:Oh crap

Ya thats totally ridiculous. I would of gotten about 500 years in jail if Id got nabbed for every underage bj I got before I turned 18... :disgust

It sucks, but precedence is precedence I guess...

Consent age is 14 in Canada.

That's pathetic. Poor guy.

Why the fuck was this even in court if the girl was willing in the first place? Who ratted?

i banged so many girls under 18 its not even funny.... good thing it was legal where it happend. suck for the biotch in the article linked to above.... if you dont like america and her polical climate.... LEAVE!

man that is truely messed up - they even changed the law after his case but refused his appeal!

ouch!!.....

It was videotaped... so undoubtedly copies were made until eventually a family member or friend of the family found out about it (probably at least).

Shit... another example of idiot justice in action in a retarded society..

Where were the parents?? What retarded prosecutor persued this action?? What justice system is so backward they elected to hear the case?? Why was a child protection agency not involved and this matter resolved by common sense??

The judge, prosecutor, law enforcement, parents all need thrown in jail for ten years.

Doubt ya can expect any better in that society - it's the same one where families gathered for picnics at lynching parties not long ago and where kids were held on death row till they reached "legal age" and then executed.

he got fucked a good one

He already was in Jail 2 years?.. WTF...

If he would have fucked her and knocked her up he would have "only" gotten 12 months.. damn....

Sebs

Observations .....

* Why was the girl not charged with "performing oral sex on a minor"

* Where was the public outrage? My entire high-school would have boycotted class until this was overturned.

* Where was the coverage by Georgia based CNN ???

How does the prosecutor sleep at night?

hes black and is in the south hes screwed

hah only in america ...

totally and utterly nuts -

labelled as a sex offender now, the kid's fucked before he even starts life

the laws have now changed, but he can't appeal, not even to have that lable removed

it's 12mo for underage sex, but 11yrs for a BJ - WTF???


Cant he appeal to the Supreme Court or something?
This is seriously a fucked up situation.

WOW, that is FUCKED.

When you're a teen, the idea is to get BJs and fuck other TEENS is it not? If he got a BJ from an adult, they could have arrested the adult for the same.

What a fucked situation.

This is why it's best to get your BJs in Asia.

Did I say that out loud?

I believe this is the story they profiled on 20/20 or dateline NBC, where the girls father found out about it, and he didn't like the idea of his (white) daughter performing a slobber job on a (black) guy. Because of her fathers racist views she originally said he forced her, and that got it into the courts eyes. But she later recanted, so they lifted rape charges but still stuck him with the minor rap.

L-Pink makes a good observation, why was the girl not charged? I believe that the consent age is 16 in Georgia, making him to be over consenting age.

Plus, the guy is like a straight A student, had scholarships and everything yanked away.

Justice?

the most fucked up shit ive read all day :(

I've read a lot about this case. How it came to light is that there was a girl at the party who had sex with some guy while drunk then woke up the next morning, realized she was in trouble for not going home and told her parents she had been raped. The catch is that her entire little escapade is on tape so all the rape charges were thrown out. This kid, however was on camera getting a blowjob and they decided to go after him. They offered him 5 years and he turned it down. The jury found him guilty because there was no way of fighting it, he admitted it, the girl said she even initiated it, but the law is the law. however, the jury didn't realize he would get 10 years and they were pretty pissed about it. The judge told them they could write a letter, but there was nothing more they could do.

The prosecutor, the girl involved, all the parents of the kids in the situation, pretty much everyone but the judge thinks it never should have made it to court and he should not be in prison, but the judge won't set aside the verdict. The kid just went to the Georgia state supreme court and they voted 4-3 not to hear the case. The 4 that voted against him are white, the 3 that voted for him are black, however they all agree that he probably shouldn't be in jail over this - they agree he shouldn't be there, but they refuse to do anything about it. He has a few steps left and eventually can petition the US supreme court, but for that he basically has to make it a federal civil rights case. In that same state recently there was a teacher that had sex with a student - a real case of child molestation - and she only got 90 days. This kids life is ruined for getting a blowjob at a party. It's sad.

The legal system is so fucked up! If every teenager who had been in a similar situation to the was put in jail...nearly everyone in the world would have a criminal record and we would need a hell of a lot more jails!

wow wow wow

no kidding, forget the iraqi war -- THIS IS INSANE!

The case got alot of news 2 years or so ago when it first happened. It's getting more news now because of the appeals.

It's some old law in Georgia that made sex ok for minors but oral sex was illegal.
Georgia even changed the law after this case so it wouldn't happen again. His case made the law change and they still refuse to do anything to help him. Completely fucked up.

In prison, and all he can think about while doing time is blowjobs. This kid is fucked.

much easier to just vote bush out - mind you that takes intelligence - something that's missing between your ears

no wonder why yall got waaay less crimes than usa.

that is fucked up

ridiculous

jesus,thats so stupid,i would end up in jail for life time then,lol

Why was the guy charged, convicted and sentenced and not the girl?

I told you once to get off the computer and go spank my girlfriend.

Now GO!

I heard about that. That's nuts.

Very sad story indeed. What kind of world do we live in where a 17 yr old gets 10 years for getting a blowjob? I am willing to bet some gun crimes don't carry as heavy a sentence.

as the world turns, another reason the US courts are fucked up

im speechless

well this is as ridicolous as burning witches 1000 years ago

I think in Poland a 60 year old guy can have regular sex with a 15 year old girl

and 15 & 17 well thats quite common, not?

holy cow...what a fucked up world we are creating:(

I read about this a couple days ago... Just fucking amazing...

Seriously, there are countries in Africa that have better legal systems than this.

Because he is black and she is white.

So, it was not illeagal to give 1 but it was
illegal to recive 1 :helpme

Sounds like some jealous mofo's made this
law up to eliminate a lot of competition &
have more dick suckers for them selves.

10 years for a BJ? Wow the legal system is turning into a joke..Poor kid. Im sure it will get reversed?

Some things in the US are just tottaly fucked up

damn that's really fucked up!

Sign the petition to help the kid out and spread it around

If he was older than her, sure that's a good thing.. But the same age? WTF?

It looks like they're trying to fix it.

You have some pretty strange conceptions of US law if you think the Bush presidency has anything to do with this.

You do realize this is a state issue, and not federal . . . right?

Postive idea Tony :thumbsup

Interesting to note..

Only my :2 cents: - nobody should be in a jail cell in this case - Genarlow has spent almost 2 years in one now - bad, bad news and certainly not "justice".

He is just unlucky guy :(

It's funny how she can be a slut and that's ok, but god forbid you get something from the slut.

God had a very bad day when he created America... A very very bad day.

Everything is sooooooo fucked in your country!!! Just so fucked!

canada rocks i love it
