I'd say it's time for her extremely distraught daddy to impose a little 9mm Texas justice and put one behind Rakheem's diamond encrusted earlobe. That'll give his daughter something to cheer about.
Took the words right out of my mouth. I was going to post wondering if this player was a future OJ in a criminal sense.

Its not like what happened is in dispute. Rakheem Bolton has now pleaded guilty to a crime in connection with the incident, when [Trigger Warning] at an after-game party, he and another athlete, Christian Roundtree, pushed her into a room and raped her. Now, most of us would wonder what kind of a moral lesson it sends when a school has a known criminal on its high school basketball team. Most of us wonder how on earth an educator (a career educator, with a comfortable six figure salary) could make the decision not to throw him off. One might even ponder the culture of athletics in a school where athletes work together to rape a young woman, at an after-game party.

“Appellants claim that after the arrest,
Sheffield told them that despite having enough evidence to go to trial, the grand jury was racially divided and therefore would not vote to return an indictment
against Rountree and Bolton, who were African-American.”\

I am shocked! Wonder from what diverse group of citizens the victim was from.
I'm still questioning her being at the "party" at all. And how many other cheerleaders were there?? Where's that little piece of the story. And if the other cheerleaders were there, why did she wander??
I agree with your thinking...Was she white or black??
Reason 92,326 why I’m not sending my girls to public school.
No. it’s a TRUE incident.
There is no exageration going on here.

Former football player sentenced

A former Silsbee High School football player pleaded guilty in court Tuesday to Class A Assault. The plea comes nearly 2 years after an incident in which he and another person were accused of attacking a cheerleader.
Rakheem Jamal Bolton, 19, is one of 2 people accused of sexually assaulting a cheerleader at a party in 2008. Bolton was sentenced to 1 year in the Hardin County Jail, but the judge suspended the sentence and placed Bolton on 2 years probation and fined him $2,500. Bolton must also do 150 hours of community service.
The other person charged, Christian Roundtree, 20, still has a pending case.
12 News HD’s Molly O’Brien has talked with the prosecuting attorney and will have more on this story tonight at 6 and 6:30 p.m.

EVIL prevails when GOOD men do NOTHING.
Did you see anyone run to support Crystal at Duke?? WQell, except the usual "black market" folks.
That's my question, too. Which side are the students on?
You forgot the electric drill. They make them in cordless now, doncha know ;-)
“When are parents going start removing their daughters from these human cesspools?”
When are parents going to start removing their daughters’ rapists from the planet?
He said that the average age of a graduating high school senior in Texas is 17.5 years. The average age of a graduating high school senior who plays football is 19.5 years.
They are holding them back, not one, but two years so they can be better players their senior year, and be more likely to get a scholarship so that they can not study at a bad school and come out with a worthless degree or no degree. Pathetic.
Her race, that she was at the ‘party’ makes not difference. She was forceibly raped. I am from Texas where we are taught to respect our women, regardless of race, religion or national origin. If that had been my daugher, the rapist would have begged for a nice safe jail cell before I was done with him. Then I would have gond after the principal.
yeah...young men always climb out the window when they've done nothing wrong...
rape will only be treated as the ultimate personal destruction it is when young men are routinely attacked by gangs of homosexual young men.....THEN we'll see action..
I have to ask why isn't the girl SUEING the pants off of the school district plus the "boy"...??
Nails, a wall, and a razor blade.
Killing the rapist as opposed to the victim might not qualify as an "honor" killing in certain communities, but removing these youths from the land of the living would be "honorable". And, speaking as a father with two daughters around the same age, taking a long time to do it in a sound proof basement with the school superintendent in the last chair would be "just".
Either way their school system isn't "all that".
It is a cultural thing from the old country.
