1. The girl might be confused about the legal definition of rape.

I don't really wish to get too graphic, but I read somewhere that a witness saw him digitally penetrate her. That is rape if she could not give consent.

2. She was unconscious--

That seems pretty clear from the pictures. I can't imagine having a daughter in that school. Having to walk through school knowing the "The Rape Crew" is there, waiting for you to piss them off, has to be a traumatic experience for any kid there.

3. The attorney for the victim, Bob Fitzsimmons is the number one

attorney you would want on your side in the Ohio valley. He will get to the bottom
of the case no matter who may be involved, you can bank on that.
