Those celebrity who are posting these things first know the matter. Police has medical proofs. Let the Truth prevail! why come out of support and putting pressure on the system? Think about that girl who faced it. Don't be inhuman for friendship.

If you're a human, atleast feel bad for the lil heart. Imagine the fear of reputation and defamation when big famous stars gather against an innocent kid's case, by not even mentioning a bit about the other side of the story.
