The question of how, exactly to approach that, though, isn’t always clear.

The Egregious, Awful and Downright Wrong Reactions to the Steubenville Rape Trial Verdict I've not commented either way on this case or any other case like it but I, personally, feel that the media circus surrounding rape cases, (In the UK and USA, at least,) is too much. The punishments are arguable as they vary from too short (a few weeks/months) to 1/3 of a normal life span, but the media circus is what is truly unfair. These people have their faces plastered across the news for days/weeks (Even before they are proven guilty,) and, as a result of that, these guys will be much harder to employ. People might avoid them. It really can ruin their life.
