In case you missed it, a 17 year old girl is accused of recording her friend get raped by a 28 year old man(who is the recorder's acquaintance).
I don't know how people would have the audacity to record rape. It'd be much worse if there were people watching the live video. While it's unfortunate, there's one good thing that comes out of the idiot recording this- she can't lie herself out of it. With actual evidence of her doing so, she won't be able to get out innocent.
Hopefully she's in for 10-20 years. Anything below 10 will be too little for such hideous actions. Remember, she recorded her friend getting raped. Hopefully the rape victim gets help treatment. I've heard of friends betraying each other, but recording them get raped? My god. |
What is maximum punishment for failure to help a person in danger and aiding and abetting rape in the US?
I'm asking because where I'm from there's no way anyone involved in this would get more than five years. Five years is the maximum penalty for rape around here (It's diffenrent if there multiple accounts of several victims but it's still a fucking travesty that the maximum penalty is so low) and I don't think someone, not actually perpetrating the rape could get more than the actual rapist, so I'm curious.
Also, this is really fucking disgusting. I have a hard time deciding who I'm more disgusted with, the rapist himself of the girl who filmed it all and probably arranged for someone who trusted her to be raped.
