Someone Cared! Woman Called 911 in Richmond Rape Case
Margarita Vargas, an 18-year-old woman from Richmond, CA (and a graduate of Richmond High) was the lone person who called 911 on the night a teenager was gang raped outside her high school while a homecoming party was still going on. It's alleged that at least 20 people watched and did nothing. Vargas says that her brother-in-law came home and told her he'd seen a woman being raped; it was Vargas who insisted they call the police.
Rape Victim Asks Community to Use Anger to Bring Change

Speaking to a few hundred people gathered on campus, the victim's pastor read these words on her behalf:
"We realize people are angry about this. But let the anger cause change, change that is necessary to keep our children, our neighbors and our friends safe."
Teenage Girls Support Alleged Richmond Rapist on MySpace
The news about the gang rape of a teenage girl in Richmond, CA, outside a homecoming dance while others watched and did nothing continues to get crazier.
A seventh suspect (the oldest so far at age 21) was arrested today, but even as details about the horrific crime continue to come out, one of the youngest accused rapists, who is 15, seems to have unlikely supporters: teenage girls on his MySpace page.
It's not clear if they think he's innocent, but they hope he's freed and that anyone who "snitched" on him gets theirs.
