Teen used Facebook to meet young girl for sex in the woods; faces 50 years in prison. - Polidicks

Morally right or wrong who cares, he knew the laws and he willingly broke them. You don't change laws by breaking them, that's not the democratic process. The only thing wrong about this is the 50 years but that's up to a judge, not the law itself.

50 years is quite extreme for this.

Still absurd, but assuming it's gonna be the absolute maximum sentence on every charge is a gross misunderstanding of how sentencing works.

the girl gave consent and knew exactly what she was doing, it wasnt rape at all, and he gets FIFTY YEARS?! how did the police find out anyway?

[QUOTE=MightyMax;33732350]since he's 19 and she just became a teen, some punishment is in order. 20 years maybe. But fucking [I]50?![/I][/QUOTE] I really don't think that statutory rape should be any more than 5 to be honest, considering both parties consented, the main problem is her being underage.

50 years is absolutely disgusting. People get less than that for murder.

[QUOTE=krazipanda;33727912]I always wonder why the time in jail isn't the age difference. 50 fucking years is OUTRAGEOUS[/QUOTE] Rapists and drug dealers get smaller sentences than this. This is bullshit.

lol "carnal knowledge" I have "carnal knowledge" of a 2 year old

[QUOTE=sami-elite;33733680]I remember some priest or something sexually assaulted 38 kids and didn't get 50 years.[/QUOTE]I remember a priest was it, admitted doing like 40 kids and he didn't get anything at all. It was in the fp news not too long ago.

[QUOTE=Elecbullet;33727702]Carnal knowledge, a euphemism for sex. It's like to "know" in the Biblical sense - "Cain knew his wife, and she bore children". Fun fact: In French, there are two verbs for "to know" - connaitre and savoir. You ONLY use connaitre to refer to a person, like "I know her". Otherwise, you're saying you fucked her.[/QUOTE] To "know" in the biblical sense is "connaître" too. If you use "savoir" for a person it just doesn't mean anything.

50 years is fucking stupid.

because that 13 year old girl had no idea what she was getting into god this is fucking stupid and you know if it was a 13 year old boy and a 19 year old girl, nothing would happen

[QUOTE=zerothefallen;33727470]12 and over bend them over[/QUOTE] If they're off the clock they're free to fuck. Or If there's grass on the field, play ball.

There is many 13-14 years old girl at my old school that was dating with 20-25 years old man.

Fifty years is insane, this is just another example of how much of a joke the judicial system is.

Rate me dumb but, this is stupid. 50 years is way too long. My step-dad's brother had consensual sex with a 13 year old for a long time, she even said it was consensual. Everyone said she looked older than 13 and kind of a hoe. He got 20 years for consensual sex. I'm sorry, but you can get less years for actually killing someone. 20 and 50 years are dramatic.

innocence my fucking ass. The American legal system when it comes to sex is so fucking assbackwards.

man this justice system is a smelly piece of bullshit. 19 year old, 1 year less from being 18, gets [b]50 fucking years[/b] in prison? There goes his life. The guy is finally a teen-adult and his life becomes ruined Because he wanted to bang a girl who [b]wanted[/b] to be banged. instead of giving him atleast 5 or 10 years, 50? stay classy justice system [QUOTE=Ermac20;33727882]way to ruin 1 mans life fuck you america[/QUOTE] i'm american and i approve of this

50 is way to long for something like this. You would probably get less for regular rape.

That is twice as long as the man who kept his daughter in his basement for 25 years raping her repeatedly.

[QUOTE=J!NX;33727437]I thought she was going to be like, 18... 13 is definitely fuck all too young. Though she had to have known what she was doing.[/QUOTE] People suck dicks at 13.

It's always HORRIBLE PEDOPHILIC RAPE whenever a teenager [I]consents[/I] to having sex with someone who is an adult/is much older. Can we please learn to accept the idea that when most people consent to having sex, they actually realize all of the implications and won't have HORRIBLY MANGLED PSYCHES for the rest of their lives? I hate our justice system.

Bad reading :v:
