Yeah, the media shitshow...

There were no DeepFakes, a few text messages raising concerns about some young girls' behavior and a DA running around during an election year slandering this woman to get votes. Oh, and a lying teenager capitalizing on the drama to get movie and book deals.

The result: a woman who's life was forever turned upside down and found guilty by an "impartial" jury.
