A Houston, Texas woman says she was gang-raped by Halliburton/KBR coworkers in Baghdad, and the company and the U.S. government are covering up the incident. Jamie Leigh Jones, now 22, says that after she was raped by multiple men at a KBR camp in the Green Zone, the company put her under guard in a shipping container with a bed and warned her that if she left Iraq for medical treatment, she’d be out of a job. “Don’t plan on working back in Iraq. There won’t be a position here, and there won’t be a position in Houston,” Jones says she was told. In a lawsuit filed in federal court against Halliburton and its then-subsidiary KBR, Jones says she was held in the shipping container for at least 24 hours without food or water by KBR, which posted armed security guards outside her door, who would not let her leave.

It felt like prison,” says Jones, who told her story to ABC News as part of an upcoming “20/20″ investigation. “I was upset; I was curled up in a ball on the bed; I just could not believe what had happened.” Finally, Jones says, she convinced a sympathetic guard to loan her a cell phone so she could call her father in Texas. “I said, ‘Dad, I’ve been raped. I don’t know what to do. I’m in this container, and I’m not able to leave,’” she said. Her father called their congressman, Rep. Ted Poe, R-Texas. Jones told ABCNews.com that an examination by Army doctors showed she had been raped “both vaginally and anally,” but that the rape kit disappeared after it was handed over to KBR security officers.



  1. “J”, you’re really creeping me out.

    Between your stalking, your continuing references to my penis, your deeply twisted views of sexuality, and your effeminate professional victim-ism, you seem like somebody regular people would be well advised to stay well away from.

    Now get back to your masturbation.

    “Between your stalking”

    Make the accusation again and you will hear from my lawyers. If you don’t think I can get your contact info from your ISP you are mistaken.

  3. >>Make the accusation again and you will hear from
    >>my lawyers.

    Pushy, pushy, pushy.

    And as to you getting my contact info from my ISP, tee hee hee! I’m choking in glee! You’re killing me, “J”!

    You really are a hoot.

    Tell me what my ISP is, and I’ll check with my ISP as to whether or not they’ll give you my contact info.

    Hee hee!

    I am not going to play games with you.

    Falsly accusing someone of a crime is slander.
    Slandering someone on-line is a crime.
    If you have comited a crime and I file a report I send it to DU and recieve your IP address. I then trace your IP to you ISP then I file notice with them. They intern not wanting to be sued will give over your contact info. If you are at work I will get that info. Either way you wont be able to hide

    I don’t car if you call me a douchbag or pushy Jew or what ever other racist bullshit comes out of your creative mind but if you falsly accuse me of a crime again you will have a serious legal issue on you hands.

  5. “J” – hee hee hee! Sorry to pop your balloon. Now, why don’t you shut the fuck up?

    Your Professional Victim-ism is really wearing thin.

    What’s a 19 or 20 year old, female civilian doing in Iraq? Does Halliburton hire anyone under 21 for overseas work? The main office is going to send a young woman where they will get lots of publicity if she gets hurt?

    I think I’ll wait for the rest of the story on this one.

  7. >>What’s a 19 or 20 year old, female
    >>civilian doing in Iraq?

    Hey, it’s Halliburton/ Cheney. Anything for a buck.

    Mister Mustard, we may disagree with each other (a lot) on matters involving religion…

    … but Jesus I support you in this thread. (ignoring “J” who’s being a dick).

    Anyone saying she should have expected it, or in any way is to blame is fucking scum. Period. Worthless trash, and devoid of any empathy whatsoever.

    Greg you my not understand the history. Or maybe you do and you are just a racist too.

    Mr. Mustard thinks it’s ok to run around calling East Asians “Orientals”. He also likes to make derogatory statements like “a lot of Jews are pushy”. Then in this post he accuses me of “stalking” him because I choose to comment on his staements. Well to falsly accuse someone of a crime is slander. Slander is a crime.

    What my friend Aron doesn’t understand is that I draw the line there.

    Now as to this issue

    “Anyone saying she should have expected it, or in any way is to blame is fucking scum. Period. Worthless trash, and devoid of any empathy whatsoever.”

    Couln’t agree more. They should be brought to trial ASAP.

  10. Oh “J”. “J”, “J”, “J”.

    Let me know when John C. Dvorak provides you with my ISP address, won’t you?

    As to your continuing Professional Victimization….snooooooooore…

  11. J says:

    You know what. I don’t want to bother John with such things so sinch I have friends at microsoft and you email is
    I shouldn’t have too much trouble getting what I need when I need it.

    Keep it up asshole!

    [deleted...ed.]

    Oh and you work for a Zoo in Tulsa.

    Well I guess It wasn’t really that hard to find.
    Now let this be a lesson to you. I don’t intend to sue you for slander because you are young, (29) by my estimate, and ignorant of the way the world works. But the next time you want to play slander with the big boys maybe you should think twice before doing so.

    #92 sue him, you arogant jewish prick, but ask moderator to remove his personal data from your post right away.
    It is fedeeral crime to publish anyone personal data on the web without his consent (unless im wrong, so why dont you make sure with your jewish cousin lawyer?)

  14. J says:

    # 93 PoliticallyVeryCorrect

    It is public information and he posted the links.

    And yes I think the point is made so if there is a moderator please go ahead and remove it.

  15. PoliticallyVeryCorrect says:

    “It is public information and he posted the links.”

    Then its all fine.

    Back to ignoring you :D

  16. J says:

    No your probably right. I think I made my point

  17. EdgyDude says:

    if they do this to their own fellow american you kinda wonder (and cringe)thinking what they probably do to iraquies

  18. Mister Catshit says:

    # 96 J,
    No your probably right. I think I made my point

    If you wear a hat, no one will notice your point.

    You’re just a smutty little asshole. You can’t discuss any point let alone debate ideas. It is my understanding that so far two people have been banned from posting at DU. Hopefully, you become the third.

    “You’re just a smutty little asshole.”

    It is so good to hear your view.

    “You can’t discuss any point let alone debate ideas”

    I think I do just fine. A bit on the argumentative side but I think I make valid points.

    Should I take lessons from you and start with phrases like “You’re just a smutty little asshole.” because that sounds a little bit on the aggressive and impolite side.

    “It is my understanding that so far two people have been banned from posting at DU”

    Really? I wouldn’t know.

    “Hopefully, you become the third.”

    Well I would think there are many that may be in line for banning. You know people like you who start their comments out like “You’re just a smutty little asshole.” I can’t remember but that may be against the terms of use. Since I don’t see a link to that anymore I am going off my memory.

    But I see your point. Anyone who stands up and calls out a hidden racist onto the carpet should be punished. Lets remember too that He told me to let him know when I got his info. So I did.

    I am not the one making racial slurs and calling people names(well I did call a few names but it was in response to the like, which is no defense but…)

  20. >>Keep it up asshole!

    Are you talking to me, boy? You are truly delusional. And a bullshit artist, to boot.

    [deleted: and if it keeps up, I'm shutting it down...ed.]

    If YOU want to “play with the big boys”, put on the Big Boy Pants. And suck it in, ya pushy bastard.

    Oh, and quit following me around.

    People might get the wrong idea.
