    As much as I joke about this statement, the way the world is today, somebody is going to get off using it for a rape case. "I don't know my penis just fell out of my pants and the rest is history." Drunk.....sixteen....passed out.....football hero.......threats to the girl who was raped......That is one fucked up town to say that the boys should go free......BUT......they probably are still clutching to WMD and caves in ToraBora. ha ha ha ha Losers!!!

    apparently all 3 major news networks have leaked the victim's name. i thought that it is illegal to publicly state names and show pictures of victims of sexual assault?

    way to go networks. i hope she sues the hell out of all of you.

    The excuse of those networks/press following suit was that the name was used in open court and broadcast - so already out in the open. :roll:

    It's not illegal. It's a "courtesy" on the part of media outlets.

    There have been a few other instances where a victim's name was disclosed.

    Really??? Just 'courtesy'? Even in the case of a minor? That's shit.

    The other examples I can think of weren't minors but I actually believe that the only legal requirement for confidentiality is for juveniles charged with crimes. It's pretty low to think that they'd publish the name of a minor victim. Usually they won't even publish names of the victim's family because the victim might be identified through them.

    This whole case makes me so sick.

    Steubenville Football Coach Gets Contract Extension After Involvement In Rape Scandal


    Reno Saccocia has been the head football coach at Steubenville High School since 1983. He has won 311 football games, made 23 appearances in the state playoffs, and captured three Ohio state championships. That, apparently, is all that matters to the school board that covers the high school, because it just gave Saccocia — who also may have covered up the sexual assault of a teenage girl by two of his players, according to court documents, and is the likely subject of a grand jury investigation because of it — a two-year contract extension.

    The extension is for an administrative services position, separate from a coaching contract. Salon’s Katie McDonough flagged the announcement buried in the local business section of the Ohio Valley Star:
    Two-year administrative contracts for Charles Kokiko, administrator; Bryan Mills, assistant middle school principal; Reno Saccoccia, director of administrative services; Joseph Yanok, middle school principal; Melinda Young, director of programs; and Sara Elliot, school psychologist.

    Covering up the sexual assault, which became front-page news across the nation this spring, would be a violation of Ohio law. But Saccocia’s players were so confident that he’d have their backs that the morning after the assault took place, Trent Mays, who along with Ma’Lik Richmond was convicted of raping the teenage girl, texted a friend: “I got Reno. He took care of it and shit ain’t gonna happen, even if they did take it to court. Like he was joking about it so I’m not worried.”

    A 16-year-old girl is assaulted, a player thinks “shit ain’t gonna happen” because he has a coach who will cover it up, and the coach willfully obliges. For that, the coach doesn’t get fired, but instead gets treated with the same “shit happens” attitude he apparently instilled in his players. There are no winners in Steubenville, no matter what Saccocia’s record on the football field says, because Steubenville is what America’s rape culture looks like.

    Tennessee Football Scandal:

    Former Tennessee WR Drae Bowles, who was reportedly attacked by teammates after assisting an alleged rape victim, claimed in a sworn affidavit that HC Butch Jones called him a traitor.
    Smoke just continues to billow around the Tennessee athletics department and specifically its football team. Bowles "broke down and cried" after speaking with Jones, according to the lawsuit, which went on to state that Jones called Bowles back to apologize for calling him "a traitor to the team." The calls were exchanged after Bowles was punched in the mouth by former teammate Curt Maggitt inside the UT locker room for allegedly helping the victim. Bowles transferred to UT-Chattanooga shortly thereafter. On Wednesday, two more females joined the sprawling and expanding sexual assault lawsuit. Jones was joined by fellow university coaches on Tuesday in a press conference defending the athletics department culture.

    I live an hour from Steubenville, Big Red has moved on completely. That town acts like this never happened, and I would be willing to bet in a few more years the students won't even know it happened at all.

    I call that school Big Rape, especially to the people I know who went there, that town's reaction to this mess should leave all of it's past, present, and future inhabitants severely embarrassed.
    But they aren't.
