going on about how, 'well, you have to call them alleged, even though they did it, but their moms will say they're good boys, never done anything wrong...' etc, etc., showing just how everyone in power from the mayor down was ready to railroad them without even going to trial. Kind of makes me think there should be some way for them to individually sue everyone who went around giving media interviews calling them guilty before the trial.
