Is there a FReeper here who can tell me why a city/police dept would do such a thing to a rape victim?

Please FReepers I really want to know.

Are you sure you have the story correct? What do you claim the city/police did to the rape victim?

"Anonymous" exposed this cesspool of corruption...

They have a website Link

If even half of what they uncovered is true...many people should go to jail for a very long time...

The short answer is: government corruption.

We all saw a similar level of entrenched corruption in the persection and prosecution of the Duke Lacrosse “rapists” who didn’t rape the alleged rape victim.

This time, it very much appears that the flip side of government corruption is taking place, and a rape victim was maliciously persecuted, and possibly threatened with prosecution. Certainly she was extensively victimised by her rapists friends, and their families political connections.

I don’t have any inside knowledge of this case to contribute.

No matter the final legal verdict,there is obviously something very wrong with many of the people in that town.

OSU is in an uproar over one of its students involved in the gang rape, and for good reason. The idiot was in an incredibly cruel video boasting about it.

Well for starters it happened in August and no charges were filed until it made nation headlines in late December.

Most likely no charges would have been filed had the video of the boys boasting of their stupid crime not been posted by hackers.

Hanlin issues statement
January 6, 2013
From staff reports , The Herald-Star

STEUBENVILLE - Jefferson County Prosecutor Jane Hanlin issued a statement Saturday night regarding her involvement in the investigation into an alleged August rape incident involving a 16 year old Weirton female and two Steubenville High School students.

“My ethical duties as a prosecutor prohibit me from discussing the details of the case involving allegations of rape against two local juveniles until the matter has been resolved in court, Once the court proceedings have been concluded, I will be able to answer any questions the public may have and I have promised to do so,” said Hanlin.

“All allegations that me or my son or my home are involved in any way whatsoever in this criminal matter are 100 percent false. None of the alleged events occurred at my home. My son was not present at any time while the victim was alleged to have been unconscious, photographed, videotaped or sexually assaulted. Any statement to the contrary is 100 percent false,” Hanlin stated.
