Here’s the sequence:
- Fifteen-year-old Rehtaeh Parsons of Nova Scotia gets drunk at party, gets raped
- Classmates or rapists take pictures of the assault and pass them around
- Rehtaeh is bullied and harassed at school, family moves to new town
- Harassment continues
- Rehtaeh commits suicide
- Royal Canadian Mounted Police closes case saying there was “insufficient evidence to proceed with charges.”
- Anonymous gets involved, threatens to expose the rapists unless RCMP brings charges
- RCMP — surprise! — reopens case, saying they now have new information
HA!
