WTF?

Those of you in Nebraska, explain this too me.

So, I guess the rule is, molest away if you are short?

Granted, I don't know everything about the case - what the 2 counts were, how old the minor was, etc. but at face value, does not look good.

WTH, is right....

I read this and read your comments too and then tried to partially rationalize the issue....i.e. he was 20 having sex with a 17 year old and her parents got upset and had him arrested...etc...but I have to be honest, even this sounds like excusing something that shouldn't be excused with a slap on the wrist. Maybe.

That being said, IF this guy actually had inappropriate contact with a 10-12 year old or younger...this judge is COMPLETELY off her freakin' rocker. I agree though...more information is definitely needed than is provided in the article to determine the appropriate level of outrage. The thing is though, the article says up front "child". So, unless the reporter is overextending that definition, this guy should be thrown in with the other animals and locked up for the rest of his life. I don't care how "small" he is.

AND, they should forcibly remove certain body parts.....

HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND EVERYONE!!!
