Spanish Supreme Court Ups Conviction of Men Who Raped and Filmed Teenager in 2016
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Spain's highest court convicted five men who go by the collective
nickname "the Wolf Pack" for the rape of a teenage girl at Pamplona's
bull-running festival in 2016, which they filmed on their cellphones.
The ruling, which carries a 15 year prison sentence, overturns an
earlier, much less severe conviction of "sexual abuse," which triggered
widespread outrage and mass protests around the country.
