A verdict was handed down in the Steubenville rape case today, with two of the young men being found guilty. It's a tragic story, but not for the reasons you might think -- you know the ones about the teenage girl being gang raped. There are other victims here too, CNN reported.
CNN’s Candy Crowley began her breaking news report by showing Lipps handing down the sentence and telling CNN reporter Poppy Harlow that she “cannot imagine” how emotional the sentencing must have been.
Harlow explained that it had been “incredibly difficult” to watch “as these two young men — who had such promising futures, star football players, very good students — literally watched as they believed their life fell apart.”
“One of the young men, Ma’lik Richmond, as that sentence came down, he collapsed,” the CNN reporter recalled, adding that the convicted rapist told his attorney that “my life is over, no one is going to want me now.” ()
This is difficult to watch. I guess the worst part really is that we'll never really get to see what life might've been like for these two otherwise, and what sort of bigger, more horrifying, and disgusting rapes they could have worked toward had their short careers as sexual predators not been cut short.
UPDATE: Not so fast on all the talking shit on 'male athletes as creepy rapists' though, every other type of guy ever.

Usually, the best time to expect free time on Xbox Live is when there is a gaming
event taking place (such as the launching of a new game).
Totally free Xbox live codes are also given by some console sellers as being a
definite incentive on buying Ps3 live. The second type is the almost
legitimate programs that are encountered less than the fake
type and has been created with good intentions and was filled
with legal, valid codes.
