I definitely do not see it in terms of vengeance, but I do see it relative to the way we punish other crimes, including EXTREMELY petty things like growing weed that are seen as a Big Deal by the government and put people away for many times as long as this guy. I also see it as being a very serious crime that should be treated as one of the most serious crimes on the books. I just think six months is too light. And it's three months in practical application.

The judge's decision was partly based on twisting of the situation ("she didn't say no, so she consented!") and his family and friends downplaying the issue and writing him letters which he read and took seriously. The case was skewed in his favor from the start. The overall problem here is we don't take rape seriously in a judicial sense and that needs to change.

OK.

I have a whole pet peeve about incarceration, and I knew nothing about this case before I basically stuck my foot in mouth and kept going in this thread.

I read more on it, and the judge's sentence and explanation of same seems incredibly messed up.

Sorry for sounding like a giant turd.

thanks, and it's good. Glad you did some more research.

Definitely there are many times when the justice system overreaches. I just think this is not one of those times, but rather an underreach, so to speak, in this particular situation.
