PS: All this assumes, of course, that the story is true. If not, then maybe we have another Duke Lacrosse case. Who knows?
I live fairly close to this town and as soon as this allegation came to light there was immediate reaction to it pertaining to ANOTHER rape that had happened months before. Another girl and one of these same boys was said to be involved. There were also rumblings that these two are not the only ones who were victimized. The hashtag “rape crew” was also out there being used either by the actual boys or by some of the friends around them.
So no, we do not know the whole story, but to completely dismiss or defend the actions of the boys is crazy. The trial starts today and I hope there will be answers found for all the families involved. Makes me sad for our youth.
