Teen Live-streamed Her Friends’ Rape: Adolescence Friendship and Bullying Even though people may think that teens are still children, but they are much maturer than we might imagine and can do things that people may never expect them to do. In a recent Broadly report (Kazdin, 2016), I read that on February 27, 2016, Marina Lonina, who was 18 at that time, live streamed her friend being raped by a 29-years-old man on Periscope app. She didn’t call the police and she claimed that she was doing it to stop the incident, but later was â€Å"caught up by the likes† so she couldn’t stop.
