Shockwave: Steubenville shakes kids beyond OH

NEED TO KNOW
  • Shock, shame felt beyond Steubenville, OH
  • Teens shed light into life of high school students

Right now in Steubenville, Ohio, two football players are standing trial for allegedly raping a 16-year-old girl at a party. The case caught the attention of the nation when video surfaced of a teen mocking and laughing at a video taken of the girl on the night in question. 

As parents, many of us began to wonder if what happened in Steubenville was representative of what's happening at high school parties across the country. We showed that video of the teen laughing at the alleged victim to a group of teens in Atlanta to find out what is really going on. The results surprised us.
