Teen Given 10 Years For Having Sex With Girl Two Years Younger

Never did i say that he deserved it......He was guilty of a crime, was he not?? He admitted to having oral sex with her, so he admitted to a crime? Im saying by law they have to find him guilty of a crime that he admitted to and they gave him the mininum sentence......... The law says that a minor cannot give consent because they are a minor......
If im 19 and the girl is 17......Am i not going to jail becuz she was jus because2 years younger then me????....... I dont agree with laws but they are there and if you break them then you get punished........ Should he be in jail no but he did admit to breaking the law.....
Here to set the record straight:
Seen this shit on ESPN: Outside The Lines a couple weeks ago.
He was black. So was she. They WERE NOT caught by a janitor in a bathroom. It was at a party in a hotel, and he, along with 4 (I think) other guys had sex with an OBVIOUSLY inhebriated girl about 17 years of age. SHE then went to the police the next day, saying she had been raped. When police began investigating, they discovered that the party had been videotaped, and saw, in graphic detail, the sex acts along with the oral sex by the 15 year old on Genarlow.
While the jury, during the trial, saw the video, as did many other people, they were forced to decide on TWO seperate charges, that involving the 17 year old (rape) and the 15 year old (child molestation). (This was ALL in the story on page 4...)
What the ESPN story told was how many believe that being that the jury couldn't agree on a guilty verdict for the rape of the 17 year old, they ''made up'' for it with the molestation charge. One juror said she would have sentenced him for the rape (she believed he was guilty), but her co-jurors talked her out of it, saying they would rule guilty on the molestation charge.
This kid was an honor student, a highly touted athlete, a stand-up kid in the community...and he was black. This, I feel, goes to show you that no matter how ''good'' you try to be, in some places, you're still ''second fiddle'' to others...
Sorry for the ramblings...just my two cents.
