Campus rapist given lenient sentence to avoid "severe impact on him"

What a personal disaster.

Been in this country for 40+ years (since birth). I should have known that but did not. You normally don’t hear about “botched” sentencing and it’s sad there’s no recourse.

Age - old enough to know not to put his dick in someone who hasn’t said that she wants him to.
“Mentally fubar” - there are some who would say that this is a prerequisite to do this in the first place. However, he was together enough to be at college. Unless you’re pleading affluenza?

No excuse; just a self - entitled prick deciding to take what he wanted.

《bar-room psychology》Sounds like standard sociopathy from here. Only seeing how he has been inconvenienced. 《/bar-room psychology》

And again no. There may be less culpability attached to someone whose drink has been spiked. There is not with someone who chose to get intoxicated. Especially when their subsequent behaviour suggests that their state of intoxication did not lead them to do anything that they would not have done sober.

Sorry for some reason this wasn’t set to auto-close after 5 days like every other Boing topic…
