For Rehtaeh Parsons, 17, who committed suicide earlier this month, the photo of her assault was almost as damaging as the crime itself. Months after the Cole Harbour, N.S., teen was allegedly raped by four boys as she lay unconscious at a party, one horrific image from that night remained on the cellphones of her classmates. The picture, described by her mother, was of one of the perpetrators smiling and giving a thumbs-up as he assaulted the teenager. It was almost as if he was performing for an audience.
California teen Audrie Pott, 15, committed suicide days after pictures of her assault by three boys were posted online. Steubenville, Ohio�s Jane Doe would only learn the intricate details of her assault after a video and photos surfaced on the Internet indicting two members of the local football team in her rape.
