Anon just made good on their threat to release complete information about the people involved in the case Partial quote: > [@](#): > > Greetings Citizens of the world, We are anonymous, We are knightsecc. Around mid-August 2012 a party took place in a small town in Ohio known as Steubenville. At this party are a list of men named in the prelimenary dox below who took part in the kidnapping and rape of a 15 year old girl. This video is to document the proof for the masses. The town of steubenville has been good at keeping this quiet and their star football team protected. Their school website shows how high the football team is held in regards to education with no links to academics what-so-ever. Even the founder of the school website Man o War offers his opinion here, “enough with the hyperbole, how can she be “scarred for life” if she supposedly can’t remember anything?” On this fateful night a life was changed forever as a group of the football players of Big Red High School, dubbed themselves “rape crew” and began taking advantage of an underage girl. The girl was sexually assaulted, molested, raped, and drug unconcious from party to party. This is a warning shot to the school faculty, the parents of those involved, and those involved especially. A preliminary dox is being released on some of those involved, while a full size dox of everyone involved including names, social security numbers, addresses, relatives, and phone numbers is being compiled as you watch this video on every single member of the football team, those involved, the coaches, the principle, and more. This dox will be released unless all accused parties come forward by new years day and issue a public apology to the girl and her family. Make no mistake, all you need is a google search engine to realize we are serious in what we do. You can hide no longer, you have attracted the attention of the hive. We will not sit idely by and watch a group of young men who turn to rape as a game or sport get the pass because of athletic ability and small town luck. You now have the world looking directly at you. > michael nodianos, > Cody Saltsman, > Jake Howarth, > Jordan Banks, > Ryan Vodich, > Harold Malone, > John Linn, > Dashon Redman, > Anthony Craig, > Evan Westlake, > Mark Cole, > Malik Richmond, > Trent Mays, > > Current principle and faculty, you would be wise not to sheild the guilty.

There may be a Jane Doe #2 against the same “Rape Crew” - a tweet? comment? who knows where the girl claims to be going to the police dept to file a complaint.

So, because I am bored between clients, I went to a few of the Twitter pages for the boys that Anon links to. If one of these boys was my son— and even if I thought they were totally innocent and the victim of a witch hunt-- I would immediately block my kid from any social media. And yet. . . these boys are still posting shit on Twitter like this exchange: > [@](#): > > [A different Twitter user] > Nodianos clearly admits to rape on the leaked video, yet the police say the video contains no evidence and Nodianos has not been charged. > > [Accused boy] > Michael C. Nodianos ‏@NODIdamus > @PLF2012 I Said I raped her, you did not see me do it :0 That same kid is Tweeting with the following hashtag “#RapeCrew4Life!” Jesus tittyfucking Christ. . . ---

According to Nodianos’ attorney his client’s Facebook and Twitter accounts were closed after the video surfaced. He says someone opened new accounts and has been posting as him. The video of Nodianos has been in the hands of the authorities from the beginning and has been in custody of the state attorney general’s office since the local prosecutor recused herself. ---

Rather than being ignored by the local media, the story was reported in August, a few days after the crime. It was the topic of discussion on local talk shows for a few days, but was handled carefully because the victim and the accused are all minors. ---

> [@Really\_Not\_All\_That\_Bright](#): > > True. I don’t think that necessarily warrants ruining the rest of their lives, as has been suggested, though. Why the fuck not? They’ve ruined that girl’s life. I think it’s the least that can be done, frankly. And every rapist engages in an average of 6 rapes. It is a recidivist thing. The best thing that can be done with these young males is to remove them from society completely. I for one am not concerned for their well-being in accomplishing this. > [@Typo\_Negative](#): > > I advocate that very thing. As do I. ---

> [@madmonk28](#): > > Yeah , I’m ok with ruining their lives. They’ve ruined their own damned lives. At least a couple of decades locked up will keep them out of trouble for a while. Perhaps as an object lesson they will help prevent some future rapes. We can hope. ---
