Friends of Labrie, who is now 19, told The Daily Beast that the ‘Senior Salute’ was a long-standing tradition at the New England boarding school that involved senior students attempting to sleep with lowerclassmen and keeping score of their conquests.
Labrie denies raping the girl, but told police he was “trying to be number one” in the ‘Senior Salute’ contest when he ended up on a roof of a building on campus one night with the alleged victim.
Labrie has pleaded not guilty to three felony charges, and repeatedly denied having intercourse with the girl, though he told detectives he did put on a condom.
