Steubenville Rape Update: Bystanders, coaches and parents will now be focus of Ohio AG Mike DeWine
"Rape is not a recreational activity," said DeWine.
Because of this, DeWine concluded that "this investigation cannot be completed without the convening of a grand jury." A grand jury can compel witnesses to testify. Possible charges that might result, said DeWine, are failure to report a felony, and tampering with evidence.
According to Ohio criminal code, "no person, knowing that a felony has been or is being committed, shall knowingly fail to report such information to law enforcement authorities." Rape is a felony.
Great. That punk, Michael Nodianos, needs to go to jail. He was 18, was there at the house (or 1 of the houses) where she was raped and joked about her being both dead and ‘so raped’. I don’t begrudge him his sick sense of humor, but since he’s 18, throw that sociopath in jail. And before he goes there, let him, for good measure, sweat a few pints of blood.
