In football-obsessed Steubenville, Ohio, on a summer night in 2012, an incapacitated sixteen-year-old girl was repeatedly assaulted by members of the “Big Red” high school football team. They took turns documenting the crime and sharing on Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube. Filmmaker Nancy Schwartzman spent four years embedded in the town, documenting the case and its reverberations. Ten years after the assault, Roll Red Roll is the culmination of that research, weaving in new interviews and personal reflections to take listeners beyond Steubenville to examine rape culture.

I slutet av december 1996 och början av 1997 förövades tre våldsbrott med gemensamma drag på olika platser i Stockholmsområdet. En ung kvinna blev rånad och våldtagen i Vårberg, en kvinna blev mördad i centrala Stockholm och ytterligare en kvinna blev rånad och utsatt för ett våldtäktsförsök i en modebutik på Södermalm.

The initial investigation was thwarted by inept police work, jurisdictional confusion, and the influence of local corruption. Fourteen years would pass before an arrest in the case would be made, but even then, a pall would be cast over the evidence.

Menschen, die sich daran erfreuen, andere zu quälen, ihnen Schmerz oder Leid zuzufügen, nennen wir Sadisten. Aber sie sind nicht alle gleich: Die Sadisten, die ihre Neigung als erotische Spielart oder Präferenz ausleben, lassen sich klar unterscheiden von jenen, die ihre Gewalt- und Tötungsfantasien nicht kontrollieren können, bis hin zu grausamsten Straftaten an unschuldigen Opfern. Als Straftäterpsychologin und Ermittlungsberaterin bei Kriminalfällen, als Szene-Insider und Therapeutin ist Lydia Benecke an Tätern wie Opfern nah dran.
