Two Teens Found Guilty in a Rape Case
Steve Almasy
Who: Two high school football players
When: This news report was written on March 17, 2013, and that is also the date when the boys were convicted
Where: Steubenville, Ohio
What: Two high school boys on the football team raped a drunk 16-year-old girl. Mays was sentenced to a minimum of two years in a juvenile correctional facility. Richmond was sentenced to a minimum of one year, but like Mays, he could be in detention until he is 21. The two will be required to register as sex offenders and undergo treatment while in detention.
Why: I think this is a news worthy event because its not everyday you see young guys raping people because it is usually older men, and sadly it's just really interesting for people to hear.
How: This news event took place because it just got worldwide attention, and it obviously took place because these boys did a very bad illegal thing.
