He was in prison for a false rape charge and today he was sentenced to ten years in prison for child molestation. If these are facts not in dispute, what is the problem here?
Yes, it's a bad thing that a false charge of rape was made. That doesn't erase his having sex with an underage girl.

(I'm pro-choice. I just think the "choice" should be made *before* having sex.)

He was 18, she was 15, the sex was consensual. Ten years in prison for that? But this hardly belongs in breaking news...

She was three months away from turning sixteen then it woul have been legal. I think ten years for teen sex is a bit harsh.

That doesn't erase his having sex with an underage girl. Dixon was convicted of the charge for having consensual sex with a 15-year-old classmate at his Rome high school.
Should we just throw all male high school students in prison then? They're all felons under this ridiculous ruling. Jeez Louise!
