Vid: Marc Randazza on Steubenville Rape, Defamation, and the Limits to Free Speech
Marc Randazza, who runs the law blog The Legal Satyricon, was a consulting attorney on the headline-grabbing Steubenville, Ohio rape case, in which a local blogger posted and commented upon photographs that seemingly implicated several of the town's high school football players in a gang rape. When the blogger subsequently was sued for defamation by one of the players, Randazza helped with her defense.

Anyone who played high school football in a small town will not be too surprised by what happened in Steubenville. Some people are sociopaths, and some of them are above the law.
