[QUOTE="birthday cat, post: 977800, member: 9738"] Neo - I agree with some of the things you say about the "manosphere kook aid" and I've got a history on this forum of pointing things like that out but you are making statements that aren't consistent with what is being reported. He didn't have sex with her. It was digital penetration. He was convicted of sexual assault, not rape, even though the media spins things into him being convicted of rape. I don't think the sentence isn't light. He has to register as a sex offender which lasts for his entire life. He was very remorseful and said things such as "I can never forgive myself" although the media tries to spin that also. He has no prior convictions or problems in his past that suggest this night was anything more than a young kid who was so wasted that he couldn't think. The media tries to make it look like he only got six months in jail for rape. The truth is that he got six months in jail and a lifetime of being a registered sex offender for sexual assault. There is a difference. Also, the girl and her letter are disgusting. Perhaps the judge was smart enough to take the girl's character into consideration. I know a lot of people won't get this but that letter says a lot about the girl's attitude and the judge may have more of an understanding of this attitude since he witnessed the trial. People need to cut this kid some slack for being young, foolish and wasted drunk or they need to talk about what a drunken cheating skank the girl is. The double standard of expecting him to behave as if he was sober but treating the girl as if she did nothing wrong because she was drunk is bullshit. I'm still undecided on what I think happened because there are conflicting stories. Does anyone know if the bicyclists testified in the trial? Turner running away from them means a lot less if he did this after stumbling away from the girl and after the guys confronted him. The other stories I've read make it seem like those guys saw him and he jumped up off the girl and started running. [/QUOTE]
