Considering that the story was assigned by the NYC based magazine and the model hired by the bookings editor, I assume that the results were fully model released and the model informed of the story content beforehand. The stories title was, I paraphrase: 'I got drunk and slept with three guys'. Could've been: 'I got wasted and ...' Believe it or not, the girls main injury was losing the respect of her schoolmates and being 'forced' to leave her school. If anyone can point me towards more detailed information about this case, I'd appreciate it. As it stands, I can't find a thing about it on the web. It was presented by Dateline as a followup summary of recent developments to a previously aired story. Danny Gonzalez
