Ohio AG seeks grand jury probe in teen rape case
Well, shocker. I can't believe I support Mike DeWine in anything:
Two members of Steubenville's high school football team were found guilty Sunday of raping a drunken 16-year-old girl, but Ohio's attorney general says he will convene a grand jury next month to determine whether coaches, parents and other students broke the law, too.
"We're going to push this thing as fast as we can. Bring finality to this to determine if there's anybody else that should be charged and then the community needs to move on after that," Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine said in a statement .

During investigations, DeWine said they identified 43 people, nearly all juveniles, who attended one of the parties last August where the defendants and the victim were. Twenty-seven of them had been interviewed, but 16 "refused to cooperate, giving various reasons," the Los Angeles Times reported.
Among those interviewed were the owners of one of the houses where parties were held that night, the high school principal, and the football team's 27 coaches, many of them volunteers.
