- Turner Dixon was a University of Virginia student who was among a group of students that committed a violent sexual assault against an unidentified woman as well as acts of vandalism at Malcolm Crawford’s house. Faculty minutes, September 20, 1826, record that they have evidence Dixon helped perpetrate these crimes. Dixon admitted to throwing a stone and being present when an unidentified woman, referred to as Crawford’s “servant woman” was “stripped of her clothes.” Dixon and fellow perpetrator George Hoffman were “reprimanded at the heads of their classes” and their parents were informed.
