They’d be blaming the girl if she’d been murdered, too.
The fact is, one of the parties took place at Hanlin’s home, and then she attempted to discourage the girl and her family from making a report. She also got the case moved to juvenile court before she bothered to resign for conflict of interest.
I haven’t paid attention to this case, so the name Hanlin isn’t familiar to me.
But I’ve noticed there is usually a reflexive action to protect boys who do such crimes, particularly if they’re involved in competitive sports.
This is not always the case but it happens often enough to be immortalized in fiction and movies.
She participated in a case where she and her actions were part of what was on trial.
Sounds sort of like Kagan and Sotomayor. I guess if they can get away with not recusing themselves as judges in the highest court in the land, then why should a mere prosecutor show integrity?
When do the arrests and civil suits start against those that provided the party house and booze?
