She made impact with a punch to the rapist’s stomach but impact of the strike was ineffective, and she was subsequently raped. This violent rape in San Diego was the catalyst that changed the way women are taught how to defend themselves against rape aggression. Research into how women were assaulted took place and then was combined into a fast self-defense training system that took on the name Role Model Mugging, and later shortened to Model Mugging
