Where are they now?!?

Well, in my point of view, I figured that the real-life judge that was the basis of the movie, is dead. The young lady who was harmed, is now a lawyer in a big city, somewhere in the western part of the USA! She did get married and have a family!

Quotes
Judge Julius Sullivan: [in his chambers, with Jodi's dad and Rene's mom] We're in a sad era, where parents have lost control of their children and don't know how to get it back. Well, I'm here to help you bring discipline back to your families... Without the fear of punishment, small breaches of the law become large ones. So I'll inject a little fear into your girls, like a physician administering a shot; think of it as a vaccine to cure bad behavior.
