I would be more inclined to believe the story in the NY Times. I know they are liars, but they are also much more reliable than Anonymous. The Times story shows more reality in that there is very little hard evidence one way or the other. As for there being ties to the sheriffs dept and prosecutors office with the Coaches and High School Football program. In a town of less than 20,000 ANYWHERE I would be shocked if that wasn't the case. How would a Prosecutor or Sheriff get elected if he wasn't active in the community. And in much of Ohio and the Midwest High School sports Especially Football IS the community.

I read the entire NYT story and it is little more than a swipe on the ‘poor rubes’ in Appalachia. Why can't they be as high class as the deviants in the Big Apple? However, it uncovers little to no real evidence. Neither does Anonymous. Rumor & Innuendo are not proof.

To me it sounds like there was most certainly shenanigans going on, but even with the State Prosecutor involved, it is going to be a very difficult to get a conviction. No physical evidence of ANY kind. No toxicology, No reliable Eye witnesses. Real tough case.
