00:01And it's a girl, Daisy.
00:04It's your mother.
00:07It's your mother.
00:10And there's the birthday girl.
00:13Cheese.
00:21Good morning, Maryville. It's a cold start to the day right now, only 21 degrees.
00:28Audrey was one of my only true friends.
00:30She was always a happy kid, fun kid.
00:32And Daisy, she was such a daddy's girl.
00:37In a small town, everybody is connected.
00:40A lot of these families have been here for generations.
00:45This guy started texting me. It was kind of like, oh, older boys want to hang out with us.
00:52I think I was drunk.
00:56The boys were pretty persistent.
00:59Then, I guess, things got worse.
01:03She was laying in the yard, and her hair was frozen to the ground.
01:09A group of boys crowded around, looking at a phone.
01:13You carried her upstairs, passed out. Why did you lie to the police?
01:16She said, I'm scared. I did something that I didn't want to do.
01:20Who took the video?
01:21The whole town split up into sides, Daisy, against people that were very, very vicious.
01:27We started having issues with vandalism.
01:29It was picked up in the world of social media. That's when this erupted into a firestorm.
01:33The grandson of a Missouri official has walked free.
01:36We had our house burned down.
01:38These are very hard cases.
01:39No nice way to say it. They're liars.
01:41The verdict was hard to believe.
01:43She said, I can't do this anymore.
01:57It became more important to shield the boys than it did to find justice for the girls.
02:06Girls have as much culpability in this world as boys do.
02:13If no one's going to talk about it, then I will.
02:19It's sad, but after that incident, something clicked.
02:23We can't ignore an army of voices.
02:25The words of our enemies aren't as awful as the silence of our friends.
