The case gained additional exposure this week when a group calling itself Knight Sec and saying it is part of Anonymous -- the loosely organized cooperative of activist hackers -- published a video purporting to show Steubenville students discussing the assault in joking tones.

In the video, a teenager makes joke after joke about the girl's condition, saying she must have died because she didn't move during one assault.

For instance, he said Friday on CNN's "Starting Point" that one widely circulated image showing two people, apparently teenagers, holding a girl by her arms and legs has been taken out of context. Madison said his client is one of the teenagers shown in the image.

"The photo is out of context," he said. "That young lady is not unconscious. That young lady was capable of walking, and her friends are individuals who indicated that information to the police. And they weren't selected (by prosecutors) for this hearing that we've had thus far because that didn't serve the purpose of the hearing."
