Operation Justice for Rehtaeh:
4/11 Statement:
Since yesterday morning several teams of investigators
have been working to dissect the events surrounding the rape, harassment
and suicide of Rehtaeh Parsons.
What we have learned is certainly appalling, but it
wasn't the act of rape that shocked us. It was the behavior of the
adults in Rehtaeh's life that we found most disturbing. Let's set aside
for a moment the compassion they should have shown as human beings and
just focus on the responsibilities they had as professionals. We're
talking about the school teachers, administrators, the police and
prosecutors, those who should have been role models in the late
Rehtaeh's life.
To begin, Ross Landry's reversal of his decision not
investigate this case after a media blitz is clearly an indication that
his sudden interest is purely an act of public relations damage-control.
You should be really ashamed of yourself. In contrast to your
statements your actions are not genuine and your patronizing attention
is unappreciated. Ross, you have zero class. We encourage you to get it
together.
Now, it took us only a few hours to identify the boys
that assaulted Rehtaeh. This wasn't some high-tech operation that
involved extracting private messages from someone's Facebook account.
Dozens of e-mails were sent to us by kids and adults alike, most of whom
had personal relationships with the rapists. Many recalled confessions
made by these boys blatantly in public where they detailed the rape of
an inebriated 15-year-old girl. Recent statements by police and
prosecutors that there simply wasn't enough evidence to make a single
arrest should be viewed solely as an admission of incompetence on their
part. This wasn't “he said, she said.” He said he did it and he said it
to everyone while showing them a photo of him doing it. Every officer
that signed off on this “no evidence” conclusion should be guarding the
entrance to a petting zoo for the remainder of their careers. We're
afraid to ask if anyone even bothered to check the EXIF data on the
rape/child pornography being openly shared by hundreds of students
throughout your community.
The way the story is told, time and time again, these
sad little boys had no fear whatsoever about admitting publicly their
crimes and even spreading photographic evidence of it. Why were they
unafraid? They believed no one was ever going to do anything to stop
them and they were right. For this we point our fingers at the Cole
Harbour school system. It is truly disturbing that this level of
bullying could happen in one of your schools without you noticing.
Worse, child porn was apparently viral in your halls and you had no
clue. That was the excuse your staff repeated on the news yesterday
wasn't it, that you didn't know. Well, it's your job to know. If the
administration of that school had any honor they would all resign for
failing to meet the terms of their employment.
All of you have created a mess and instead of taking
responsibility and cleaning it up, the first thing you did yesterday
morning was get on television and defend your jobs. You have taught the
young men in your community a terrible lesson: rape is easy.
And just to clear things up once and for all for the
young men in Nova Scotia who are unlikely to hear this from any of their
role models: vomiting drunk girls are not capable of giving you consent
to have sex with them. That kind of sex is called rape. It isn't really
sex at all. If that's the only way you can laid, you are pathetic and
should stick to quietly sobbing while fondling yourselves in the dark
until hopefully the day comes when some woman you probably don't deserve
pities you enough to teach you how to act like a real man.
At this time we can honestly say we're confident we
know the identities of the people involved in Rehtaeh's rape. It would
probably take us a lot longer to come up with a list of the people
responsible for her death. We hope you all find some way to sleep at
night.
See you Sunday.
