I have to say this is just more "Do it for the kids" hysteria. I have a friend who when he was 15 had consentual relations with a 12 year old. He is now 28 and recently went to court for failing to register. He got off with probation. The judge at sentencing stated the beings he had no offences since he was 15 and it was for all intents half a life time ago. He has a job that pays good (for the area) He is engaged to be married and has never had so much as a speeding ticket his entire adult life. I have to ask what is wrong with the above picture? It is far to easy to make it on this list. My arguement has been if they have served their time then leave then alone. If there still unsafe for society then why do we let them out? If anyone has an answer for this question I'm all ears. Also teens reach physical maturity about 16-17 years of age. If a a 19 year old guy has realtions with a 17 year old girl. What crime has he commited that deserves 20 year in federal pen? They are both of close compareable levels of maturity both physical and mental. Simply becuase the one has not reached that "magic number" set forth by Uncle Sam. I'm not talking about pre-teen girls and 40 years guys here. I'm talking about a consenting couple in with their happens to be a difference in age.
I just have to ask what's wrong here. One more thing. when charges are filed, who files them most of the time? Not the two involved. To those of you with daughters how many of you actauly like their boyfriends? And further more how many of you would go out of your way to put distance between them and your daughters? I rest my case.
