On the morning of Sunday, August 12th, 2012, a 16-year-old High School student, Jane Doe, woke up in Steubenville, Ohio, about 15 miles from her hometown of Weirton, West Virginia. She woke up in a strange basement and had no idea where she was. She was missing her earrings, underwear and cell phone. In the room with her were tow boys, aged 16 and 17, named Trent May and Malik Richmond. Jane remembered very little from the night before, only that she had been at a few parties with the Steubenville Varsity Football players, and, after texting some friends, that she had also been raped.

The following year would bring chaos to Steubenville, Ohio. Accusations, denials, lawsuits, hackers, crime blogs and an article in the New York Times would divide this small town. It was their word against hers, and they were the star football players. Until damning evidence in the form of text messages and a video came to light.
