It was a drunk girl. In the parlance of american culture, that means no one will touch it. She wasn't a child, she wasn't a boy, she "got herself into that mess on her own".

Which, excuse me while I throw up a lot in my mouth, but that's why there's such a lull of nothing.

And actually, I'm pretty sure I read the article first on reddit and then in the Times so I'm not sure if it's locale specific. We aren't all that close to Stubenville, and it's too small a city to ping our Ohio-counter-part radar.
