The article expands on the reaction by the school, the town, and the students that I hadn't read before in the newspaper articles -
Then he got a text from Tony, who talked him into meeting at the public library.
It was going to be okay, Tony said. If they did this, Kayla would delete the pictures.
X went to the library, and he and Tony went into the men's room and into a stall. Tony got down on his knees. X looked down and saw that Tony was holding a camera. What the fuck?
It's okay, Tony told him. Kayla just has to see proof.
For a couple of days, X thought he was in the clear. Finally, it was over. He'd learned his lesson. Now please let him move on.
Then he got another text. This one from Tony. Bad news. He messed up. He deleted those pictures from the library by mistake. Kayla still needed proof. She wanted them to do it again.
He deleted them? That dumbshit! X thought his head was going to explode. He wanted to tell him off, but he couldn't risk it. So X agreed. He would meet Tony a few days later, before school started, in the downstairs boys' bathroom at Ike.
They did it again, and Tony took another picture. They were finished. He texted Kayla, told her he'd met her conditions—and even let Tony take the pictures to prove it. This was the end. He was done.
Then Kayla got scarier. She texted back that that picture was not good enough. Oral was not good enough. She wanted to see more. She wanted Tony to put it inside him, and if he didn't let that happen, she was going to send the pictures to all his friends.
Now X was more trapped than ever. It was getting worse. Fast. This was so far out there he felt totally lost.
So a few days later, he let Tony come over to his house, and they went to his bedroom, and Tony took a picture of them doing that, too. But even that didn't make it stop. Kayla said they had to do it again—so he let Tony come into his bedroom to do it again.
Then Tony asked X to take naked pictures of his brother—and that pushed X to a line he would not cross. He turned around and did the only thing he'd never done with Kayla, or with Tony.
Finally, he refused.*
Reaction from the town/school -
Everyone wondered, How could these boys let this happen?
At the courthouse, a middle-aged secretary in the clerk's office said, "When I was in high school, boys like Tony Stancl got the crap beaten out of them. Why didn't they beat the crap out of him?"
Another secretary said, "Maybe he was a cool kid."
The first secretary raised her eyebrows and touched her heavy gray turtleneck. "I saw his picture," she responded, "and he does not look cool to me."
...
Local leaders used the language of predatory terror to describe the case. The D.A. called Stancl's scheme "sinister" and "malicious." A respected columnist at the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel suggested that true justice would come when Tony was turned over to the ultimate sex predators, prison rapists: "Has Stancl pondered the possibility his cellmates will have some schemes of their own to spring on him?"
...
After agonizing over whether to talk about the case to GQ, one school employee finally justified the decision by saying, "This may ruin my career, but if I can help save just one more kid from getting ass-raped, it will be worth it."
Inside the superintendant's office in Ike's boxy 1969 brick building, two deep lines furrowed on the bridge of Kreutzer's nose when he scrunched his forehead. He asked, "Is this the Columbine of texting?"
What happened is awful and Tony Stancl is a fucking predator, but, c'mon school employee, ass-raping? They gonna put up fliers, "Only you can stop ass-raping"? Don't let the next ass-raping Columbine 9/11 occur, report any suspicious ass-raping activities. These kids were obviously victims of rampant political correctness to have never been given the proper information about ass-raping. Back when I was in high school we beat up the suspected fag ass-rapers and let the jocks violate our buttocks -
