Judges 19

A Levite retrieves his concubine from her father's house in Bethlehem after she plays the harlot; en route home, they stay in **Gibeah** where a mob of perverted men demands the Levite for carnal knowledge, leading the host to offer his virgin daughter and the concubine, whom the Levite thrusts out to the mob; she is raped all night, dies at the doorstep, and the Levite dismembers her body into twelve pieces, sending them throughout Israel to outrage the tribes[1][2].
