According to Derrick Williams, the detective that dealt with Sharper’s case, “prosecutors were hesitant to move too quickly on a local football hero with deep pockets and savvy lawyers,” (Williams). Sharper, however, agreed to plead guilty to rape and attempt of rape for four of the nine cases he was accused of in order receive a deal cutting his 20-year sentence down to nine years. Vice Sports editor, Jessica Luther, stated that although, “gathering evidence, compelling Sharper to give a sample of his DNA, that DNA matching the rape kit, video evidence, and witness corroboration... they held off an arrest warrant” (Luther).

First of all, she was previously given the services of an interpreter and she did not use them. Instead of relying on the interpreter, Amy used lip reading and asked teachers to repeat instructions. Second, Amy was passing from grade to grade without the use an interpreter. Third, Amy was performing better than…
