, suspect and witnesses in a rape case, citing an exemption to the state’s open records act that they said allowed them to withhold information printed on a driver’s license from police reports. In response, Lucian Pera, a first amendment lawyer hired by The Helmsman, contended in a letter to University Counsel Sherri Lipman that the exemption did not apply to students or law enforcement records.

Black Power Mixtape BY ELIZABETH COOPER News Reporter As the race beat gains momentum in the media — locally in campaigns for the living wage and fair transit services and nationally following the shooting of Trayvon Martin — a screening of “The Black Power Mixtape” comes at a time of heightened racial awareness. The Progressive Student Alliance will show the documentary composed of archival footage from the Black Power Movement of 1965 to 1975 and contemporary interviews with musicians and activists on Thursday at 6 p.m. in room 250 of the Art and Communication Building.

Two former members of the Black Panther Party will introduce the film and conduct a question-and-answer session at the conclusion. JoNina Ervin, who served as the last editor of the Black Panther Party’s newspaper in Oakland, Calif. and wrote a book titled “Driven by the Movement – Activists of the Black Power Era,” said the film would help students understand the conflicts the black community faced during that era. ”Young people who weren’t born before 1975 can’t be expected to understand what was going on in the U.S. during that time,” she said. “After they watch the film, they will get that picture.” The film portrays prob-

lems the movement faced, including concern over the Vietnam War, public school failure, drug addiction and record levels of imprisonment. Ervin and her husband will discuss how the film relates to the current situation of African-American communities. “The conditions facing black people in the United States are worse now and the film helps show that,” she said. Kate Mauldin, a senior American Studies major who helped organize the event, said the PSA invited the Ervins because they wanted people who participated in the movement to create a dialogue with students about the issues that still exist. “Not only is it a struggle that is not over, but all of this still relates

specifically to the Memphis community,” she said. Two Swedish journalists came to the United States during the height of activism and filmed the conditions and culture surrounding the movement. For more than 30 years, the footage sat in the basement of Swedish Television before the documentary’s filmmaker, Göran Olsson, restored it and combined it with contemporary interviews and commentary to create “The Black Power Mixtape.” The original footage features appearances by key members of the Black Panther Party and the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, including Stokely Carmichael and Angela Davis,

while the new footage revisits several activists from the movement and includes interviews with musician-activists Erykah Badu and Talib Kweli. The musically driven documentary’s title alludes to the popular ‘70s practice of sharing music through making mixtapes, which the film incorporates into its cinematic style. Ahmir Questlove Thompson, drummer from the hiphop group The Roots, and Om’Mas Keith compiled the original score for the movie. Last year at Sundance Film Festival, “Black Power Mixtape” won the World Documentary Editing Award.

Rape

from page 1 “…it is clear,” Pera wrote, “that what is intended to be made confidential by (that exemption) is very specific and would not extend to all information that appears on a person’s driver’s license. Rather, it would apply to specific information, such as the driver’s license number and the state that issued the driver’s license.” In an interview on Monday, Murry said she interprets the exemption to mean any information listed on a driver’s license, including a name and said Pera’s letter explains his opinion of the law, which she interprets differently. Helmsman editors said The University not releasing names has been a problem in the past when Police Services declined to disclose reports involving student athletes. In 2006, two female students reported to campus police that then basketball players Joey Dorsey and Hashim Bailey threatened and assaulted them in a non-

sexual manner after a homecoming rally. When the victims tipped off a Helmsman reporter about the incident, the reporter requested the police report, but was told by Police Services that the matter was being handled by Judicial Affairs and was confidential. In that case, the student population would not have known the two were involved in an altercation if the victims had not told their story to reporters. The Helmsman does not know who was involved in the case at hand, which was reported to police on November 27. It was classified as “Sex Offense — Forcible,” and a brief synopsis of the incident stated the victim said she was sexually assaulted by her then boyfriend, who is also a student, in her dorm room in Smith Hall sometime in early October. Police didn’t send a TigerText about the incident and have said in the past that certain crimes, no matter the seriousness, are not a danger to the campus community because they are isolated and police believe the suspect will not attack again. Such was the case during the

Taylor Bradford murder in 2007, when police issued a lockdown of the campus but didn’t send an alert informing people there had been a murder on campus until six hours after the incident. The federal Clery Act mandates campus police records to be publically available, and requires police to report potentially dangerous situations to the campus community within a relatively short time period of their occurrence. According to the year-end Clery statistics, there have been 17 incident reports of rape taken by Police Services between 1995 and 2011. Monday’s reported rape will be included in the 2012 statistics, making it the 18th report. Derek Myers, deputy director of public safety, said in those cases five arrests were made and four cases were declined prosecution by the attorney general. In two cases, police never determined a suspect, and in seven instances the victim refused to prosecute. Every report is submitted to Judicial and Ethical Programs, regardless of the results of the criminal investigation, Myers said.

UM basketball coaches net contract extensions BY SCOTT HALL Sports Editor

With great success comes great reward — especially if you’re a high-profile basketball coach. Men’s basketball head coach Josh Pastner and women’s basketball head coach Melissa McFerrin have each been granted one-year extensions to their contracts, which will keep them in Memphis through the 2016-2017 season. The extensions come on the heels of successful seasons for both programs. Josh Pastner’s Tigers finished the season 26-9, (13-3 Conference USA) and won the C-USA regular season and tournament championships. They also played in their

second consecutive NCAA tournament before falling to St. Louis in a 61-54 heartbreaker in the West Region in Columbus, Ohio. The women’s basketball team also had a good season, finishing 25-8, (13-3 C-USA). They finished second in the regular season and were upset by Tulane in the C-USA tournament semifinals, 63-44. The Tigers earned their second straight invite to the Women’s National Invitation Tournament, defeating Chattanooga before a road loss to Missouri State ended their season. Pastner signed a five-year, $1.7 million contract extension last season following the Tigers’ loss to Arizona in the NCAA tournament. This time around, only the length of the contract has been extended without any increases in payment. McFerrin also received a contract extension last year, worth one year and $180,000. “We are very pleased with the efforts of our basketball coaches this past season,” said Athletic Director R.C. Johnson. “Our coaches are very visible in the community and have established relationships with their fanbase. Their public relations efforts have kept both a local and national spotlight shining on our campus and have made both programs highly successful.” Pastner holds a 75-29 record through three seasons, while McFerrin is 77-53 since joining the Memphis program in 2008. Pastner’s 75 wins are the most for a Memphis head coach in his first three seasons, and he is just the third Memphis coach to take the Tigers to the postseason in each of his first three seasons. The Tigers went to the National Invitation Tournament in Pastner’s first season, and have gone to the NCAA tournament the past two years. McFerrin has also guided the Tigers to three consecutive postseason appearances, taking her team to the Women’s Basketball Invitational in 2010, and the WNIT in 2011 and 2012. The Tigers have also won 20 or more games in each of the last three seasons under McFerrin’s leadership. The women’s team had not had a 20-win season since 2003-04 prior to McFerrin’s arrival.

Football

BY DAVID CAFFEY Sports Reporter After a breakout performance in this year’s National Football League scouting combine, former University of Memphis defensive lineman Dontari Poe has been predicted to be selected as the No. 9 overall pick in this year’s draft by ESPN’s lead draft analyst Mel Kiper Jr. Earlier this month, Kiper ranked Poe as the ninthbest overall prospect in 2012. Currently, the ninth pick belongs to the Carolina Panthers, the team that is home to the last U of M player to be selected in the first round, DeAngelo Williams. Last season, Poe was named to the 2011 All-Conference USA second team. After starting every game last season for then-head coach Larry Porter, Poe ended his three-year career in Memphis by declaring for the draft in December. At 6-foot-4 and 346 pounds, Poe impressed NFL scouts with his size and his combine-leading 44 bench-press reps. His 40-yard dash time of 4.98 also turned heads, coming in faster than 2010’s No. 2 overall pick DB Ndamukong Suh’s combine time of 5.03. For Poe, a native of Memphis who attended Wooddale High School, the breakout performance “didn’t come out of nowhere” and was a product of preparation and determination. “I put in a lot of hard work at Memphis and even before I got to college,” Poe said. “I knew I could do it, it just showed on national TV that day.” In his last season at Memphis, Poe recorded 33 tackles, three pass breakups, five quarterback hurries and a sack. He was also named team MVP and Defensive Player of the Year at last year’s football banquet. If Poe is selected as the ninth overall pick, he will tie defensive back Keith Simpson for the highest position at which a University of Memphis player has been selected. The Seattle Seahawks selected Simpson in the 1978 draft. Williams, the last Tiger to go in the first round, was taken at No. 27 overall by the Panthers in 2006. Poe was joined at the combine by his teammate, offensive guard Ronald Leary. After posting a 5.36 40-yard dash and 30 benchpress reps, Leary was ranked No. 27 out of 222 available OG’s in the draft by nfldraftscout.com. The senior from Baton Rouge, La. played 44 games on the offensive line during his career at Memphis. Teams have less than a month left to evaluate Poe as the 2012

NFL Draft begins on April 26 at Radio City Music Hall in New York City. Until then, Poe said working out is his main focus. “Working out never stops,” he said. “It’s the National Football League and I’m about to get ready.”
