You can see the bulk of the rain is moved past new york at this point.

At first only the black student was charged with assault, but now months later the District Attorney is also filing charges against the white student for ethnic intimidation and cyber harassment. Harassment, whether its based on race or otherwise, is a crime. Reporter the District Attorney says this sends a message especially to a group of white students at the school calling themselves the rednecks responsible for harassing black kids for months.
