Yet another indication of how broken our system is, and how socially engineered politics and laws can make a perpetrator a "victim", and a victim an even bigger victim.
Just based on the number and types of apologist replies I've seen (mostly from boorish, simple-minded males) on this board and elsewhere, when there is a story like this where the perpetrator is a female, I continue to believe that cases like this will increase in the future, not decrease. I don't see any doubt that taking advantage of people who are (legally) too young to know the consequences of their actions is wrong. And I don't care if the victim is male, female or somewhere in between. My belief is that "one rule for everyone" is the best way to protect all of those who are unable to protect themselves from predators. Those who want conditional laws are part of the problem, IMO.
BTW, had the victim been a female, to the best of my knowledge, it would have been illegal to publish her name in the press.
