This kid needs to get the eff out of there. I hope the media gets ahold of this and runs with it. Probably the biggest load of bullshit I have read in a long time. I def. feel for the guy, insane what could've been for him if this didn't happen. I just hope he gets out soon.

This will get really reeruned when it does come up and they release him and some dumbass conservative/religious group protests his release.

I want to audition for the part of the kid. (provided the 15 year old is portrayed by an 18 year old, we don't want another dakota fanning thread)

I am a little confused. Genarlow chose not to take the plea bargain that was offered because he did not want the sex offender label. Since he was convicted of the crime, he recieved the sex offender label, anyway. At this point, the prosecutor offered him the same plea bargain (which would have greatly reduced the prison time) but Genarlow again chose not to take the plea bargain. Why the hell didn't he take the bargain? At this point, what negative would there have been to accepting the plea bargain? Am I missing something?

People want to villify the prosecutor but, according to the article, the prosecutor seems willing to make the same bargain and, if I am understanding this correctly, Genarlow hasn't asked. Why would he not ask? It makes no sense.

By the way, the BJ wasn't just a BJ from a younger girlfriend. It was part of an underage orgy that Genarlow and his friends videotaped. He doesn't deserve 10 years, but he earned some jail time and the sex offender label, IMO.

I'm guessing he is trying to get his conviction overruled by means of the new law.

Although the new law says it doesn't include previous cases. He is trying to get his case dropped becuase the new law was based on his case.

Get the case dropped how? The new law says it's legal to receive oral sex from 15 year old girls?

If I'm reading the article right, it is no longer a Felony to recieve oral sex from a 15 year old when you are 17

I guess I am still confused... would he still be considered a sex offender under the new law? Because that was the stated sticking point for Genarlow, wasn't it? He did not want the sex offender label.

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.

the girl went to his school and was only 2 years younger than him.

he was a senior ... she was a sophomore

How in the hell does that deserve a "sex offense" label?

dam ... juniors and seniors at my high school used to hit on sophomores all the time.

Sure-Oz · 01-25-2007, 01:30 AM

I'm sorry the prosecuter and the state of georgia sucks big balls.

Sure-Oz · 01-25-2007, 01:33 AM

This part was the most disturbing

"At the same time this trial was under way, a local high school teacher, a white female, was found guilty of having a sexual relationship with a student -- a true case of child molestation. The teacher received 90 days. Wilson received 3,650 days."

KChiefer · 01-25-2007, 02:32 AM

Thanks for sharing. That's total bullcrap!

You can stick it the poon, but not the mouth? Well...what about the ass?

This is outrageous compared with the sentence that teacher got.

Hopefully the ball keeps rolling.
