In Ohio rape case, ‘never said no’ does not mean consent
The trial involving two teenagers accused of raping an intoxicated teenager has divided the small community of Steubenville, Ohio, as some rally behind the accused perpetrators, stars of the local football team, while others say the victim was too drunk to protest.
The issue has been further complicated by the fact that some 40 high schoolers looked on as the girl was carried from party to party, snapping cell phone photos and taking cell phone videos but never intervening, calling authorities or even putting an end to the abuse.
Host Jamila Bey spoke with Beth Presswood, host of the Godless Bitches podcast, to discuss the case.
