In the case of Trent Mays (17) and Ma’lik Richmond (16) they both have been found guilty of raping a girl at a wild party in celebration of the high school football team in Steubenville. The girl was intoxicated to the point of being unconscious when the boys began to perform sex acts on the girl. Witnesses at the party had varying accounts of what happened. Some said that the girl was fighting off anybody that tried to take her away from the boys, while others say that was impossible because the girl was sleeping. Either way she was definitely too intoxicated to consent and the boys should have known better. Today they learned the hard way, as they both were found guilty of the crime and will serve two years mandatory for Mays and one year for Richmond. It’s really sad to see these youths be ruined by the system, but if you do the crime, you have to do the time. Hit the jump for more.
