ESPN Story
OK I know it is a long read, but you can get the main part of the story from the top 1/3 of it.
Basically, this all star HS athlete got oral sex from a 15 yr old when he was 17 and they charged him with child molestation and his life was taken away from him.
He admits that he smoked weed and drank alcohol and by his own admission was a "bad kid" but come on, 10 years for getting a BJ from a classmate??? They took the law and completely used it for something it was never written for. This guy is no model student, but he is NO WAY a pedophile.
Georgia state law at the time was that Oral Sex from a minor is a FELONY, while intercourse with a minor is a MISDEMEANOR. WTF?
Great read for those with the time to read it.
