anyone who has ever been or has known a 14 y.o. boy knows what a mess they can be, and how hard it is to get them to listen up and act civilized

Pity about Ivanka. He would have ignored her like he did all the other kids if she hadn't gone out of her way to attract his attention. That makes it even worse, somehow -- that she could have avoided tragedy, but she was young and lacked the guidance of a trusted adult. "Yeah, he does that." is very telling.

That, and also the horrible victim blaming that happens even if the case is substantiated. Remember Brock Turner?
