During the Occupy Steubenville rally in downtown Steubenville, a group of people gathered at Jim Woods Park to show support for the youth of Steubenville.

While they too are against rape, and share support for the teenage girl at the center of the investigation, they say they are also in support of innocent children who are being affected.

"We can't even go to functions without being harassed. It's for the children. There's a lot of innocent children that are being labeled as something that they are not. We're not for Anonymous, or against Anonymous," said one woman.

One of the Steubenville Big Red football players said, "We're getting threats from all around. People that I've never met in my life or have seen, states, countries away. They're all saying you guys need to get murdered and you guys are terrible people and you're all rapists," he said.

Another man who came to support the city of Steubenville said, "I think it's just a bunch of rumors, I think it's people trying to create controversy to just, whatever agenda they have, make Steubenville out to be some corrupt town. Open your eyes people. The whole country is corrupt, if you want to look at the government and everything, society as a whole has a problem that we need to deal with."

Football players and Steubenville school teachers were amongst supporters in the crowd.
