[quote=Anonymous]OP here: I get that evidence is important and concede that the victim appears to have made some bad choices that may have contributed to her being a target. (A somewhat separate issue is where were the adults that should have been guiding this 14 year old, monitoring her cell phone use, etc.) That said, the linked piece seems (to me) to be saying Jezic sees it his responsibility to basically make her life even more miserable by talking to friends/former friends/classmates digging for other possibly damaging comments they might be willing to say she did. Maybe there is a chance that at least some of the ugliness the defense will direct at the victim can be kept out of the media. I'm really hoping this doesn't end up like the O.J. Simpson criminal trial where the expensive defense attorneys outshone the less effective prosecution.[/quote]
