By sunrise, though, some people in and around Steubenville had gotten word that the night of fun on Aug. 11 might have taken a grim turn, and that members of the Steubenville High football team might have been involved. Twitter posts, videos and photographs circulated by some who attended the nightlong set of parties suggested that an unconscious girl had been sexually assaulted over several hours while others watched. She even might have been urinated on.

“The thing I found most disturbing about this is that there were other people around when this was going on,” Steubenville Police Chief William McCafferty said of the events that unfolded. “Nobody had the morals to say, ‘Hey, stop it, that isn’t right.’

That is just a horrible situation all the way around.  I hope they eventually (preferably sooner) get to the bottom of it and if crimes were committed they are dealt with properly.

It also surprises me that this sort of thing doesn't happen more.  I could actually see this same situation repeating in places like Hoover and several other schools around Alabama.
