theweaselkingHer MySpace says she's 19, divorced, and looking for no-strings sex.
Her 22-year-old lover is going to prison, because she's lying, she's actually 13.
Bonus: He's not the first guy to be fooled. And not the first to go to jail.
Guess the state!

Re: Wow...
Date: 2008-06-02 05:17 pm (UTC)You prove that they're not of sound mind to consent to sex, thus making it rape... that is after all the *INTENT* of statutory rape laws to say that, categorically, these people are not capable of consent.
The problem with THAT is that you've just put the victim on trial, as the defense throws everything they can to prove that she DID know what she was doing, that she DID consent, and that she's TOTALLY capable of making that decision on her own.
Which, in a case like this, is okay.
In a lot of other cases, not so much.
