    ...Oh I understand that,...but looking at all of what we know to date, do you really thing that she'll ever be indicted?
    ...I don't...this whole thing has nothing to do with justice, and everything to do with money.

    This is pretty cut and dry.

    Is she potentially a hypocrite? No.

    Does this diminish what happened to her? No

    Was she wrong for what she did? Yes

    Should she pay for what she did? Yes

    At this point Is he just looking to get paid? Maybe but beside the point.

    Did he enjoy it? Probably

    Was he taken advantage of? Yes

    Am I jealous? Yes

    The law does that pretty well. 17 doesn't make her a pedo in my book but I got to side with El Prez on this one. She was wrong and should have waited a year.

    Pardon me. I see I'm going to have to get detailed with you.

    It's not a criminal matter, it's a PUBLICITY matter. I hope that clears things up.

    Any questions, any need for even more clarification?

    ...legally, yes....but it doesn't matter privately and if there is a trial the defense would argue otherwise...I agree that she was in the wrong but like I asked earlier, if there is a trial, and there won't be, what if she counter-sued and claim that he took advantage of her?...lawyers are good at that type of shit.

    Pedophilia applies to victims younger that he was. We went through this with the Alabama Senate candidate, Roy Moore, incident.

    I said legal, not criminal. The legal document was signed so as to avoid criminal liability had this story gotten out.

    Her story was suspect from the start. This just further destroys her credibility.

    It varies by state. In Washington a person can have consensual sex at 16 years old with a person of any age.

    It is in California, where this happened. Jesus fucking christ, I don't even get what you are trying to get at here.

    Where this happened.

    In California.

    If she had sex with a 17 year old.

    It was statutory rape.

    This is pretty cut and dry.

    Likely not. The victim will probably not cooperate with authorities, who are looking into the matter. The damage has been done though.
