IF this is true..... I don't think we can continue to point fingers at other countries for their rape laws, rapists or attitudes during and after the crime.

Except the Ohio police were alerted at first by social media. Without a victim at first and they started the investigation. In India police have encouraged women to marry their rapist. Our laws and process thank goodness are not the same. In fact law enforcement inaction is the exception and if it becomes systemic anywhere further law enforcement comes in and investigates and if need be the malfeasant is prosecuted

Then you have dumb ass misogynist judges who try to whittle away the rights of victims. Like that judge who said a woman's body could prevent rape. Or the dumb ass judge who said a woman who had sex with a man who broke into her apartment, while she was drunk and it was dark so she thought was her BF wasn't raped because of an obscure 1800s law that said it only applied to married women. W.T.F.?

Still the exception. Even India president took a long time say anything in the face of significant outcry.

Let's not get off track here. Those of you bickering on this thread - you each have valid points. But you are diverting angry energy away from where it should be focused. Please expend all your energy and outrage on either or both of these horrible situations and the institutional structures that allowed them to happen and then covered them up and refused to persue justice for the victims. Both are incredibly outrageous. Personally, i think that our first responsibility as US citizens is to do all we can to make sure such things are not allowed to happen here. However, that does not mean there isn't a place for speaking up for the rights of abused women all over the globe.

Ugh, I'm not going to watch the video, but it sounds horrible.

Steubenville is the birthplace of Dean Martin (1917–1995). Martin was a famous singer and actor, primarily through the 1950s and 1960s. In 1970, the band Wild Cherry was formed in Steubenville by Mingo Jct's Rob Parissi. In 1976, Wild Cherry's "Play that Funky Music" was number one on the Billboard charts for three weeks. The song is a staple of "disco" era music. It is also the birthplace of Dorothy Sloop (1913–1998), a jazz musician who performed under the nickname "Sloopy" and was alleged to be the inspiration for the song "Hang on Sloopy". The Stereos, an all-African American R&B Soul band/Group, also was formed in the city. Steubenville is also home to Wu-Tang Clan affiliates 4th Disciple, Beretta 9, and ShoGun Assason.

THE F*CK? There must be something in the water. This is a very small town to have produced so many "noteworthy" people. I don't think it's a stretch to say that the celebrity worship created an atmosphere where this could happen. This and other atrocities have probably occurred there --it just wasn't video'd before.

My DH has extended family in Steubenville. Apparently it's a big Mafia town and they control a lot of what goes on there.

I've seen other new highways over the years that were NOT needed and you wonder why ????? Perfect pork and earmarks for what?????

I am sorry I posted the long article from that source. In the article would help political junkies and activists alike understand this area is so corrupt and incident can easily get swept under the carpet. There have been many great Ohioan politicians but, this little pocket of hell produced Bob Ney. 'nuf said?

The article didn't look as long on my device. Sorry again. We have to stay on this one! DeWine said he doesn't want this played out in social media?!?! Feb. 13th is a LONG time away for this poor girl and her family.

I am a Republican and I say take it to the Civil Rights division of DOJ IF Atty Gen. DeWine and Gov. Kasich can not bring justice. This occurred in August. The parties were located at the original prosecutors' house, the Assistant Football Coach and a volunteer football coaches house?

Anonymous, you all are modern day Superheroes.

I can't believe that this isn't the lead story on every news outlet. Why aren't there media vans camped out in front of city hall. I am even more disgusted after reading the Anonymous webpage. All that corruption- it's like a movie.
