Sergeant Rebekah Havrilla alleges in the complaint that in 2006, after her
military supervisor repeatedly sexually harassed her, she was raped by a
colleague she was working with at the time.
"He pulled her into his bed, held her down, and raped her. He also
photographed the rape," it reads. Havrilla reported the incident within a
month.
In February 2009, she reported for active duty training and, upon seeing her
rapist, went into shock.
"She immediately sought the assistance of the military chaplain," the
lawsuit reads. "When SGT Havrilla met with the military chaplain, he told
her that 'it must have been God's will for her to be raped' and recommended
that she attend church more frequently."
The complains adds that "SGT Havrilla suffers from post-traumatic stress
disorder and chronic depression."
