Savannah Dietrich prevails against her attackers Austin Zehnder and Will Frey III
Kudos! Sexual assault victim Savanna Dietrich – the seventeen year old victim who stood up against her attackers and the Kentucky courts system by publicly releasing the names of the two Lacrosse players who sexually molested her after she passed out at a party and documented their exploits with photos – has prevailed.
You may recall that attorney David Mejia, who represented one of the two teenage boys Austin Zehnder and Will Frey III involved in the case, had filed a motion to hold Dietrich in contempt of court for going against the imposed gag order and twitting the names after a plea deal was put on the table and accepted for the perverts.
Word late Monday afternoon was that the motion was being withdrawn, clearing Dietrich of any potential prosecution which could have seen the already victimized teen facing 180 days in jail and paying a $500 fine. (Ain’t that some shit?) With the motion now being formally withdrawn, Dietrich is free to publicly address her ordeal.
Let the chorus sing.
“What could contempt do now?” Mejia is quoted as stating to the Courier Journal.
Our sentiment exactly!
You should have abstained from overly attempting to protect the likes of someone who would engage in such acts from the get go… Cuz if they are doing this type of act as teens, what the hell will they be doing when their dumbasses get away with it and get to college?
Mejia further expresses his dismay at Dietrich’s actions and his discontent at his clients poor portrayal. And he ain’t to happy about folks worldwide – like us – publishing their names as the sickos they are.
His “privacy has been trampled. He’s accused of things he didn’t do. Anybody who looks at (the postings online) believes things about this kid that are false,” he states.
Hmmmm… Let us see about calling up a pity party for him tout suite.
We would expect Mejia to say nothing else – that is what he is getting paid for – but here is the thing – we ain’t buying it.
What we are doing is singing the real victims praise for having the conviction of standing up for herself against a system – and the likes of Mejia – that not only looked to protect her attackers but impose a gag order to bar her against from defending herself. Cuz kids will be kids – as the saying goes – but the actions of these two were not of kids, they were the actions of sexually sick individuals.
Now all that is left is having these two cowards being placed on a sex offender registry!

Actually David S. Mejia’s and Chris Klein’s pictures need to be made widely public so that people can take steps to avoid these sociopaths. Disbarment is also something they should get.
Judge Deana “Dee” McDonald and Prosecuting Attorney Richwalski need to be disbarred too.

So it turns out she actually didn’t get raped. reported July 26, 2012. She passed out topless after throwing up violently from alcohol poisoning….they only took pictures, no one touched her.
The boys plead guilty to sexual assault because it has fewer repercussions than child pornography charges (they also never posted her images online as was reported). Thus why the DA accepted the plea, in cases of “rape” plea bargains are very rare because evidence so incriminating can support the crime.
It was only when she heard about the pictures MONTHS later and decided to take legal actions.
The Courier Journal, who originally published the story, is facing a lawsuit for publishing false allegations because Dietrich used the words “rapists” and such when interviewed. She was not raped and the media now is painting the boys charged as rapists.
Basically she’s embarrassed and angry about the photos thus why she took legal action only when they came out months later. Witnesses that were
with Dietrich the entire night who assisted her while throwing up said she
wasn’t raped.

Apparently Will Frey and Austin Zehnder have a loyal friend, Sumner Franklin, who decided it was a good idea to libel the rape victim and then post his own phone number for the world to see at http://imgur.com/7GFmR .
