TIFTON — The police chief of Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College has been ousted after comments he made to the school’s newspaper about rape on campus.

The school’s President Dr. David Bridges made the announcement in a news conference Friday afternoon in Tifton.

Chief Bryan Golden made comments equating sexual assaults on campus with personal guilt, rather than criminal activity.

In The Stallion, the ABAC campus newspaper, Golden was quoted as saying:

“Most of these sexual assaults are women waking up the next morning with a guilt complex. That ain’t rape, that’s being stupid. When the dust settles, it was all consensual. It doesn’t happen here. It doesn’t show up here. They’re about as much a rape as a goat roping.”

ABAC’s president said the Golden’s comments don’t reflect the University or its police department.
