COLUMBUS -- Attorney General Mike DeWine has heard from students who gathered 70,000 signatures in a petition demanding justice in the Steubenville rape case.
Dewine explained his office's role in the case and said he is very committed to a fair trial.
The trial is expected to begin in mid February of the two football players who reportedly raped a girl and the video went viral on social media sites.
DeWine said that we can't believe everything that has been posted on social media sites about this case and that some of it is absolutely wrong.
