yeah well, you're also ****ing stupid.

seriously, since when did being a senior trying to nail sophmores become some kind of weird deviant behavior.

the majority of kids have been trying to do that since time ****ing began. We've gotten so ****ing hysterical about protecting children nobody has any god damned sense anymore.

This sums it up best for me: It's legal in Georgia for an 18-year old to have sex of any kind with a 14-year old.

He had sex with a 15 year old, supplied booze, and drugs....if he was not an athelete, no one would give a damn.

Come to think of it, I dont anyway.

Well the little twist is that its no longer a felony. The law has been amended to a misdemeanor. But not retroactively.

No sir. If he had gotten screwed it would have been OK. He's in jail because he only got a hummer.

Seriously, that's messed up.

From the legal system, no punishment should be given for the sexual act. Looking at the ages 17 and 15, that is on average a high school sophomore performing the BJ on a high school senior. That happens a lot more than people (especially the idiot far right wing bible-thumping conservatives) want to believe and IMO, it's just not a huge deal. Kids that age are going to sexually active more often than not and no amount of archaic ridiculous laws are going to change that.

The kid should be punished by the legal system for the drugs and booze present at the party, I wouldn't have a problem with that, and the kid's mother should give him the whipping of his life for exercising such horrible judgment, but that should be it. He screwed up, but he shouldn't be locked up in the system for the 10 most important years of his life (and being labeled a sex offender alongside rapists and pedophiles is an absolute joke). Our legal system has taken a kid that could have gone on to get a college education and maybe make something of himself and completely ruined his life.

Her own mother has said that she (the daughter, not the mother....that's another story) is the one that initiated it. So, to answer your question.....none.

How about a punishment that fits the crime? 10 years? Pssh.

The kid who brought the video camera should be shot. Anyone who gets busy while they know they are being videotaped is stupid.
Was the bj-giving 15 year old slut white?

I seem to remember that she was. Real Sports did a deal on this last year.

Intersting.
Regardless of what they might say there are an awful lot of white folks who look at sex between the little white girl and the big black buck as a social and criminal offense. Not all of them live in the South.
Wonder if this case might have been different if the girl had been black??

Now we're shooting kids for poor judgement. Brilliant.

Maybe you should be shot.

One of the things that gets me is that everyone seems powerless to change what has happened even though 99.9% of people want it to get cleared up. That is messed up.

And to el borracho, no I don't there should have been any time involved at all. She initiated the act that he was convicted for and obviously was there voluntarily. The fact that there was an orgy has nothing to do with anything and if I read the article right, she was the only one who was 15. Heck, I have a friend who had her first child at 15 and then got married to the father. They are still married to this day and the child is in his mid 20's now.

Kids, remember....NEVER ALLOW PICTURES OR ANY OTHER FORM OF RECORD WHEN YOU DO STUPID SH*T!

Maybe the gal who blew this kid can go blow the governor to ensure his release (no pun there).

Kind of a full circle zen thing.

He didn't earn jailtime in the sense that he, in actuality, did nothing wrong on a moral or ethical level. I imagine he didn't take the plea bargain because he doesn't consider himself guilty. Smart kid.
