Senior Night at a high school football game is a very big deal. It’s kind of like the Oscars and a State of the Union coming together for one night. There are tears, balloon arches, and slow-motion football videos, with a coach trying his best to sound like Morgan Freeman. But at Timberline High School in Boise, Idaho, the spotlight has shifted from football to protests, police involvement, and student walkouts. Homecoming festivities, including the game, were canceled after a Snapchat group chat allegedly involving football players went viral. The messages allegedly discussed how they were going to r*pe and kill a female student. “Let’s make her life hell.” “Hell yeah.” Then came a chilling reference: “You think Cornell was bad? Just wait for us.” This is part 2 of the Cornell 7 case. Full show notes available at RottenMangoPodcast.com
