I say, if the girl doesn't want to take legal action then let it be.

I am not on the jury or the judge.
Not my call.
But like any other person in the American court system, treat him like a felon and smear his name so when he is proven innocent it will forever be a stigma to his name.
If he did it shame on him, but I don't need to know his dirty laundry. It's between him, the girl, her family, and the legal system. |

That video was the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen... I'll admit it though, I've never seen the end, and that actually bothers me.
It also bothers me that this bothers me...
