A former Gettysburg College student accused of sexually assaulting a classmate in 2013 and later sending her a Facebook message that said, “So I raped you,” has been detained in France after a three-year search.
A prosecutor in Metz, France, confirmed Tuesday that Ian Thomas Cleary , 31, of Saratoga, California, had been taken into custody last month and will be held pending extradition proceedings. Cleary had been the subject of an international search since authorities in Pennsylvania issued a 2021 felony warrant in the case weeks after an Associated Press story detailed the reluctance of local prosecutors to pursue campus sex crimes.
She went to authorities again in 2021 after discovering the Facebook messages that seemed to come from Cleary's account. “So I raped you,” the sender had written in a string of messages.“I’ll never do it to anyone ever again.”“I need to hear your voice.”“I’ll pray for you.”According to the June 2021 warrant, police verified that the Facebook account used to send the messages belonged to Ian Cleary.
