“Two teenage boys have been charged in Houston, Texas for the gang rape of a 16-year old girl this past June. According to the victim, Jada, she drank some punch offered to her by a boy at a party she was attending, which turned out to be spiked. She says she then passed out, and was not aware of what had happened to her until pictures of her assault went viral on social media.
Yes. These charming young fellas posted pictures of the naked, unconscious teenager all over the internet in order to mock her. They weren’t the only ones, either. Other kids from her school, and soon, around the country, gleefully shared the photo all around social media.
As if that weren’t bad enough, some of them even started posting pictures of themselves posed as Jada was in the picture, tagging them #jadapose, which eventually came so popular that it was actually trending on Twitter and Instagram. Some particularly delightful young men even tried to make the pose into a “dance craze” on YouTube. I’m sure they all thought this was just adorable.”
