The prosecution of this "crime" is so ridiculous that there has to be something that doesn't meet the eye. Without knowing much about this, I can't help but think the kid (male) was black and that he got his hummer from a white youth with an embarassed influential white mom and dad.
My gut reaction says racism.

That post bring up the scene from "Traffic" where the lily-white daughter of the drug czar is getting railed by a large African American gentleman so she can have money for drugs. Utterly disturbing scene.
Back on point, I think someone said both people in the case were black. It's just a case of a reeruned law and the judge didn't have the guts to go out on a limb and set a new precedent by not prosecuting/sentencing to the letter of the law.
