Police searched an iPod as evidence in a rape case after his accuser recounted that her attacker had recorded the incident.
According to court documents, Kerry LePage of Raleigh, North Carolina was arrested in May for second-degree rape. The woman pressing charges said she remembered that LePage had an iPod in his hand during the attack. The iPod was later found between the mattress and box springs and is being held by police.
This isn’t the first time the iPod’s video recording has landed it in police custody: an iPod Touch’s large storage capacity and big screen were at the center of a middle-school sexting scandal and some teens were recently apprehended after filming a theft with an iPod.
