75. You need to read news reports of the probable cause hearing last October.

Here's one:

Several witnesses report they filmed multiple rapes of the victim at various houses. Instead of charging those students, the local authorities simply picked them up as witnesses for the prosecution of the two students who were charged. The local authorities claim that they were unable to retrieve data, including tweets, photos, and video, that had been deleted from cell phones and posted on the internet. This is either gross incompetence or obvious malfeasance, since it is quite easy to obtain "deleted" files from the internet server. All the police had to do is ask, but they didn't bother. Any divorce attorney knows how to get that kind of information.

Multiple witnesses swore under oath that they witnessed the rapes, they witnessed and participated in the consumption of alcohol by minors, that these assaults and other crimes took place at multiple houses, etc.

Also, upthread you state that the prosecuting attorney who is the mother of Keenan, one of the witnesses and a host of one of the parties who observed the rape taking place, is not involved. She was involved for several months, and she discouraged the victim and her family from pressing charges. The assault took place in August and the attorney didn't recuse herself until October.
