Two Ohio high school students, Ma'lik Richmond and Trent Mays, are set to go on trial on charges they raped a 16-year-old girl while she was passed out during a party in August 2012. After a video was released online in which another unidentified teen appeared to be joking about the incident, public interest in the case spiked. The video was purportedly leaked by hacker-activists associating under the Anonymous and KnightSec labels, who allege that more people were involved and should be held accountable.
