Roll Red Roll

When social media, “boy will be boys,” and vigilante justice collide, Steubenville, Ohio will never be the same.

Overview

At a 2012 pre-season high-school football party in Steubenville, Ohio, a young woman was raped by members of the beloved high school football team. The aftermath exposed an entire culture of complicity—and Roll Red Roll maps out the roles that peer pressure, denial, sports machismo, and social media each played in the tragedy.
