Two Boys Sentences to Juvenile Jail
It has been stated in the article, "Ohio Teenagers Guilty in Rape That Social Media Brought to Light" published by Richard A. Oppel Jr. in The Huffngton Post, that two high school footballer players were found guilty for raping a intoxicated sixteen year old female at a party. The boys were treated as minors and were sent to juvenile jail. Also, one of the boys was found responsible of taking nude pictures of the girl and spreading it for the whole school to see. Furthermore, these pictures and pictures taken by other high school students serve as prove for this rape.The latter magnifies the students ignorance and negligence for the girl's safety. The judge made it clear that they could have been treated as an adult, due to the seriousness of the crime. However, it chose to sentence one of the boys with a minimum of one year in juvenile jail. As for the other football player, he received a minimum of two years in jail, because he was the one taking the pictures and sending it to other students. The judges hopes that these two boys, and other teenagers, realize the dangers of underage drinking and exchanging violating and inappropriate pictures.
