In 2012, two high school football players raped an unconscious underage girl. By the next morning, hundreds of texts and social-media posts crisscrossed the eastern Ohio community of Steubenville.
Many of the posts included photographs of the girl, which crossed the line into child pornography.
The case attracted worldwide attention and prompted conversations across the country about the misogynistic atmosphere of Steubenville.
