>> hi, everyone. welcome to "bay area life." i'm lizzie bermudez. you know, the bay area has so much to offer -- everything from food, entertainment, interests, and lifestyles -- and we've got plenty to share with you today. on today's show, we're enlightening all of our senses. a sneak peek at the tony award-winning musical "hello, dolly!" >> in a word, "hello, dolly!" is joy. it's pure joy. and then, on top of that, it just has such heart. >> then, lighting up the night with an enchanting exhibition. >> it's delightful, it's whimsical, and, really, his intention is to let people come together and have a joyous experience together. >> and summer-camp fun. >> they have all their lines memorized. they've created all their costumes, all of their sets, and it's just this really funny, great little production. >> but first, social-media

influencer brett cap shares his favorite healthy recipes. >> it doesn't matter if you are vegan, it doesn't matter if you love meat. these are healthy options that anybody can work into their diet. >> all of this fun driven by your northern california honda dealers. ♪ ♪ ♪ >> what's going on, guys? my name is brett. i'm a vlogger from the east coast. i'm out here in san francisco for the first time ever, and i'm gonna show you guys a couple healthy plant-based meals that you can incorporate into your diet. it doesn't matter if you are vegan, it doesn't matter if you love meat. these are healthy options that anybody could work into their diet. let's get started. ♪ right here, we have tofu and a couple other ingredients that i'm gonna show you three different ways you can cook them with the same ingredients,

basically. we're gonna make three different types of dishes with all of this. ♪ tofu is very versatile -- definitely a main source of protein for a plant-based diet and something that i wanted to feature in this episode for you guys today. so, first, what i'm gonna do is i'm gonna show you guys tofu tacos. so, for me, i don't want soggy tofu in anything i'm having. i have a video on my youtube channel called "how to make tofu taste like crispy chicken." i wanted to show you guys just basically how easy it is to go get some tofu that's already pre-marinated, pre-seasoned. so we're gonna take one block of this sriracha-baked tofu, okay? i'm going to dice it up. right here i have avocado oil. you can cook at a high temperature with avocado oil and not lose the benefits of what the avocado oil is bringing. basically, you just want to coat the pan with it. grab a little thing of minced garlic -- organic, preferably, and then we're gonna just be drizzling that on top and using that as just a little flavor add. [ sizzling ] all right. tofu is done. next is going to be what we're

using for the shell. what i like to do, though, that i don't think a lot of people do is to season the tortilla before i throw it on to get some heat. i like to just get a little bit of water on the outsides of these, and then i sprinkle some spices on them. all right, so we got them nice and crispy. we're gonna throw a little bit of mixture of tofu on top. a little bit of lettuce. i'll throw a little onion on top. pepper here just to add some color. all right, and then we have the radishes. i love chickpeas, so i'm gonna be using those. i also have some black beans. let's throw a little bit of salsa on top of here. what are tacos without cilantro, right? so got to kind of incorporate those on top. here i have a lime. this is just to kind of squeeze over at the end. there you guys go. two tacos, easy to make, colorful, healthy, and, most of all, beneficial. two different versions of one staple that will definitely add to a diet and only benefit you for the future. ♪ moving on, guys. we got our second option today. i'm gonna show you some lettuce wraps. using the tofu the same way.

the difference here is, we're not gonna be dicing and slicing. we're going to be cutting them in long strips because that's just the best way to kind of construct this option. so i'm gonna have some red peppers in here, some green peppers in here, and then, also, a cucumber. [ sizzling ] ♪ and then you want to start flipping over, and you'll start seeing a little bit of a golden take on the outside. among this arts-and-crafts table of vegetables that i have here, i'm gonna be using butter lettuce to make these lettuce wraps. i would recommend this, for sure, over anything else because it's the easiest to fold, it's pretty, it's green. we are going to rub these down first with sriracha. so we got a little turmeric. then we're gonna throw all the vegetables on top. next, let's get the tofu on here. as you see, it's nice and crispy. we've created that chicken-y texture to it. same ingredients, guys, new dish. so, you saw the simplicity. you saw how easy it is.

you saw what i used. work it in for yourself, and, i promise you, you won't be sorry. also, a little bonus for you guys. i'm gonna show you the same, exact process, but we're gonna be showing you a bowl. quinoa is packed with protein, packed with vitamins and minerals. create a nice little bed of quinoa. take your tofu. and then just put it across it. and you could just get messy with this. we don't want to go crazy with stacking. this is a bowl. this is meant to be mixed up. that's what i like. i like to get messy. and then, last but not least, we have our spices from before. and then i have just a little wedge of lime. give it a nice squeeze. and then just throw it on the side there. so, essentially, the same thing that we've been using for everything is now in a bowl. no tortilla, no lettuce wraps. just everything that would go inside with some quinoa. all right. so, these are the three options. i got some guests with me here. ♪ be honest, though. let's not just be -- you know, we're not gonna be nice to me. i want to know the real opinion.

>> it's perfect. lots of flavors. got a kick to it but not too strong. absolutely wonderful. >> crunchy and good? that wraps it up, guys. hope you guys enjoyed this whole process of easy ways to work healthy food into your diet. thank you, guys. ♪ >> coming up, why the star of the tony award-winning musical "hello, dolly!" loves the bay area. >> i started doing theater at 8 years old. when i first started doing shows, i didn't really know what broadway was, but then my parents were season subscribers to shn here in san francisco, so we came up and saw all the shows every year.

>> hi, everyone. i'm lizzie bermudez. you know, the tony award-winning musical "hello, dolly!" is playing here at the shn golden gate theatre in san francisco. we caught up with one of the stars, nic rouleau, who's a bay area native, to learn all about the show. ♪ ♪ >> in a word, "hello, dolly!" is joy. it's pure joy. i saw it six times in new york before i joined this touring production. i'm a little bit of a super fan of the show. it is a spectacle for the eyes. the costumes, the sets by santo loquasto are beautiful. it's expensive and lavish and lush. it is really the top-tier production of the show that you're ever going to see, and then, on top of that, it just has such heart. you know, it's a classic

old-school musical. i think people don't know what they're going to expect from that when they come in. they think they've seen "hello, dolly!" before, and every time they come out -- and i think we surprise them. the show is funny, but it's also gonna make you emotional at the end. it's really just such a perfect piece. ♪ ♪ i started doing theater at 8 years old. so i grew up in los altos, california -- born and raised, lived there for 18 years. it was great. you know, i went to catholic school for 12 years of my life and grew up doing a lot of children's theater in the bay area. so i did a lot at peninsula youth theatre down in mountain view, california -- did a couple shows at children's musical theater in san jose, as well -- really kind of got all of my training and acting and singing and dancing from those two places. my first production was a production of "peter pan" with peninsula youth theatre. i played a lost boy, slightly soiled -- the one who has his name sewed into all of his clothes 'cause he can't remember it, and i just got bit by the bug with that show, and i never stopped. i was doing four to five shows a year, as much as i could do.

when i first started doing shows, i didn't really know what broadway was, but then my parents were season subscribers to shn here in san francisco. so we came up and saw all the shows every year. so, i made my broadway debut at age 24. i was doing "the book of mormon." i was standing by for andrew rannells, who did the original elder price in the broadway production, and i did "the book of mormon" for six and a half years, and then "hello, dolly!" is the first thing i'm doing since that ended. i play cornelius hackl. he's the 33-year-old chief clerk to mr. vandergelder. i work at his hay-and-feed store, and i've been working there nonstop pretty much my entire life. i want nothing more than to take an evening off, go to new york city, go on an adventure, and kiss a girl. so that's what i'm gonna do in this show. [ laughs ] and that's what i try to do every night. our cast is really amazing. obviously we have betty buckley leading the show, and she is a force to be reckoned with. she is the voice of broadway, as they call her, and it's true. she is just so nice and wonderful in the show. she's so kind to us, which is so sweet.

she's just been a wonderful leader throughout the entire process that we've had. but, you know, aside from her, we also have some amazing people. playing mr. vandergelder is lewis stadlen. he's done 14 broadway shows. he is, like, a legend. he's an icon, and he's toured through san francisco many times before. he did "the producers" forever. he is so consistent and so wonderful, and i learn so much from watching him do a show every night. this is really a big, old-school broadway traditional musical. the sets, the costumes, the orchestrations, the choreography, the singing -- everything is big and huge and classic, and it's really unbelievable. i mean, it barely fits in this theater. you can't see this, but, like, literally, our set is pushed as far against the wall as it can go. everything is crammed in and hanging within an inch of its life. i mean, this is a big broadway musical. this is, literally, the best thing i could ever hope for. i am here doing what i love to do, and i'm also with all my family and seeing all my friends and getting to see everybody come to see me in the show. it's just so wonderful. i really couldn't ask

for anything more. >> you can see "hello, dolly!" at the shn golden gate theatre in san francisco now through march 17th. coming up... a magical exhibition through lights. >> there are 10 specific installations here. it's a very large, immersive installation.

♪ >> hi, everyone. welcome back to "bay area life." we're headed to our next stop, and i'm in the honda civic 2019, and i really like the honda satellite-linked navigation system. it makes getting around the bay area and anywhere you want to go so much easier. >> please drive the highlighted road. ♪ ♪ ♪ >> bruce is one in a million. he has said that his goal for this installation

is to invite people to come and to be kind to themselves and to be kind to others. >> bruce knew this needed to be a thematic exhibition, the first he's ever done, and he needed to create that exhibition around "the chronicles of narnia." ♪ >> montalvo is a multidisciplinary art center, and we present and produce performing arts, visual arts, literary arts, and even culinary arts in this incredible 175-acre garden and grounds. we also serve almost 20,000 schoolchildren a year. our mission is about engaging the community in the creative process, and we do that through our sally and don lucas artist residency, which each year brings artists, writers, composers, musicians, dancers, choreographers from all over the world to live and create new work here. bruce is the perfect artist for montalvo because we really are interested in finding ways to

activate this unique space. bruce was first seen by one of our patrons at an east coast premiere, and we knew then, when we invited him here, that he would be the perfect fit. >> we invited him to come and think about montalvo as a potential site for an exhibition. and he came. and, you know, he arrived here in the dark. he went to our artist residency. they're all contemporary buildings. and, waking up in the morning, he came up on the grounds, and he found montalvo was just completely magical. he saw the villa. he walked the gardens. and he knew this was sort of a place very close to his childhood memories of narnia. ♪ >> the inspiration behind these pieces is c.s. lewis' "the chronicles of narnia." but it's actually montalvo is the inspiration, because montalvo made me remember the books that i read as a child. they inspire me because they're

dealing with issues that i believe are important, and the images that c.s. lewis conjured up in a child's mind are beautiful. >> it's very special because there are 10 specific installations here. it's a very large, immersive installation. so when visitors come, they can expect to see light installations in trees, on the grounds, projection in and on the villa. it's really gonna be special. there are also first-ever-seen works that are international premieres, as well as this entire exhibition is the first of its kind ever exhibited publicly on the west coast. >> it's taking montalvo to a new level. it's doing something altogether different here. it's delightful. it's whimsical. and, really, his intention is to let people come together and experience -- you know, have a joyous experience together. >> there is a journey, actually, around the garden -- a visual journey. i want to show people -- you know, i've been using light

for many years. when i see a space, i immediately get a picture in my head. i just go for the gut feeling. the first piece of work that visitors will see is called "the good seed." "the good seed" is a reference to the lamppost in narnia. in the very first book, "the lion, the witch and the wardrobe," there is this magical iron victorian lamppost in the middle of a forest, in the middle of a wood. a piece that's sitting behind my shoulder -- you'll see these lilies of light. that was inspired by the third book. we lost a young lady in our studio this year. she was 25 years old. she was one of our art assistants. she worked with the studio for three years. and, tragically, she discovered she had cancer, and within six weeks, she died. and she was going to lead this installation. she was a really wonderful girl. very bright light.

and i feel she's here, and smiling down on us. so, i would just like to say, this is for libby. ♪ ♪ >> it really is a moment for us at montalvo, for all of us -- for my colleagues, for our board -- to see this institution step up to be at a point where we can give this gift. and i truly believe that "bruce munro: stories in light" will be a gift for our entire community. so i feel really blessed and honored, and deeply grateful to our many supporters who stepped up to help us realize this dream. >> coming up... a camp that your kids will love, really. >> ♪ just a small-town girl ♪ living in a lonely world your brain changes as you get older. but prevagen helps your brain with an ingredient originally discovered...

and stagecraft class. so, it's a two-week program. the first week is all about exploring different ideas, creating different ideas, writing their actual play. and the second week is all about rehearsing it when we put those pieces together and figuring out how they can use the skills they learned in the first week and put on a production at the end of the second week. the production -- it's a sort of musical because they have two musical numbers that they learn. but the main part of it are the plays. they have all their lines memorized. they've created all their costumes, all of their sets, and it's just this really funny, great little production that's really based out of all of their ideas. >> ♪ just a small-town girl ♪ living in a lonely world >> we are the theater on the peninsula and the theater for silicon valley. we reach seven counties in the bay area with all of our programming. and so this program is certainly available to anyone and everyone who wants to come. we have a variety of families that come from all over the place. >> ♪ theatreworks!

included in the ensemble?" >> all of the other theater camps i did, they just gave you a script. you got to audition. they gave you a part. they gave you some songs to memorize, and then they just did the play. but then this camp -- you get to write the play. you get to learn the songs. you get to act, and you also get to make the props, as well. >> it's really fun, and we get to go on the stage, which i like a lot. >> i'm getting to be somebody else by playing a different part than i am in real life. >> it makes me happy when i get to sing. >> this is my first time going to this camp, and i just love it. and i don't know -- they just impressed me on my first week, and i would definitely come back next year. >> i totally would come to this camp again. i love it! >> i love this camp so much, so i want to come back. >> the most rewarding part of my job is probably seeing the endings of the program -- to see a child smile who was unsure of what they're doing on

the first day, but on that last day, knowing that they're in place with the rest of their ensemble, and they're ready to go is an amazing experience to see someone smile and be confident in themselves. >> our daughter is very confident in general, but i think it's been valuable for her to interact with a lot of other kids when she's not the leader and has to be on the team. and that's something that really is a good place for her to grow. >> i think it was very interesting hearing from them what they did on a daily basis and how they learned lines. and, you know, they wanted me to sing the song with them, and they taught me the dance, so as a parent, i think i was learning along with them, regarding the performance. so it was a lot of fun for me. >> [ singing indistinctly ] ♪ theatre, theatreworks, works theatre! ♪ [ cheers and applause ] >> thanks so much for joining us. we hoped that you enjoyed

about a dozen in all. they tell a consistent story about savannah becoming what they called sloppy drunk. then, detective vannoy inevitably discovers this, cell phone video taken at the party. >> the video showed the young people carrying the victim across the house and to the stairway. >> reporter: what did you think when you saw that video? >> i took a long, hard look at it several times. and was mainly focusing on the condition of the victim. her body was limp. at one point she had her arm draped over her face and it, she was just like a wet rag. >> reporter: just a few precious seconds, but for a seasoned investigator, oh, so revealing. >> it's realtime footage taken

at the party, showing the condition of the victim. >> reporter: how important is this video to your case? >> in my mind, this video took this case way beyond probable cause to make an arrest. >> 18-year-old cameron harrison. >> house party -- >> reporter: a week after the party, cameron harrison is charged with first-degree rape, sparking a media frenzy. >> a charge of rape, a shocked and divided community. >> reporter: when his friends see him in court the next day, now clad in a new uniform, they are beside themselves. >> it was definitely a slap of reality. >> my best friend walking down a hallway with a bunch of criminals in an orange jumpsuit and shackles on, and cameras all in his face. >> that is so hard to see your friend like that. >> you go from a little small town kid playing football to a national media crisis. >> cameron, what really happened at that party? >> reporter: cameron pleads not guilty. he's released on bond, but placed on house arrest. suspended from the football team

and forced to take his classes online. the next night is the toros' first playoff game. but they will have to do it without cameron, the star running back. what was going through the team's mind? >> us in the student section and the football team did everything we could to let cameron know in spirit that he was there with us. that we wanted him there. so we put 4s everywhere. >> reporter: number 4, cameron's jersey. plastered in the stands and on social media, a public outpouring of support. and not just from teammates. "toros 4 ever" read this banner. girls wrote 4s on their wrists and even a number 4 on the quarterback's towel. >> we wanted it to be known that we supported our friend. >> reporter: for savannah, the display instantly visible on social media. it feels like she's become the town pariah. how did all of this strike you? >> it really just bothered me.

>> announcer: now, we continue with more of "20/20." >> this is not something that i would expect from cameron harrison in any way, shape or form. >> she didn't do anything wrong and she is being punished more than he is. >> reporter: the drama between

two spanish fort alabama high school students, savannah, and football player, cameron harrison, divided the town. cassie fambro wrote for the local news site al.com. >> there was just such a stark divide. there was the people who believed savannah and there was the people who thought that this was a witch hunt, that cameron harrison was unfairly portrayed as a criminal rapist. >> about two dozen spanish fort high school students defending him. >> he's innocent. >> reporter: while cameron's supporters were loud and proud, he was tight-lipped, never speaking in public or to the police. >> no comment. >> reporter: but he did speak to this woman, private investigator, alicia mcwhorter. hired by cameron's mom to gather intel. what was his state of mind like? what was he like? >> he was in a state of hyperawareness that he was under a microscope, and he needed to get the truth out. >> reporter: she says cameron recounts a familiar tale of booze, beer pong and all-out blowout. but new details emerge when he claims after savannah was carried up the stairs, he ended up in the bathroom with her. and that's when a familiar face

enters. kennedy, that girl who came to the party with savannah. >> cameron states that kennedy grabbed his face and kissed him, and then savannah grabbed his face and kissed him, and then they moved into the bedroom. at some point, kennedy gets up and leaves the room. >> kennedy denies that she, cameron, and savannah were kissing each other at the same time. >> cameron says it happened, kennedy states it didn't. we're at an impasse on that. >> reporter: and cameron says he and savannah are still not alone in that bedroom. there are others. and she tells them to leave. >> cameron told me that the alleged victim said, "get the 'f' out" and told another person, "i'm going to 'f' him." >> reporter: granted, this private investigator is being paid by cameron's family. but listen to what two others told detective vannoy. >> they heard the victim say "'f' me, cam."

>> reporter: but remember, the booze was flowing and memories, hazy. they can't agree on who was in the room. did you have consensual sex with cameron harrison? >> no. if i was in the condition in i'm right now, i would not have sex with cameron. >> reporter: and what about that controversial statement cameron allegedly made to her father. >> cameron clearly stated to me that he did not say that. >> reporter: how do you know what to believe? >> i can tell you that, that cameron's story was believable. and i do believe that the young woman consumed alcohol that may or may not have impeded her ability to remember exactly everything that happened. >> reporter: so in your mind she could have given consent but simply not remembered it? >> yes. i believe that. i do not believe she was passed out. no one saw her passed out. >> reporter: "not passed out" is key because the charge against cameron is that savannah couldn't consent because she was either physically helpless or

mentally incapacitated. >> the question all comes back to, what was she capable of doing at that moment? >> reporter: savannah says she becomes the victim of cyberbullying, and not just from classmates but from their parents too. >> it's hard enough, kids my age, doing these things, but when it's an adult, that just hits a new nerve to me. >> reporter: and then one night she's awoken to a loud bang. >> a large cement chunk of just rock, brick, about this big, shattered her window. >> the d.a. says the latest potentially dangerous attack crossed the line. >> reporter: and then savannah says one by one, many of her friends publically turned their back on her. >> i think their social life was more important to them than, you know, supporting me. >> reporter: with their daughter isolated and outcast, savannah's parents offered to move schools. >> i said, no, you're not going

to run me out. >> reporter: you wanted to stay at your school. >> i wanted to stay. to prove a point. i'm going be strong, i'm going to show them. i didn't make it through, like, first period. >> reporter: why not? >> everyone was staring at me like i was the devil, like, just giving me a look of disgust. >> reporter: savannah toughs it out for six months before the family decides to the sell their home and move out of spanish fort. >> i deserve to feel happy again. it's not, you know, that they got to me, it's just that i deserve a fresh start. >> reporter: now, it's savannah's turn to strike back, not even waiting for a trial. armed with her cell phone, she decides to go public. blogging about her reality and how society has it backwards when it comes to sexual assault. >> we teach don't get raped instead of don't rape. does anybody else not see a problem with this? >> reporter: why did you decide to start blogging? >> i wanted to have a voice. if you see a girl who's clearly

been drinking and to the point of passing out, you help her. >> reporter: next, the case is headed for court. both sides brace for battle. >> we don't expect to lose this case. cameron harrison also has the right to be publically exonerated. and publically vindicated for a false allegation. >> you cannot rape an unconscious girl. it doesn't matter if you are a high school athlete star. you cannot do this. >> reporter: but could savannah's own words come back to haunt her? >> there was a blatant text saying, you did not rape me. >> reporter: they say snapchats disappear. not this one. stay with us.

"u didn't rape me. i mean u took advantage of me but i forgive you and i know u were drunk." it's a huge break for cameron's defense. and for his buddies, it reinforces what they believed all along. >> there was a blatant text saying, from her to cameron, you did not rape me. that should have ended it. she admitted that he didn't. >> if she said you didn't rape

her, we know that you didn't rape her. she said it. she told him that. >> reporter: this snapchat that she sends, "hey, i know you didn't rape me." >> that just goes to show that she didn't know the meaning of rape. >> reporter: savannah says the message was part of a larger conversation initiated by him, but only this snippet was saved by cameron. >> well, the selling point to snapchat, the reason that it's popular is, if you don't screenshot it and save it, it's gone. >> reporter: and the breaks keep coming for cameron. remember that video of savannah being carried up the stairs? his defense attorney claims to have found more of it. this additional frame where savannah appears awake and smiling. the defense seems to say that there's another second in that where she's smiling. what's your impression of that? >> unconscious people can make all kinds of facial expressions and they can have their eyes open. my position is that she's physically helpless. and that is very much bolstered by the fact that she's having to be carried. >> reporter: two key pieces of

evidence but both sides saying it proves their case. >> her smiling doesn't necessarily mean this was not a rape, but as jurors evaluate the case and have to decide, is it proof beyond a reasonable doubt, every little factor becomes relevant. >> reporter: but that's little comfort to cameron as he awaits trial. for the past six months, these four walls have become cameron's closest companions. now, only photos providing a peek at the life he once enjoyed. >> this is my senior banner. it says, running back, cameron harrison. all my friends made this for me. >> reporter: cameron showing us this window into a life seemingly put on perma hold. >> i'm blessed to have so much support from all of my friends and family. >> reporter: trapped by a dark cloud above him, and that device

around his ankle, monitoring his movements. >> how far, cameron, are you allowed to go? >> i can go to, like, across the street over there. >> reporter: ironically, the former running back's world is now limited to the length of a football field, 100 yards. his mom karon. >> we just deal with the days as they come through. our love grows stronger every day. and we're going to make it through this. >> reporter: suddenly, throngs of kids begin to arrive. cameron's classmates. it's graduation day. >> cameron not being able to walk with us definitely, you know, kind of makes me a little heartbroken. my best friend. >> reporter: they don caps and gowns for a makeshift ceremony. >> you don't have your tassel? >> there's one in the kitchen. >> go get it. it is a big deal. >> reporter: while the future

appears bright for them, cameron's is still unknown. he is facing the possibility of ten years to life for rape and district attorney hallie dixon is showing no signs of mercy, local hero though he may be. do football players get a free pass? >> absolutely not. not as long as we're prosecuting these cases. they will not get a free pass. >> reporter: so for you there's no question. cameron harrison is a rapist. >> there's no question. i'm not saying that he is this evil human being. i am saying what he did was wrong. >> reporter: when we come back, cameron harrison's day in court is coming. >> we did everything we could to block the camera crews. >> reporter: savannah braces for a face-to-face showdown. >> he did wrong. every choice has a consequence. >> reporter: the stunning conclusion, next.

>> announcer: now, we continue with more of "20/20." >> reporter: after 18 grueling months, it was supposed to be judgment day. the stage was set. cameron harrison and savannah face to face. both lives irreparably and forever changed. but something else has changed here in baldwin county since that infamous house party. that brash district attorney hallie dixon decides not to seek re-election, and a new d.a. takes a fresh look at the case. and on the eve of cameron's trial, a stunner. >> tonight, cameron harrison has been granted youthful offender status. >> youthful on fender status. >> reporter: cameron harrison takes a plea deal under youthful offender status. the terms and conditions of the deal, all settled in secrecy. >> it allows the proceeding to

be treated sort of like a juvenile proceeding, meaning, everything gets sealed, the public doesn't find out what happens, it eventually gets erased from the record. >> now, nothing about the case is public. >> reporter: all we know tonight is that cameron is not in jail. an outcome agreed to by both sides. >> the key when thinking about why was a deal cut is to look to the alleged victim. was that because she was pressured by the d.a.? who knows. was it because she didn't want to testify? it's a smart move for the defendant. if he can not serve time, get treated as a youthful offender. >> reporter: cameron and his family were scheduled to do an interview with us. however, part of that plea agreement prevented both sides from talking further about the case. >> it's not really a resolution at all. those people who look at him as a criminal or her as a liar, they're never going to be dissuaded because there's no

real conclusion. >> reporter: for many, the case ending, just like it started -- in a fog. >> what happened behind that locked door will stay behind that locked door. >> the reminder for parents is underage drinking and limited supervision can lead to some pretty dangerous consequences. >> reporter: and that may leave you wondering about that grandmother, the only adult present that night. she pled guilty to a charge of hosting the party and allowing she got six months probation and was fined $250. telling local reporters -- >> it's a sad situation for all parties involved. i trusted teenagers. that was my problem. >> reporter: as for savannah, when we last spoke to her before the plea deal, she had this to say about cameron. if you could say something to him right now, what would you say to him? >> i forgive you. >> reporter: you do? >> yes. life's too short to harbor any pain and anger. my way of starting off closure is forgiving.

>> reporter: she's now in college and she hopes to inspire other young women who may have been sexually assaulted. >> i used to think that i was weak, dramatic, too emotional, couldn't handle anything and then going through this, i've realized how strong i really am and that i underestimated myself the whole time. >> reporter: savannah plans to study abroad at some point and working toward a degree in fashion. that's our program tonight. for all of us here at "20/20" and at abc news, have a good weekend.
