Rape suspect: I was doing her a favor

A 22-year-old Club Med employee in Port St. Lucie is accused of raping a 41-year-old vacationer, leaving her bleeding and bruised.

He says the sex was consensual and he was "doing her a favor,'' the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports. He said it several times during an interview with police.

Brandon Charles Wester, a golf maintenance worker at the resort, told police the victim's bruising was from her falling three times, but also said the sex "might have been a little rough for her."

The victim suspects someone dosed the two Mai Tai cocktails she drank June 24.

Wester was held Wednesday in the St. Lucie County jail on $150,000 bail.
