Late 80s -- in Glen Ridge, NJ - bunch of popular football players assaulted a mentally challenged classmate while other football players looked on. The boys were all convicted but to the best of my knowledge, none of them served any time at all.

At minimum, this is 4th degree sexual assault, because based on a defintion found in the sexual offenders thread, 4th degree assault is sex with someone who is incapable of giving consent by reason other than age.
