A few choice quotes<\/p>\n

What he was accused of is not only considered rape because she was underage, and not only because he gave her drugs and alcohol to set it up, but also because he did it while she was saying no and telling him to stop.<\/em><\/p>\n

There’s nothing ambiguous about that.<\/p>\n

That is an account of a rape.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

And<\/p>\n

This plea bargain was set up by the family and their attorneys because they saw no other way to protect this girl from a trial that would take away her anonymity and subject her to an endless media frenzy. They did not set up that plea bargain because they had any doubts about being able to prove her original charges. They set up the plea bargain because they saw a system that could not adequately protect this child, so they felt that they had no other choice but to compromise and settle for something less than justice<\/em>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Oh, sorry, I meant rapist.<\/p>\n
