(39,997 posts)I read about the release of the video tape this morning (couldn't watch), but did not look at the site you linked.
"Cody Saltsman: Saltsman was originally charged in the gang rape. After a private back-room meeting at Naples Pasta House restaurant in Steubenville between Saltsmans father, the Sheriff and a certain Mr. Teramana (a wealthy Steubenville resident) Cody Saltsmans charges were mysteriously dismissed. Saltsman is a former boyfriend of the victim of this attack, and it appears there is quite a bit of bad blood between them adding a layer of vengence and viciousness that may explain the raw brutality of the attack upon this girl. Saltsman is perhaps one of the most repugnant individuals the LocalLeaks staff has ever encountered. His posts on Twitter and other social media show him to not only be completely callous regarding the horrendous abuse that he and his friends meted out upon their defenseless victim, but show clearly that this young man is an extremely dangerous sociopath who truly needs to be incarcerated.
Cody Saltsman sent many messages to people stating that nobody breaks up with Cody Saltsman, Ill ruin that bitch. This was a month before the rape. A few weeks later, Saltsmans best friend Trent Mays started texting the victim asking her for a date and pretending to like her and telling her over and over that everyone likes her and not to worry about Cody. He finally convinced her to let him meet her at her friends house and she remembers nothing past that point. A close personal friend of the victim received pics from her at 9:30 pm, and she was smiling and happy and with her group of girlfriends. An hour later she was unconscious and being viciously gang raped.
While the charges regarding the attack were dropped against Saltsman, he has provided ample evidence that he was present during this vicious gang rape incriminating himself with multiple photos that he took of the victim during the various parties she was transported to. Examine these two photos, one posted by Saltsman to his Instagram account and the other posted to Twitter by another member of the Rape Crew closely. These images are of another unknown victim of the Rape Crew published by Saltsman in 2011."
