Scandals. It started going around the school that they had had sex. This cell phone video taken that night but does it tell two entirely different stories . Does that smile change everything . Reporter how important is this video to your case . Now, a footballcrazed town taking sides. Team savannah. I dont care how much she drank, it doesnt matter. Nobody has the right to take something thats not theirs. Or team cameron. You go from a little small town kid playing football, to a National Media crisis. The revelations that left a small town split and speechless. In the courtroom, ill never forget, there was an audible gasp. Good evening. Im elizabeth vargas. And im david muir. It was the kind of teenage party thats taking place around the party. But this ended in a lifechanging he said, she said. One that is igniting a desperately needed conversation about the blurred lines of sexual consent, and sexual assault. Heres ryan smith. Reporter its friday night. The lights, the band, and the entire town is out to see the toros. Welcome to spanish fort, alabama. Population 8,000. Located just east of mobile bay. Once the site of one of the last civil war battles. It will later be the site of a different kind of battle. Very small, close community. Everyone kind of knows everyone. A very tightknit community, focused on family, centered on very good schools. Reporter bible belt churches may dot this small, affluent community but here, football is religion. In spanish fort, football is no longer a sport. Its a lifestyle. You live, eat, sleep, breathe football. Reporter no wonder its High School Players are celebrated as heroes, says journalist cassie fambro. People love to see them and recognize them in their community. I would say theyre local celebrities. Reporter and starring in his own highlight reel, running back Cameron Harrison. A senior, 57, 180 pounds, wearing number 4. Hes small, but hes big. Hes hard to bring down. Thats one of his advantages. Hes tough. Reporter among those cheering in the crowd, the new girl in class, 16yearold savannah. I am funny, independent, goofy, very goofy, have a lot of love in my heart. Reporter among the things she loves, what youd expect. Makeup, social media and selfies. Lots and lots of selfies. But for the onetime choir girl singing in church with her dad, adolescence brought some big changes. Moving from the only private school she ever knew to unfamiliar terrain, public high school. I cried. I said i dont want to move, but i didnt have a choice. Reporter really . I had been at a school from second grade to ninth grade. I loved where i was. I was from the country, there its so laidback and small. Reporter how was the adjustment for savannah to high school . It was an eyeopener for her. I think it was a huge culture shock. I remember one time she, she called me. She was like, i dont think i can do this. Reporter emily and joe, savannahs parents, were high school sweethearts. Married by age 20. He, a marine at camp lejeune. She, a College Student studying business. What were your hopes back then . Have a family and have a story. Reporter but their familys story, the kind every parent of a teenage girl fears, begins on an unseasonably warm october night in 2015. Its joe and emilys 18th wedding anniversary. Theyre enjoying a rare night away from their four kids, celebrating with a romantic weekend in new york city. But meanwhile, back in alabama, another celebration, an 18th Birthday Party for one of the spanish fort seniors. How did this party come about . Everyone was texting about it. Reporter haley and aly, Popular High School seniors, say word spreads like wildfire. Even to those outside their usual clique. This was a little bit bigger, and it was lots of different kind of people all mingling together. It was not a typical weekend party. It was probably like one of the biggest parties ive ever been to in spanish fort. Reporter savannah too hears about the party and begs her parents, long distance, for permission. I had the a. C. T. S saturday morning and the party was saturday night. Reporter just, like, blow off some steam. Blow off some steam. Reporter you were on the phone with her and what did she say . She said mom, may i go to a Birthday Party tonight . I said why dont you just stay home, just listen to your inner voice. I just, i want, for some reason i wanted her to stay home. Reporter but moms intuition on this fateful night gave way to a daughters desperate desire to fit in. Me being pushy, finally she was like, okay. Reporter a tale of two photos illustrate in real time, different nights for mother and daughter. A night out for the parents, while savannah is seen on snapchat getting glammed up. With her, a friend. And guess who she knows Cameron Harrison, that High School Football star. They pregame at his house. The two girls taking this pic in his room. Did you know Cameron Harrison at all . I knew of him. We had math together but i had never hung out with him or anything. Reporter what did you hear about him . He was just a short little cracker, like just a fireball, just kind of crazy. Reporter and speaking of fireball, the booze, brought by the kids, flowing freely later that night at this ordinary twostory, fourbedroom mustardcolored house overlooking the timber creek golf course. Now, packed like a nightclub. So how many people were at the party . Probably 40 at one point. Reporter make that 41. The birthday boys 58yearold grandmother was home, but watching tv upstairs in her bedroom. We walked in and hyped would be the word. There was like rap music playing, hair slinging, and arms flailing. You were just kind of like, wow. It was hectic. People running around, dancing, beer pong, playing video games on the tv. Reporter and the drinks were flowing . The drinks were flowing. Reporter hayden, a senior football player, recalls playing beer pong with savannah and his teammate, cameron. She was staring him down, giving him that look. I told him i was like, all right, she obviously wants it. He was like, i know, i can tell. Reporter you had some interest in this guy. I saw you roll your eyes. Why . I always said to my friends i would never with him, hes a nice guy but no. Reporter 40 underage teenagers partying, drinking, saying turn down, for what. What were you drinking . Smirnoff. I had about two of those before i got there and then i had three or four beers. And then four double shots of fireball. It was under an hour that i had drank this much. Reporter others quickly took notice. I first saw her on the couch, one of her friends was like, pouring a little alcohol in her mouth. Reporter she didnt look like she was completely wasted . No. She was conscious, walking around, having a good time, not stumbling. I couldnt say she might have been able to walk in a straight line, but i dont think most of the people there couldve at that point. Reporter these photos posted on snapchat may allow us to peer into savannahs saturday night, but what they dont show, she says, are the effects of all that alcohol. She says she remembers feeling dizzy but thats about all. Whats the last thing you remember . The last thing that i remember is standing in the kitchen with everybody, singing happy birthday. Reporter this is cell phone video of that moment obtained by 20 20. Its like i wasnt even in my body. Like, its like my head was telling me, like, somethings not right, but i just, i could feel myself kind of fading out, like you know, from having control of myself. But thats the last thing i remember was staying in there with everybody. Reporter savannah may not remember but her friends do. At one point, savannah had accidentally knocked over a glass. She looked like something was wrong. Reporter coming up next, cell phone video captures savannah being carried. What happens when shes behind closed doors and not alone. I was banging on the door and i was like, whats going on . Like, why is the door locked . Reporter stay with us. Shoul. coughs so sorry. Oh no.

Closing in on another Alabama State championship. But 16yearold savannah is out of her league, evident to those at the party that she may have had a few too many. Shes kind of just like, like, just like, going crazy walking around. Reporter watching from across the room, savannahs close friend, who asked that we call her jessica. Shes drunk. Right . Mmhmm. Reporter what are you seeing . All of a sudden i see someone carrying her up the stairs. It was probably four people that were carrying her up the stairs, like she was a doll basically, like they just like each had a limb. And i was like, what the heck, when did this happen . I just like saw her on the couch. Reporter but just like booze, theres Something Else thats ubiquitous at your typical teenage rager, cell phones. This is an image of savannah being carried upstairs. It will later play a big part in trying to determine what occurred that night. Taylor is one of those teens who helped carry savannah. We were all just laughing, you know, making a joke out of it, because it was funny. Everyone had been drinking, and were carrying savannah up, and savannahs pretty tall, and were all kind of short, so we were kind of struggling. Reporter she says they did it so savannah could lie down and sleep it off. Do you remember being carried upstairs . Its like i could hear things my eyes were shut, but i could just hear everything. I just didnt feel with it at all. Reporter at that point, the popular seniors, newly 18, decide to leave, wanting to take the party across the bay to a club in nearby mobile. We were like, cameron, you coming . He was like, no, i cant get in im just going to stay here. Reporter weary of trouble, because remember, Cameron Harrison is a standout senior whose Football Team is undefeated and entering the playoffs. Also staying behind . Savannah. And depending on who you talk to, you get conflicting reports on her state of mind. Whenever we were about to leave is whenever i saw her being carried, and she was laughing. Reporter so you saw her being carried up the stairs . Yeah, she was like, no, i want to go back downstairs. Reporter once upstairs, savannah gets sick in the bathroom. That grandma makes a brief appearance, handing her a towel. Friend jessica says when she went upstairs, savannah was barely coherent. She was just laid on the bed with like her eyes closed. And she was just like, uhhuh, i couldnt like really make out what she was saying. Reporter tell me, when shes saying that to you, is she unconscious at that point . She wasnt fully conscious but she wasnt fully unconscious at that point. She was probably like inbetween there. Shes kind of really like a zombie. Reporter slurring at all . Yeah, definitely slurring. But it was after that is when i noticed like, she was like, she was out. She wasnt saying anything. Reporter jessica says she left savannah in that upstairs bedroom to nap but when she returned to check on her about 15 minutes later, the door was locked. I was banging on the door and i was like, whats going on . Like, why is the door locked . And i couldnt hear anything in there. And the light was off. And i remember leaving and the light was on. Reporter she doesnt hear anything, but camerons teammate, hayden, also at the door, says he hears savannah making sounds from inside the bedroom. I heard her moaning. Like, i could hear sex noises. Reporter eventually the door opens, and jessica is shocked by what she sees. So cameron cracks the door open, and hes completely naked. And i was like, oh, my gosh. What just, what just happened . Half her bodys on the bed with her arms back and then half her bodys like draped off the bed. Reporter did she have any clothes on . She had no clothes on. She was completely naked. I started yelling at cameron, i was like, what are you doing . Like shes obviously not okay right now. And he was like, she wanted me to. Reporter did it seem like she was completely out of it . Yes, completely out of it. She couldnt even move. Reporter couldnt move, but jessica says savannah did speak. And what she said would be crucial to the case. She said, just leave me here. I was mad because she said that, so thats when i left. Reporter when jessica goes back upstairs, another 10 or 15 minutes later, she sees savannah disheveled. No bra and her clothes backwards and inside out. She was slumped over the toilet throwing up. And she, oh gosh, she threw up so much. Like, it was at least 20 times that night. She just kept throwing up everywhere. Reporter and she says cameron, nowhere in sight. Turns out hes back downstairs at the party, taking smiling snaps. No hint of potential wrongdoing. Do you remember Cameron Harrison ever being in that room with you . No. Reporter its approaching midnight, and on the ride home, friend taylor says thats when savannah whispered a secret to her. I asked her, are you okay . And she had told me, i think i had sex with cameron. Reporter with a sickly savannah in the backseat, it is jessica taking responsibility for her friend, racing home before curfew. Were you thinking, man, this girl might be in serious trouble . She might need to go to the hospital right now. Oh, yeah. I wanted to take her there, but she would just start screaming, shes like, no. She was still drunk at that point but she would try her best to be like, mmmm, no, you cant do that. Reporter with her parents asleep, jessica sneaks the two of them in through the side door. Savannah still vomiting. She was still shaking, she was like white, white. I put so many blankets on her and she was still, she kept on saying like im so cold, like, it sounded like she was just like in like a freezer. Reporter for two hours jessica stood watch over her intoxicated friend. When we come back, some monday morning quarterbacking when the weekends raucous house party hits homeroom. It started going around the school that they had had sex. A bunch of different stories. Reporter and the standout football star stands face to face with a former marine. Did it take everything in you to not want to lash out at him . Reporter the confrontation on the front porch. Next. The opioid my doctor prescribed for my chronic back pain backed me upbig time. Before movantik, i tried to treat it myself. Spent time, money. No go. But i didnt back down. I talked to my doctor. She said one, movantik was specifically designed for opioidinduced constipationoic and can help you go more often. Number two .

Love mom and dad im takin a nap. Dude, you just woke up im goin up the country, baby dont you wanna go . Im goin up the country, baby dont you wanna go . Geico motorcycle, great rates for great rides. Reporter looking in the mirror never used to bother 16yearold savannah. Shes young, pretty, confident. But the reflection she saw the morning of october 25th, 2015, was downright horrifying. My face was sunken in. I had bruise hickeys all down my neck. I just started crying, because i just felt so disgusted with myself. Reporter disgusted because savannahs saturday night was a dangerous one. Full of beer, liquor, and fireball shots. I felt like i was that drunk girl at the party, and i knew everyone was going to, like, just, you know, talk about it. Reporter but she is about to learn from her friend, it wasnt just alcohol. She said, you know, you and cameron had sex, but you were really messed up. And i said, you know, i dont remember that. Reporter savannah makes her friend promise not to mention it again, just pretend like it never happened. So at that point you were thinking i want this to go away . Yes. I was still kind of new, and he was who he was, so i knew that itd be pointless to try and Say Something. Reporter at that point, how did you define what he did . I just felt taken advantage of. Reporter did you feel like it was rape . Honestly, at the time, no, i did not. Reporter savannah goes to School Monday morning hoping her weekend secret is safe. But its already too late. Rumors are swirling all over spanish fort high. It started going around the school that savannah was raped. So the word is out. People were talking about it. Reporter savannah tries to keep her head down, until she bumps into the man of that infamous hour, Cameron Harrison. He kind of dodged me, like wouldnt look at me, just kind of kept going his way. Reporter did you want to speak to him . Not really, no. I just felt like it was too, honestly, like, awkward and uncomfortable. Reporter during design class, savannah gets with taylor and a couple of other friends to discuss what happened between her and cameron. She kept saying, he just took advantage of the situation. We had both been drinking. Reporter at that time, how would you have defined rape . Brutal, like holding, tied down, gun to your head, tight, just very violent. Thats what i thought it was. Reporter the girls tell savannah shes wrong. And soon they start googling the definition of rape, right there in class. Unbeknownst to them, their teacher overhears them and savannah is sent to the guidance counselor. They were like, you know, weve heard about this Party Saturday night. You want to talk about it . And i kind of just broke down. Said i felt like i had been, you know, taken advantage of. Reporter they summon her mother emily to the school. I walk in and i seen my daughter in the corner, balled up in the fetal position with mascara running. Reporter what did she tell you . That she had been raped, or sexually assaulted. And i got mad. That was my first reaction, i was just angry. Reporter emily and her husband joe say they went through a range of emotions. First, disappointment in their daughter. But then outrage. Somebody can say, she shouldnt have got so drunk. Yeah, i get that. No, she shouldnt have, okay . I dont care what she was wearing. I dont care how much she drank. I dont care if she was doing drugs. It doesnt matter. Nobody has a right to take something thats not theirs. Thats the bottom line. To us, it was a black and white. Reporter but for savannah, its a little more grey, shes waffling between damning and defending cameron. Even texting a friend, i feel so awful, taylor. Cameron and everyone is going to hate me. I never wanted it to get to this point. Its all getting back to cameron, whose friends, hearing the vicious rumors, tell him he needs to set the record straight. If not what happened thats not what needs to be said. Reporter for his next play, cameron, on the advice of a teacher, decides to go on offense. Somehow he found out that savannahs parents thought they had sex and accused him of rape. And so he, being the gentleman that he was, wanted to apologize, make it right. Reporter he may want to make it right, but hes about to make it worse. Believe it or not, cameron goes to visit savannahs father, the former marine. To tell him the sex he had with his daughter was consensual. Thats the guy, hes outside, hes walking up right now. Joe, what did you say . My Immediate Reaction when he pulled up was violence. I am fixing to clear this porch off of this kid. I didnt say a word. I let him speak. He said, i know yall are hurting, savannahs hurting, but im hurting too. His body language was bizarre. cause he was so calm. So ice cold. Joe and i were both shaking. Reporter and he made a huge admission to you. He only did our daughter for five minutes. Five minutes. Only five minutes. Reporter he said those words to you . Did it take everything in you to not want to lash out at him . I told him to get the [ bleep ] off my property. In a very christianlike way. Reporter that very day, emily and joe call the authorities. And veteran detective jason vannoy is assigned. He wastes no time. Just because with kids, teenagers, allegiances can change, stories can change, i kind of want to talk to everybody i can as quick as i can. Reporter after speaking to savannah and her mother, he begins to interview students, about a dozen in all. They tell a consistent story about savannah becoming what they called sloppy drunk. Then detective vannoy inevitably discovers this, cell phone video taken at the party. The video showed the young people carrying the victim across the house and to the stairway. Reporter what did you think when you saw that video . I took a long, hard look at it. Several times. And was mainly focusing on the condition of the victim. Her body was limp. At one point she had her arm draped over her face and it, she was just like a wet rag. Reporter just a few precious seconds, but for a seasoned investigator, oh, so revealing. Its realtime footage taken at the party, showing the condition of the victim. Reporter how important is this video to your case . In my mind, this video took this case way beyond probable cause to make an arrest. Reporter a week after the party, Cameron Harrison is charged with first degree rape, sparking a media frenzy. A charge of rape, a shocked and divided history. Reporter when his friends see him in court the next day, now clad in a new uniform, they are beside themselves. It was definitely a slap of reality. My best friend walking down a hallway with a bunch of criminals in an orange jumpsuit and shackles on, and cameras all in his face. That is so hard to see your friend like that. You go from a little small town kid playing football to a National Media crisis. Cameron, what really happened at that party . Reporter cameron pleads not guilty. Hes released on bond, but placed on house arrest. Suspended from the Football Team and forced to take his classes online. The next night is the toros first playoff game. But they will have to do it without cameron, the star running back. What was going through the teams mind . Us in the student section and the Football Team did everything we could to let cameron know in spirit that he was there with us. That we wanted him there. So we put 4s everywhere. Reporter number 4, camerons jersey. Plastered in the stands and on social media, a public outpouring of support. And not just from teammates. Toros 4 ever read this banner. Girls wrote 4s on their wrists and even a number 4 on the quarterbacks towel. We wanted it to be known that we supported our friend. Reporter for savannah, the display instantly visible on social media. It feels like shes become the town pariah. How did all of this strike you . It really just bothered me. Its kind of evil. Reporter when we come back, bullying, from virtual to violent. She goes, i cant sleep. Im scared. Someone threw a rock at my window. Reporter next. Cindy, you dont evenno dress. Ress. Come on girls, shes not coming with us. Uhuh, youre not going anywhere in those rags. Cindy . Introducing an allnew crossover, toyota chr. Toyota. Lets go places. One again, ryan smith. This is not something i would expect from Cameron Harrison in any way, shape or form. She didnt do anything wrong and she is being punished more than he is. Reporter the drama between Spanish Fort Alabama High School students, savannah, and football player, Cameron Harrison, divided the town. Cassie fambro wrote for the local news site al. Com. There was just such a stark divide. There was the people who believed savannah and there was the people who thought that this was a witch hunt. That Cameron Harrison was unfairly portrayed as a criminal rapist. About two dozen Spanish Fort High School students defending him. Hes innocent. Reporter but while camerons supporters were loud and proud, he was tightlipped. Never speaking in public or to the police. No comment. Reporter but he did speak to this woman, private investigator, alicia mcwhorter. Hired by camerons mom to gather intel. What was his state of mind like . What was he like . He was in a state of hyperawareness that he w uer a microscope. And he needed to get the truth out. Reporter she says cameron recounts a familiar tale of booze, beer pong and allout blowout. But new details emerge when he claims after savannah was carried up the stairs, he ended up in the bathroom with her. And thats when a familiar face enters. Kennedy, that girl who came to the party with savannah. Cameron states that kennedy grabbed his face and kissed him, and then savannah grabbed his face and kissed him, and then they moved into the bedroom. At some point kennedy gets up and leaves the room. Kennedy denies that she, cameron, and savannah were kissing each other at the same time. Cameron says it happened, kennedy states it didnt. Were at an impasse on that. Reporter and cameron says he and savannah are still not alone in that bedroom. There are others. And she tells them to leave. Cameron told me that the alleged victim said, get the f out and told another person, im going to f him. Reporter granted, this investigator is being paid by camerons family. But listen to what others said. But listen to what two others told detective vannoy. They heard the victim say f me, cam. Reporter but remember, the booze was flowing and memories, hazy. Did you have consensual sex with Cameron Harrison . No. If i was in the condition in im right now, i would not have sex with cameron. Reporter and what about that controversial statement cameron allegedly made to her father. Cameron clearly stated to me that he did not say that. Reporter how do you know what to believe . I can tell you that, that camerons story was believable. And i do believe that the young woman consumed alcohol that may or may not have impeded her ability to remember exactly everything that happened. Reporter so in your mind she could have given consent but simply not remembered it . Yes. I believe that. I do not believe she was passed out. No one saw her passed out. Reporter not passed out is key because the charge against cameron is that savannah couldnt consent because she was either physically helpless or mentally incapacitated. The question all comes back to, what was she capable of doing at that moment . Reporter savannah says she becomes the victim of cyber bullying. And not just from classmates but from their parents too. Its hard enough, kids my age, doing these things, but when its an adult, that just hits a new nerve to me. Reporter and then one night shes awoken to a loud bang. A large cement chunk of just rock, brick, about this big, shattered her window. The d. A. Says the latest potentially dangerous attack crossed the line. Reporter and then savannah says one by one, many of her friends publically turned their back on her. I think their social life was more important to them than, you know, supporting me. Reporter with their daughter isolated and outcast, savannahs parents offered to move schools. I said, no, youre not going to run me out. Reporter you wanted to stay at your school. I wanted to stay. To prove a point. Im going to be strong, im going to show them. I didnt make it through, like, first period. Reporter why not . Everyone was staring at me like i was the devil, like, just giving me a look of disgust. Reporter savannah toughs it out for six months before the family decides to the sell their home and move out of spanish fort. I deserve to feel happy again. Its not, you know, that they got to me, its just that i deserve a fresh start. Reporter now its savannahs turn to strike back, not even waiting for a trial. Armed with her cell phone, she decides to go public. Blogging about her reality and how society has it backwards when it comes to sexual assault. We teach dont get raped instead of dont rape. Does anybody else not see a problem with this . Reporter why did you decide to start blogging . I wanted to have a voice. If you see a girl whos clearly been drinking and to the point of passing out, you help her. Reporter next, the case is headed for court. Both sides brace for battle. We dont expect to lose this case. Cameron harrison also has the right to be publically exonerated. And publically vindicated for a false allegation. You cannot rape an unconscious girl. It doesnt matter if you are a High School Athlete star. You cannot do this. Reporter but could savannahs own words come back to haunt her . There was a blatant text saying, you did not rape me. Reporter they say snapchats disappear. Not this one. Stay with us. The sunll come out tomorrow. For people with Heart Failure, tomorrow is not a given. But entresto is a medicine that helps make more tomorrows possible. Tomorrow, tomorrow. I love ya, tomorrow in the largest Heart Failure study ever, entresto helped more people stay alive and out of the hospital than a leading Heart Failure medicine.

And boooyah wait for it boooyah has three os. Grocery outlet bargain market its buy one, get one free on snickers and twix miniatures. Reporter savannah is trying to make a fresh start. New surroundings. New perspective. I love film, writing, photography, art. Life itself makes me happy. Reporter but there is a piece of her past that threatens to undo the entire case against her alleged assailant. 18yearold Cameron Harrison. He shows authorities a bombshell. A snapchat message savannah sent him two days after the party. And heres what it says. U didnt rape me. I mean u took advantage of me but i forgive you and i know u were drunk. Its a huge break for camerons defense. And for his buddies, it reinforces what they believed all along. There was a blatant text saying, you did not rape me. That should have ended it. She admitted that he didnt. If she said you didnt rape her, we know that you didnt rape her. She said it. She told him that. Reporter this snapchat that she sends, hey, i know you didnt rape me. That just goes to show that she didnt know the meaning of rape. Reporter savannah says the message was part of a larger conversation initiated by him. But only this snippet was saved by cameron. Well, the selling point to snapchat, the reason that its popular, if you dont screenshot it and save it, its gone. Reporter and the breaks keep coming for cameron. Remember that video of savannah being carried up the stairs . His defense attorney claims to have found more of it. This additional frame where savannah appears awake and smiling. The defense seems to say that theres another second in that where shes smiling. Whats your impression of that . Unconscious people can make all kinds of facial expressions and they can have their eyes open. My position is that shes physically helpless. And that is very much bolstered by the fact that shes having to be carried. Reporter two key pieces of evidence but both sides saying it proves their case. Her smiling doesnt necessarily mean this was not a rape, but as jurors evaluate the case and have to decide, is it proof beyond a reasonable doubt, every little factor becomes relevant. Reporter but thats little comfort to cameron as he awaits trial. For the past six months, these four walls have become camerons closest companions. Now, only photos providing a peek at the life he once enjoyed. This is my senior banner. It says, running back, Cameron Harrison. All my friends made this for me. Reporter cameron showing us this window into a life seemingly put on perma hold. Im blessed to have so much support from all of my friends and family. Reporter trapped by a dark cloud above him, and that device around his ankle, monitoring his movements. How far, cameron, are you allowed to go . I can go to, like, across the street over there. Reporter ironically, the former running backs world is now limited to the length of football field, 100 yards. His mom karon. We just deal with the days as they come through. Our love grows stronger every day. And were going to make it through this. Reporter suddenly, throngs of kids begin to arrive. Camerons classmates. Its graduation day. Cameron not being able to walk with us definitely, you know, kind of makes me a little heartbroken. My best friend. Reporter they don caps and gowns for a makeshift ceremony. You dont have your tassel . Theres one in the kitchen go get it. Reporter while the future is bright for them, camerons is still unknown. He is facing the possibility of ten years to life for rape and District Attorney hallie dixon is showing no signs of mercy, local hero though he may be. Do Football Players get a free pass . Absolutely not. Not as long as were prosecuting these cases. They will not get a free pass. Reporter so for you theres no question. Cameron harrison is a rapist. Theres no question. Im not saying that he is this evil human being. I am saying what he did was wrong. Reporter when we come back, Cameron Harrisons day in court is coming. We did everything we could to block the camera crews. Reporter savannah braces for a face to face showdown. He did wrong. Every choice has a consequence. Reporter the stunning conclusion, next we, the tv loving people, want our whole house to be filled with entertainment. Roooooaaar easy boy. But we dont want annual contracts and hardware. You scoundrel ugh we just want to stream live tv. And we want it for 10 dollars a month. raspy wow. Id like that in my house. Its a very big house. Yeah, mine too. Look at us. Just two bros with sick houses. High five. Directv now. A big streaming deal. 10 dollars a month when you have the at t unlimited plus plan. Do you need the most trusted battery in your flashlight . Maybe not. Maybe you could trust your own eyes to see in the dark. Ahh ow. Or you could just trust duracell. woman vo o my husband didnt recognize how tour grandson. Eeth.

Cameron harrison and savannah face to face. Both lives irreparably and forever changed. But Something Else has changed here in Baldwin County since that infamous house party. That brash District Attorney hallie dixon decides not to seek reelection. And a new d. A. Takes a fresh look at the case. And just weeks ago, on the eve of camerons trial, a stunner. Cameron harrison has been granted youthful offender status. Reporter Cameron Harrison takes a plea deal under youthful offender status. The terms and conditions of the deal, all settled in secrecy. It allows the proceeding to be treated sort of like a juvenile proceeding, meaning everything gets sealed, the public doesnt find out what happens, it eventually gets erased from the record. Nothing about the case is public. Reporter all we know tonight is that cameron is not in jail. An outcome agreed to by both sides. The key when thinking about why was a deal cut is to look to the alleged victim. Was that because she was pressured by the d. A. . Who knows. Was it because she didnt want to testify . A smart move for the defendant. If he can not serve time, get treated as a youthful offender. Reporter cameron and his family were scheduled to do an interview with us. However, part of that plea agreement prevented both sides from talking further about the case. Its not really a resolution at all. Those people who look at him as a criminal or her as a liar, theyre never going to be dissuaded because theres no real conclusion. Reporter for many, the case ending, just like it started in a fog. What happened behind that locked door will stay behind that locked door. The reminder for parents is underage drinking and limited supervision can lead to some pretty dangerous consequences. Reporter and that may leave you wondering about that grandmother, the only adult present that night. She pled guilty to a charge of hosting the party and allowing she got six months probation and was fined 250. Telling local reporters its a sad situation for all parties in involved. I trusted teenagers. That was my problem. Reporter as for savannah, when we last spoke before the plea deal, she had this to say about cameron. If you could Say Something to him right now, what would you say . I forgive you. Reporter you do . Yes. Lifes too short to harbor any pain and anger. My way of starting off closure is forgiving. Reporter she is now on her way to college, and says she hopes to inspire other young women who may have been sexually assaulted. I used to think that i was weak, dramatic, too emotional, couldnt handle anything and then going through this, ive realized how strong i really am and that i underestimated myself the whole time. She plans to study abroad and get an International Business degree. Thats our program tonight. Thank you for watching. Im elizabeth vargas. And im david muir.
