Only 1 year minimum for Richmond, 2 years minimum for Mays, with a max of up to their 21st birthday.

Not only did they get away with it, but so did their buddies who witnessed their sex acts and testified against them in return for FULL IMMUNITY from prosecution!

The Stuebenville Rape Crew lives on...

There are a lot of accomplices.They should also face the law.

We will see what the sentences are. I am very glad those animals were found guilty but I don't have much trust they will be punished properly.
