Megan Williams case

I’ve just learned of a heinous crime perpetrated by six men and women in West Virginia. The details of case are harrowing, but what I’ve been wondering since I read the story is why this hasn’t been covered more widely, especially by the New York Times or many other mainstream newspapers. The AP is covering the story, but I’m staggered something like this isn’t more important, say as much as Britney’s custody hearing.
