I haven't heard anything of them in awhile.

Reminds me of the new law passed in Idaho criminalizing the taking of pictures inside of poultry factories.
One faces up to five years in prison for this crime and all, who do not work for the poultry industry, are forbidden from photographing inside these factories, ever under any circumstances. And further, if it is discovered that anyone applied for and got a job in a chicken factory, just to photograph the conditions, they would be subject to a five year prison sentence too.
Close your eyes and repeat after me, "with liberty and justice for all".

in my non-lawyerly opinion.

bit of legislation that has also passed in Utah and is being considered in other states as well.

I don't think the rapists themselves bragged about it over social media. It was other people at the party. (I think).

And pretty much everything that Anonymous dumped on the internet regarding the case was false. They may deserve thanks for keeping the spotlight here but the wild libel didn't help anyone.

"In 2012, two football players from the local high school sexually assaulted an unconscious 16-year-old girl over a period of several hours. The pair not only filmed the attack, they bragged about it on social media channels."

The tweets were from party-goers like Michael Nodianos (who quite possibly was not even at the party). There was another tweet from the girl's ex-boyfriend. The two teens convicted sent texts about it, but not tweets.

Since you are the boss and all.

So... No, it's not wrong.

Why am I not one bit shocked we have people defending even these rapists here.... Fuckin-A.

And defending it... That is defending the rapists.

Are you still going to claim the rapists did not spread their crime on social media? Still going to defend that?

Nodianos and Saltsman posted most of the tweets and the picture. Richmond tweeted about the party, but I never saw anything that said he retweeted what Nodiano and Saltsman (who were not rapists) posted.

Did they? That is new info for me.

In a photograph posted on Instagram by a Steubenville High football player, the victim was shown looking unresponsive, being carried by two teenage boys by her wrists and ankles. Former Steubenville baseball player Michael Nodianos, responding to hearsay of the event, tweeted "Some people deserve to be peed on,"

which was reshared later by several people, including Mays

. In a 12-minute video later posted to YouTube, Nodianos and others talk about the rapes, with Nodianos joking that "they raped her quicker than Mike Tyson raped that one girl" and "They peed on her. That's how you know she's dead, because someone pissed on her."[5] While he did not sexually assault the victim himself, Nodianos, a scholarship student at Ohio State at the time news of the rape broke, received numerous threats for his comments, as did his family in Steubenville, and subsequently dropped out of school.[6] In one text, Mays described the victim as "like a dead body" and "deader than Caylee Anthony" and in another he told the victim that a photo of her lying naked in a basement with semen on her body had been taken by him, and that the semen was his. In a text message to a friend afterwards, he said "I shoulda raped her now that everybody thinks I did," but "she wasn't awake enough."[7]

Still going to leave the bullshit there?

If that is correct, it really should be done.

Edit - And I don't mean what he said to me... I can take that easily enough. I mean the claim the rapists did not send their crime out over social media.

But he didn't say ANYTHING to `"defend" those two. Your attacks were out of line and I understand perfectly why he was so offended by them. It's possible he was incorrect, somewhat, but jumping on him as you did is a good example of what makes DU suck sometimes.

Then stood by it... What do you call that?

Nice dual hidden posts.

Irony rules.

He's the nice kind of rapist, who would never ever EVER brag about his rapes!

Why do you hate football?!?!?!

are the good guys in this...I do not agree but I think that was his purpose


good for pitt for keeping this in the light

what awful world do we live in when the people helping the rape victim get more time than the rapist

from the article...

Anonymous hacker Deric Lostutter faces potentially ten years in prison after he leaked damning video of the assault that proved the girl was already incapacitated. On the flip side, the teenage rapists he helped catch spent only one year in jail.

I've seen a photo of him. He's a slightly built guy. If he is convicted, he's sure to be raped in prison for years. (Meanwhile, the two high-school football players only had their wrists slapped as pathetic media personalities such as Poppy Harlow and Candy Crowley wailed over the "guilty" verdict.) Will anyone care (especially sports columnists)? The answer is "No!"

The rich and the powerful rule, not the people.

Can you supply cited examples of false statements (rather than editorials/opinions) pertaining specifically to this case Anonymous posted publicly? Thanks

And the owner of RollRedRoll was not getting pictures of underaged girls from the rape club which did not exist.

well, she's a good influence on him I think

I was all like...

And even though it hasn't even been made yet, I already feel comfortable saying kudos to Brad Pitt!
