Open Letter to Anonymous and the one they helped, Jane Doe
Anonymous...just THANK YOU.
You have given many rape victims hope. You have probably stopped the Rape Crew from ever raping again en masse. Individually, there is probably no hope for any of them, but your shining the light on the torture of a school girl in Steubenville has made everyone in that town think twice about what kind of people they are - and what kind of people they need to be.
They are sociopaths who hid this torture, but now the world is watching them like hawks. And now the schoolgirls in that town know that someone cares. NO ONE in Steubenville seemed to give much of a damn except one blogger ,but you can bet, thanks to you guys, EVERYONE in that town cares now, even if they are the scumsuckers who hurt this child or let her be hurt.
As a female, I am sick to death of girls and women being treated like nothing, like they don't matter. This girl matters to me. Her pain matters to me. The horror she went through matters to me. Others might dismiss it as a "so what?" I can't do that.
I know about that horror because her attackers showed us who they are. THEY did that. I didn't have to assume anything.
And I know that this young woman needs support, because the defense is going to attack her unmercifully. As if her gang rape weren't already enough. They are going to call this 16-year-old child a slut, a whore, say she was asking for it, find people to lie about her, attack her parents, her grades, her clothes, her friends. This is why rape goes unreported, and why she and her family backed down when the fucked up sick perverted prosecutor cajoled and betrayed this young woman - to protect the prosecutor's precious little rapist son.
In a just world, this would never happen. Second best would be for her attackers and their enablers to stand up and take their punishment. They and their town refused to do the right thing, so they got exposed by you.
Thank you, thank you, thank you Anonymous, for treating this girl's life as important, for caring so much about a human being others treated like trash.
Thank you, and to the girl herself, I am sorry they will see nothing better to do than attack you. You are 16. You should not have to be dealing with this crap because THE RAPE CREW and the SHERIFF in that town and the COACHES in that school and the PROSECUTOR who let her home be used as a place of your torture made really bad choices. Because they used you like you weren't even another person. I am so sorry.
Jane Doe, I hope you can stay strong as they continue to rape you for their own benefit.
You matter. You are not at fault. You DID NOT DESERVE THIS.
Full disclosure: this was a post in another thread. I was asked to make it an OP, so here it is.
= new reply since forum marked as read
thundering 
I've been haunted by this story since I first heard of it.
was talking about Ohio's obsession with football, and how if your kid doesn't play ball or cheerlead, they are considered losers. Even if they are high achieving students otherwise.
She pulled her younger girls out of cheerleading when they expected the 7-9 year olds to wear heavy makeup and dress provocatively "for the team."
It's 2012, and past time for humans to get their shit together.
I'm just glad to live in a time when people like Anonymous easily and thoroughly OUT the demons among us.
Some day, some way, we will view each human as having value, as more than a sum of their body parts, as far more sacred than a toy for one's entertainment.
I will keep fighting to see that day arrive, and I know you will as well.
Thanks for the kick, freshwest.
normaly i dont know how to reply to these , but this is bullying to the extreeme. bravo to anonymous for speaking out in favor of the victom. last nite on the news , the accuesd spoke . you never hear from the victom, nor the liberal when the press wants to talk . i soooo want to see the alledged perpertators so go down. i cant stand sports for this very reason. seems that if one is of privlege, as these young men on the football team , millinares , politicians etc seem never to go down. where are the parents of the 16 yo female who these thugs attacked and why arnt there other people who just stood by and watched as well being hauld in. is it because of "connections" ?hem. bangs head on desk . thank u to the poster who brought this foreward. i so 
this story.
Full agreement, kick and a rec. Thank you!
Thank you. I don't know if Jane Doe will ever read your words, but I hope someone is saying the same thing to her, every day, for the rest of her life, if necessary. I have a 14-year-old daughter, she is a freshman in high school, and this touches me deeply.I hope your daughters always stay safe
Thanks for thanking Anonymous ( and I did go thank them at their site too! ) and for showing support for the young lady who was tortured in Steubenville.
Some of my beautiful neighbors are going to help me get some onerous farm duties done, so I have to stay off DU 
if I can lol and get ready for them and can't answer you each directly.
But I thank you all again for your concern for this girl. She MATTERS to us.
Moving.
I think the old world DID end in 2012.
I think people are going to be forced to face the consequences of their actions.
I'm not much of a fan of most of the Bible, but I love this:
Everything hidden will be revealed; what you whisper in your closet will be shouted from the rooftops!
I always hoped that one prophecy would come true. Seems Anonymous was foretold in Scripture, lol
...because I didn't catch it in the other thread. Yes, thank you to Anonymous for exposing this atrocity. Hopefully this young girl will get the health support and psychological counseling she needs to rise above it. The added benefit of exposing this is that it has gone global and people everywhere will be exposed to what is going on in our world. I hope that this topic comes up soon at school boards, town councils, and yes even church boards all over our country. Education and public notice that any and all physical assaults of any kind will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law is the most important step in eradicating this kind of behavior.
I am hoping every jock culture in the country is listening
even if I didn't get to thank you each individually, I so appreciate your words. And thank you to all who rec'd it. It means a lot to me that you all care so much.
and keep sending love to that girl. 
She will need all we can send to her in the days to come.
from babies killed at school to young girls at the hands of The Big Rapists in Steubenville, we have a very dangerous, sociopathic society that fails at its most basic job: keeping its children safe from harm, from murder, from violence.
I finally got on the NYT article and am close to tears over the girl's mother's words:
http://www.nytimes.com/2012/12/17/sports/high-school-football-rape-case-unfolds-online-and-divides-steubenville-ohio.html?pagewanted=all&_r=1&
At a hearing last month, the girl’s mother said her daughter remained distraught and did not want to attend school. The girl’s friends have ostracized her, and parents have kept their children away from her, the mother said.
The girl does not sleep much, said the mother, who testified that she often hears her daughter crying at night.
The mother said the obsession with high school football in Steubenville is partly to blame. It shocked her that Saccoccia testified as a character witness for the defendants last month, she said.
In the courtroom that day, she remembered thinking, how dare he?
“Just Coach Reno saying he would testify for those boys, saying he was so proud of them, that speaks volumes,” she said. “All those football players are put on a pedestal over there, and it’s such a status symbol to play for Big Red, the culture is so different over there.”
The mother added: “I do feel like they’ve had preferential treatment, and it’s unreal, almost like we’re part of a TV show. It’s like a bad “CSI” episode. What those boys did was disgusting, disgusting, and for people to stand up for them, that’s disgusting, too.”
So this school girl, an athlete and an excellent student, has had her entire LIFE destroyed. THAT'S what rape does - it isn't the way some men apparently see it: To them, rape is some guy who forcibly masturbates into a girl and zips up his pants and the horror is over.
NO way. The horror and the shame and the guilt and the pain go on sometimes for the rest of a victim's life.
And that goddamned Saccoccia makes me ASHAMED to be half Italian. Threatening a reporter like he's some kind of GANGBANGING THUG?
SACCOCIA was directly responsible for who was allowed to play after the fact. He should be PUBLICLY SHAMED every day he walks his Godforsaken town. And the Principal sounds like a scaredy cat weasel who lets the coaches run his school.
I just hope that the young woman knows so many care.
I hope, especially after reading that she is having a rough time, that she has found a brief bit of solace in Anonymous sticking up for her and exposing the criminal slime that is Steubenville, Ohio.
here's a
for you. Just spend a moment sending love to this child, any time you get overwhelmed with the anger. I try to do that.
It works sometimes.
She needs all the good vibes she can get.
((((((((Kalidurga))))))))))))) (((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((Jane Doe)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
and I want to give a shout out to http://localleaks.blog.ru for their exposing this story - I believe before Anonymous did their wonderful deed for this gal.
Either way, they deserve thanks as well for showing us the faces of evil in Stupidville.
The rapists just dumped her in front of her house like an empty beer can.
They are sick, sociopathic, empty souls.
Okay, time to send love to that child again, before I start thinking evil thoughts instead. 
I really needed to read your words.
There are far more good men in the world than evil ones. The evil ones simply grab all the power they can because they know without that hold over other people, they can't do their filthy, disgusting, horrific and selfish deeds.
Thank you for your support of the young victim. Send her all the love and thoughts of peace and strength you can muster. She is having a really tough time.
And a
for you
All of my everything. This. Absolutely this.

You are so correct, Zorra. We are all Anonymous.
And we all have to keep speaking up, making those phone calls, exposing the corruption.
Love the H20 Man quote as well.

And please everyone do keep sending good vibes to that sweet child who was so brutally treated by the town of Steubenville.
I would wish this girl knows how many people are pulling for her. Knows that she's not alone and that there are so many who have her back....
Great, great letter Tsiyu!!
Stay strong Jane Doe. The wheels of justice are turning slowly in your case but they are finally beginning to turn...
