2. The effects of the rape will haunt this girl for the rest of her life
Even with counseling, she is likely to have flashbacks. It can effect her physically in many ways as well as psychologically. Her self worth and feeling of safety have been shattered. That these defendants "seemed shocked" is disgusting. They should be locked up as long as the law allows. I only wish there was some way to treat the mindset that caused these boys to act like animals. Perhaps a study of their behavior and how this came to pass will help society deal with this sort thing better in the future. But that will not help the poor girl.
