Wait, they can't release the names of the criminals because they are minors, but they can plaster the victim's name all over the news... but she's a minor too?
 And yeah, I know one girl who didn't report when she got raped because she was 18 and the rapist was 17. The sole reason she didn't is because she was 18 and the rapist was 17, so her name would have been public and his name would have been confidential. It's so messed up.

In GENERAL, I agree with keeping minor's identities hidden but this is a case to me where that is not appropriate.

For anyone who's interested, the names and pictures of her rapists have gotten out and Tumblr has taken it on to spread the word. Their names and pictures have been circulating a couple of days

I'm not sure why they weren't tried as adults. I've seen so many lesser charges as well as murder bumped up, as young as 13.
Have to wonder if it's the "boys will be boys" attitude that still does exist, no matter what we'd like to think.
