Accused "Riverside Rapist" and alleged con man Hugues Akassy is on trial for sexual assaulting, stalking, and harassing five women in upper Manhattan. The trial raises many questions: Did he do it? How did he evade arrest for so long? And where did he get that smashing ascot?

Want to look weird? CNN Anchor Roland Martin has launched his own line of ascots, after his eccentric neckwear was immortalized by a Daily Show segment. Cool, but Don Lemon will always be our CNN style icon of choice.

For some time we'd heard about someone named John Munson, though we'd never met him. Then on Friday we turned on Jeopardy and saw an ascot-wearing contestant with a phallic signature introduced as a "gadabout". It was John Munson.
