Steubenville teen convicted of rape returns to playing football
Ma'Lik Richmond, one of the two teenagers convicted of raping a 16-year-old girl in a Steubenville, Ohio rape case, is now reportedly playing football again at Steubenville High School.
Local news channel WTRF reports that Richmond is "back on the roster at Steubenville Big Red" as of Monday.
Richmond, who was released from the Ohio Juvenile Detention Center in January, will still be required to register as a sex offender for the next 20 years. --Meghan DeMaria
