Clearly, the "teen" deserves to go to jail AND TO BE DEPORTED! Who cares about their defense - it's nonsense!
Typical liberal biased article from The Advocate

These little girls now a days look older than they are and for her to have met him on two different occasions and had oral sex with him you can't sit here and put the blame on that man alone these teeneagers need to stay in there place and stop trying to be so dam grown! Where is the little girl parents and she might be pregnant tell where is the birth control or condoms that's crazy now they want to ruin this mans life that is not right at all! There are a lot of people out here messing around with young girls and if that was the case the prisons will be full!

When President Clinton engaged in the same activity with Monica Lewinsky it wasn't even sex -wagging his finger at us he declared "I did not have sex with that woman!"

When a teenager engages in exactly the same activity he goes to jail for rape.

It just depends on what your meaning of 'is' is, I guess.

"Keeney said this case comes close to regulating consensual, if unwise, sexual activity between teenagers.

"We're going to regulate sex activity among teenagers?" Keeney asked. "We're kidding ourselves." "

Since when is 12 teenager??? She was still a child.

She may or may not have had negligent parents, but she's still a child - if she did have parents who neglected her, it wouldn't be at all unusual for her to be "looking for love in all the wrong places". She shouldn't be blamed if her parents weren't paying enough attention to her. Since we don't know anything about the parents, we really can't say...in this day and age, she could have been being raised by grandparents or a single mom working all the time with several other kids, we just don't know. 12-year olds are not usually capable of making mature decisions no matter what kind of parents they have. Peer pressure is a huge influence, even more so if the parents are absent physically or emotionally.

-- he met her at a middle school and her friends looked their age... he definitely should have known better. He deserves the time and to be deported as well.

Ruin his life! You couldn't be more wrong! What about what this 12-year old girl has to live with for the rest of her life? And it isn't "they" who are responsible for his life, he is. He's the one who damaged his life, her life, and everyone around their lives. She was child! He's dead wrong and deserves to pay for his horrible crime. He's a criminal and criminals are to pay for their crimes, especially crimes against CHILDREN!

HANG ON, TONYA IS ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. REMEMBER THIS SHE CHOSE TO HAVE ORAL SEX! SHE CHOSE TO OPEN HER LEGS AND LET THIS KID HAVE SEX WITH HER! SO HOW'S IT HIS FAULT?? THERE'S ALOT OF LITTLE GIRLS OUT THERE WHO SPECIFICALLY FIND IT EXCITING TO LURE OLDER GUYS TO BELIEVE THEY'RE OLDER TO GET THE ATTENTION FROM THERE YOUNG FRIENDS! GIRLS ARE AT FAULT AS WELL. IF YOU LIE ABOUT YOUR AGE THEN THE OTHER PERSON SHOULDN'T BE TO BLAME. IF THESE GIRLS WANT TO ACT LIKE THEY'RE OLDER AND CHOSE TO MAKE ADULT DECISIONS LIVE WITH YOUR CHOICES AND DEAL WITH THE FACT. SHE ONLY TOLD ON HIM B/C SHE THOUGHT SHE WAS PREGNANT?! IT TAKE TO TANGO LITTLE GIRL... DID YOU NOT OPEN YOUR LEGS? WHAT IS EVERY GUY/BOY HAVE TO ASK A FEMALE FOR HER ID? NOW TO VERIFY AGE? THAT'S ABSURD. I'M A 28 YEAR OLD FEMALE. WHAT'S THE REPRUCCION FOR LYING GIRLS? NOTHING? THEY GET TO WALK AWAY FREE AFTER DRAGGING A LIE OUT .... THEN PLAY THE VICTIM? PLEASE! A CHILD IS A BEING WHO CONCIOUSLY DOESN'T KNOW FROM RIGHT AND WRONG! B/C OF AGE? PLEASE! ITS COMMON SENSE! SHE KNEW WHAT SHE WAS DOING! IF SHE FELT IT WAS WRONG, WHY CONTINUE TO DO IT? SHE OBVIOUSLY THOUGHT IT WAS RIGHT AND IT WAS WHAT SHE WANTED TO DO! MY 3 YEAR OLD KNOWS FROM RIGHT AND WRONG. THIS 12 YEAR OLD KNEW IT WAS WRONG TO CARRY A LIE GIVING A FALSE AGE.. AND PRETENDING SHE'S OLDER. SHE KNEW ABSOLUTELY WHAT SHE WAS DOING! SHE WANTED TO POINT THE BLAME SO IN CASE SHE WAS PREGNANT SHE CAN TELL HER PARENTS SHE WAS RAPED BY HIM AND NOT MAKE IT LOOK LIKE SHE CONSENTED TO HER MANY SEXUAL ACTS. ITS ONE THING IF SHE ADMITS IT WAS WRONG THE FIRST TIME , BUT A FEW OTHER TIMES. PLEASE. GIVE ME A BRAKE!!!!!!!!!!

If in fact this 12 year old appears several years older and it could be proven she misrepresented her true age I have to agree with 'unknown_06901'. Fortunately for many both ignorance and stupidity are not criminal acts in and of themselves. Acts based on lies and deceit should be judged in the totality of the facts and whether a reasonable and prudent individual could determine the truth.

This article should never even have been in the paper to begin with. It was a crime against a 12-year-old. There is a victim here and this paper reports it as if because it was consenual it's not statutory rape. That's what the law is on the books for people. Ruin his life? TFB. He should have thought about that beforehand - even if she lied, doesn't matter. It's against the law!

Just to give you a what if, what if he didnt know? Are you aware of how many laws you break during the course of the day?
