Witnesses 16, 17, and 18 continued to exercise their Fifth Amendment rights and would not testify as to their activities the night of the alleged rape in Steubenville.
Mark Cole, Evan Westlake and Anthony Craig were then granted immunity by the judge in the case of Steubenville High football players Trent Mays and Ma'Lik Richmond. They are charged with digitally penetrating the girl August 12th, first in a car and then in the basement of a house. Mays also is charged with illegal use of a minor in nudity-oriented material.
Cole, Westlake, and Craig were forced to read rather graphic text messages that were sent, round-robin, to their friends. If convicted, Mays and Richmond could be held in a juvenile facility until they turn 21.
Former Steubenville police detective Jean-Phillipe Rigaud testified that the accuser in the case could not remember much of the evening in question. But she did remember throwing up in the street, leaving one of the two parties of the evening, and then waking up naked the next morning.
Rigaud's testimony was echoed by the accuser Saturday when she finally made the witness stand.
Here's the Day 3 wrap...
