Daiz a rell hard luck story for the young lady and the young man.
On the evidence, it certainly seems as if it was not enough to convict the youth.
Good thing I never went out much as an undergrad or got mixed up in such a bad situation.
My prayers are with the victim's and youth's family.
Screw the victim. These american parents let their kids grow up any old how, doing whatever they want and when something bad happens or a situation they cannot handle they blame someone else. I hate reading stories like these is pisses me off. You read how much she has been out drinking and doing whatever? She obviously does not care about her safety. Imagine on the day you get your drivers' permit back from a DUI suspension you go out drinking. Not an ounce of responsibility to herself, much less towards others.
I see it everyday, mothers especially, growing up their daughters in such a manner that in the long run they will feel the pinch. No lessons of responsibility, respect or concerns for other. No teachings in looking towards the future and how decisions made now can and will affect your life later on. So don't call her a victim. She remembers exactly what happens, it's just that she remembered what happen after she filed the claim and the memory is that of her boyfriend. She is a definite alcoholic, she is having black outs and cannot abstain from drinking.
I can't see how this case even made it to the court room. Land of the free.
