Man arrested on sexual assault warrant; police concerned more victims exist
DENVER (KDVR) — In May 2024, a woman reported to Fort Collins detectives that an acquaintance had sexually assaulted her while she was incapacitated.
On Tuesday morning, the man accused of that crime turned himself into the Larimer County Jail after a felony sexual assault warrant was issued for his arrest. Police arrested Aaron Moore, 23, and he was given a $5,000 cash bond on Tuesday afternoon.

'We know that crimes involving sexual assault are often traumatic,' said Sgt. Dan Calahan, who oversees the Fort Collins Police Services Crimes Against Persons Unit. 'Our team of detectives and advocates are committed to guiding survivors through the legal system and supporting them on their path to recovery.'
In a release, police said the victim told officers she was part of a group of friends who were socializing and drinking in downtown Fort Collins. Afterward, she said she shared a ride with Moore to his residence, where the assault occurred. Police said they interviewed multiple witnesses about the evening's progression before requesting an arrest warrant for Moore.
Court records show that the alleged crime occurred on April 27, 2023.
Police said Moore was a Colorado State University student at the time of the assault and that CSU Police and the Title IX office are cooperating with the investigation. Detectives said details they've uncovered indicate that there could be other victims.

Hingham family files Title IX complaint after student creates deepfake image of their daughter
Megan Mancini filed a Title IX complaint in Hingham Public Schools after she says her daughter was a victim of sexual harassment. Mancini says another student created a Deepfake pornographic image of her daughter using artificial intelligence. 'She was devastated, I mean she definitely felt violated, she wanted something to be done about it, and at that point we had notified the school, the police,' said Mancini. After Mancini filed a complaint about the incident in January, Hingham schools launched an investigation. After about four and a half months, the district sent a letter to Mancini, saying that while the student's conduct was 'inappropriate and hurtful, there is insufficient evidence to conclude it occurred in the District's schools.' 'The image was shared in the school hallways, amongst other students during school hours, and it was also shared via text,' said Mancini. Mancini was disappointed to learn the student responsible for creating that nude photo of her daughter would not be disciplined at Hingham Middle School. 'It makes me feel like the school failed,' said Mancini. Legal expert Peter Elikann says families could press charges for this under the state's new Revenge Porn and Sexting law. 'The word needs to go out among young people that you can be criminally prosecuted in juvenile court for sending nude images of someone else without their consent,' said Elikann. He says that includes Deepfakes or AI-generated photos. 'The fact that people can create all kinds of fake pornography online, and young people seem to know how to do it, it's really hit a huge crisis point,' said Elikann. 'I think it's important to have swift action, and I think we missed that critical window,' said Mancini. Mancini hopes school leaders can start to take more action on these cases to prevent them from happening again, even if districts claim not to have jurisdiction. 'There was not one communication sent out from the school department or the school administration about this issue, and for you know, a heads up, awareness to parents that this is going on, this is going on in middle school, and it's going to get nothing but worse,' said Mancini. This conduct is becoming such a problem that the state has a youth diversion program to teach minors about the dangers of sharing nude photos, if they're prosecuted in cases like this.

Woman wants help after receiving $7,203 MLGW bill
MEMPHIS, Tenn. — A woman is calling for help after she received an MLGW bill that's worth more than $7,000. Tracy Moore told WREG there has been an issue since she moved into government housing in 2023. Moore said MLGW told her there was a water leak at the residence before she moved in; however, despite the repairs, the bill continues to increase. Memphis OKs 3% raises for city employees in new budget She told WREG that MLGW cut her lights off, due to non-payment; however, she says she will never be able to make enough money to pay it. 'The light company said it wasn't on they side, that it was on the owner. I do not own this home and I shouldn't be responsible for this big, outstanding $7,000 something water bill,' said Moore. Moore said she moved into the Section 8 housing property in 2023, and she's had issues ever since then. She said that her first bill was nearly $1,500, and when she contacted MLGW, they told her that the matter was under investigation.

Moore said MLGW told her the water leak appeared to be underneath the home, but a few months ago, the owner brought in a crew that made repairs inside the home.

'I'm taking care of three disabled. I'm working. You know, I'm trying. And so, you know, having car problems. You know, trying to get back and forth to work and all of this, it's really took an impact on us,' said Moore. Moore said she hopes the issue gets fixed sooner rather than later. She said MLGW previously removed $700 from her bill, but they told her that the remaining balance is her responsibility. WREG also reached out to the utility company, and they said they can only release information to the account holder. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Fact Check: Clarifying claims Louisiana voted 'to force a 9-year-old girl to deliver her rapist's baby'
Claim: In early June 2025, Louisiana lawmakers voted "to force a 9-year-old girl to deliver her rapist's baby." Rating: What's True: In early June 2025, Louisiana lawmakers rejected a bill that would have added exceptions for rape to the state's abortion ban, specifically allowing young rape victims to terminate their pregnancies. What's False: The proposed bill did not reference or target any specific case of a pregnant 9-year old. What's Undetermined: The claim originated from Louisiana state Rep. Patricia Moore's mention of a pregnant 9-year-old girl in her district. However, she did not provide additional details, and we were unable to independently confirm the existence or circumstances of the case. In early June 2025, a rumor spread that Louisiana lawmakers voted to deny abortion to a 9-year-old rape victim. One X post (archived) on the topic, which as of this writing had over 958,300 views, read, "Louisiana votes to force a 9-year-old girl to deliver her rapist's baby." It also quoted Democratic state Rep. Patricia Moore allegedly saying, "I'm constantly hearing that God would take a bad situation and turn it into good," additionally claiming that Moore spoke out against the bill "even after being made aware of the pregnant 9-year-old girl living in her district." Another Facebook post (archived) making the claim, which amassed over 25,000 reactions, read, "If a 9-year-old walked into an adoption agency with plans to be a mother, they would laugh her out of the room and explain that she's too young to become a mom. But if a 9-year-old is raped, conservatives believe he's the perfect age for motherhood." Similar claims spread on social media platforms including Instagram (archived) and Reddit (archived). In short, the claim was a mixture of true, false and undetermined information. In early June 2025, for the third year in a row, Louisiana lawmakers rejected a bill that would have added exceptions for rape to the state's abortion ban. Namely, the bill would have allowed young rape victims to terminate their pregnancies. However, the proposed legislation did not reference any specific case of a pregnant 9-year-old. The claim stemmed from a statement by Moore, who said she was aware of a 9-year-old girl in her district who had become pregnant. We were unable to independently verify the existence or circumstances of the child mentioned. We reached out to Moore to request more details about the case of the pregnant 9-year-old and will update this story if and when we hear back. Louisiana's abortion ban took effect in 2022 following the U.S. Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. That decision eliminated federal protections for abortion and allowed individual states to set their own laws. Under the state's law, abortion is banned except in limited cases, such as when the pregnant woman's life is at serious risk, the fetus is "medically futile" or in cases of ectopic pregnancy or miscarriage. There is currently no exception for rape or incest. The in-question legislation was Democratic state Rep. Delisha Boyd's third attempt to create exceptions to Louisiana's abortion law. The proposed bill aimed to allow abortions for victims under 17 who became pregnant as a result of specific offenses such as rape or sexual battery that, if committed against a minor, would make an abortion legal in those cases. The bill said the victim wouldn't need to provide a police report, forensic evidence or proof that someone was being prosecuted for the crime in order to get the abortion. Legislators discussed the bill during a House Committee on Administration of Criminal Justice hearing on June 3, 2025. As shown in the image below, the bill that "provides for exceptions to the abortion laws of this state relative to rape and certain sex offenses" received three votes in favor ("Yea") and nine votes against ("Nay"). Therefore, the law did not proceed to the House floor for further consideration. (Louisiana House of Representatives) You can access the full text of the in-question bill here. A video circulating alongside the claims on Louisiana "denying abortion to 9-year-old rape victim" originated from an April 11, 2025, KLFY News 10 segment that aired before legislators voted on the bill. Moore made the statement about the pregnant 9-year-old during the hearing at 38:57 of the video recording available via the Louisiana House of Representatives' official website. Moore stated that she was "aware of a nine year old, in [her] area, pregnant" and that she was struggling to reconcile her feelings about the case with her religious beliefs. Moore also added that her mother was raped at the age of 13 and had her at 14. "So I do struggle with it. I know we got to protect our children, but this point right now, I cannot vote yes," she said. Boyd, who authored the bill, also mentioned she was aware of a "Louisiana girl who was raped and gave birth at 13 years old and a 9-year-old girl who became pregnant after being sexually assaulted." All in all, while it's true that Louisiana lawmakers rejected a bill that would have allowed abortion in cases of child rape, there was no confirmed evidence that the decision directly affected a specific 9-year-old. Moore mentioned being aware of such a case during the hearing but provided no details, and we were unable to independently verify the claim.
