U.K. judge slammed for lenient sentence of a child rapist.
  • RE:"The consent issue is clearly not settled" -- NOT

    Not sure which anonymous you are referring to, but legally it is obvious no consent can be given by a 10 year old, which was actually in my original post. I was addressing the gray area where a man who presumed a woman was of legal age, was given verbal consent. My question related to whether the girl had given verbal consent to the act, not whether it was legal. Are you advocating all women that have slept with a minor should be immediately imprisoned for the full sentence ?
