Um, don't you think they did a physical examination of the baby before charges were brought? Why would any man willingly admit guilt to this knowing what happens to them in prison?

So all we have is her testimony, when she could have immediately taken the baby to the hospital,verify it,collect forensic evidence etc. How do we know she didn't fabricate the whole story. The man raped a two month old child. The damage he did to a two month old vagina is more than like likely permanent and most certainly would still be evident after three weeks.

Read my post 18.Not everyone that accepts a plea bargain is necessarily guilty. Has it occurred to you that he might just think probation is better than 6-10 years if found guilty? I have never reasoned why plea bargains give such lighter punishment over a jury conviction. It just makes it too convenient to cop a plea and walk rather than prove a case and incarcerate the guy.

Just think of all the jobs...That's what it's all about - the scavengers have to eat, too.
Not everyone can be a parasite - the gubmint needs to provide opportunities for scavengers and predators, as well.
It's called Ecological Management.

The article says it took her three weeks to call police.Not much evidence left after that amount of time.

...Lehman may receive just six months of jail time... Plenty of time for justice to be served from the inside.
There are people on the inside that don't take kindly to this kind of perp. This fresh fish will be getting married soon after he gets inside. I hope it's a long wedding night.

I imagine there is plenty of evidence to warrant charges in a two month old infant. No man I know would willingly admit to these charges if they were not guilty. Even with a plea bargain, six months would be a LONG time to survive the prison justice system for baby rapers.
To: Motherbear
I don't buy that she was so influenced by shock and hormonal changes that she allowed this guy three weeks to breathe good air.
Sorry if I sound cruel, here, but most mothers would claw your eyeballs out if you touch their child, especially new mothers.

Since you posted this article, could you get some follow up from the reporter that authered this story? Like if there was any forensic or physical evidence.All to often stories are posted without enough facts to go with it. The main question in my mind is, is the womans testimony the only evidence.

He did plead guilty, after all. He probably confessed.
And believe me, there would be "forensic evidence" even three weeks later.

This is just one more sign of the exceedingly wicked times we live in. JUSTICE will be served when the KING returns, and the wicked will be punished. There is no escape.

If the story is true she is as guilty as he is.
I agree, if I walked in on that and it wasn't even my child I would still have killed that animal where he stood. That is the only thing I could have lived with afterword. The child is forever scarred.

Not with a two-month old baby.
