They got off so light. Sorry for sending texts and pictures, not sorry for raping a person.. ugh.

Wow...

If they were tried as adults...they'd be going for to prison for a long time. The courts did them a favor in that aspect.
Which is crap..those guys knew exactly what they were doing.
Yup, I agree. I also think that the coach knew about this crap and he should be brought up on charges.

That is a HUGE what if. I'm not sure I understand why someone shouldn't go to jail for a long time for "ruining another's life," especially in this way. I agree that 20 years is extremely excessive, but 2 years is a disgrace.
This poor girl has a huge up hill battle to get to normal life, and I will be honest, she probably never will. It is going to be hard for her to ever feel safe. There needs to be a huge
societal change in that town and throughout the country. More education on how to prevent rape and the meaning of consent.
