Look, the kid got 2 years. Could it be because he was in LA? Yes. Do I GAF? No.

The justice system played out. As blackhelicopterpilot stated pages ago, if you don't want to be at the mercy of the justice system, then don't do things that can get you in trouble.

And certainly don't do any of those things in states where you're already hated. Kid's a fricking idiot.

Absolutely false. DAs throw out marginal cases all the time, even many "slam dunks", because the marginal conviction isnt worth the time and effort.

Actions of similar severity as the one in this case are are punished by probation and community service or blown off altogether everyday. There are several major reasons why this one was not, and none of them have to do with justice.

The guy is 33, which actually kinda makes it more embarrassing.

It also wasn't an LSU fan teabagging an Alabama fan, but several posters have tried to suggest that would be treated differently.

So the prosecutor took the case because he hates Alabama. Good for him.

On a side note from the Downing guy.

As stated, there was video evidence, a ton of publicity and the Lsu kid admitted to being drunk. Has the DA issued a warrant or citation for public drunkenness yet?

If you excise that portion of what I said without regard to my case specific paragraph before, I might agree with you. This wasn't a marginal case. It came gift-wrapped with the "murder weapon," if you will. Once there was video, you could go to trial, put the police officer on the stand, have him identify the original video. Play it, rest and you would get a conviction with nothing more.

There was absolutely nothing marginal about this case which is why they absolutely blew him away to the point where he agreed to two years. Come on, guy.

ETA: No action of a similar character where there is clear video evidence gets a better deal than this. Most sexual assault cases (in addition to their under reporting) are really tough to prove and involve swearing matches. That gives would be defendants leverage. Here, we have a video. Nothing else could have occurred in this case but a plea or a conviction.

If he spends 6-9 months in the general prison population he may not live to be free again.
But if you do the crime.....

I don't disagree with anything you just said.. It is my opinion that 2 years is a little harsh, in comparison to other punishments handed down every day. I realize that is not how it works.

Calling teabagging "sexual assault" is like calling sex with a drunk girl "rape". In a technical legal sense perhaps, but it is incredibly misleading and serves only to further an agenda.

This guy isnt a sexual predator.

Don't even know or care. Hopefully not. That would be even sweeter. This thread has just gone on too far.
