Yes I know one child was 6. I was wondering what proportion were older. Also what proportion were female versus male?
I don't want to justify any of it but I think a 6 year old is more vulnerable than a 16 year old.
2. This is a plea bargain. This suggests the evidence the prosecutor had was tenuous or somehow in jeopardy. The "admissions" may (as many if not most do) have had admissibility issues.
Your psychic sense is cluttered with lawyer-like fanciful conclusions not in evidence.
3. At trial, the evidence may not have been admissible. This deal puts him on the predator list so he does have a lifetime stigma and does have places he can never live.
See answer to #2. Here your supposition stinks a much as #2.
4. I see this as indicative of the incompetence of prosecutorial work. Poor lawyering done by people who never should have been admitted to law school.
Typical shark approach. Eat your own, while bemoaning a system composed of scum utterly devoid of ethics, and indifference toward the innocent of our society.
Write a note to the authors.
This article is a keeper. I'll pull it out whenever I hear the progressive lefties telling me how the RC Church has to handle it's priests.
What is going on in North Carolina? Are all their DA's zonked out on drugs, or what?
First Nifong...now this.
Once again no linkage whatsoever between homos and pedophilia -- nope none. < / sarcasm >
Sane for Durham.
San Francisco values.
Along with New York, Illinois, Ohio, Pennsylvania.....
Asheville has been an aberration for over a decade now. Chapel Hill, NC seems to be another collective of those outside the norm. But Asheville has always seemed worse. Much worse. When I lived there, the homosexual population didn't worry me. I worked with a few and they seemed like nice folks. Not my cup of tea but I wasn't going to get in their face about it either. What bothered me was the New Agers. The tree huggers, the crystal crowd (they wore these bags of rocks around their necks), the tone crowd (the ones that think tones heal anything), the witches, and the hippies. Even had a hippie as a mayor for awhile. She showed up in public appearances wearing long denim skirts and tyedied shirts
I agree with an earlier poster who speculated that Judge Robert Lewis and DA Ron Moore are probably pedophiles or child pornographers, too. Maybe they're on the same "file-sharing" network as the defendant. This wrist-slap sentence sounds too much like a "wink and nod" arrangement.
Reed, who also worked as a columnist for the Asheville Citizen Times, often wrote in support of the "gay" agenda in the region.
Why am I not surprised..
It was also over flowing with lesbians making out at the table next to you and homosexual men grabbing each other in the street.
Whoa! No wonder they have bad weather.
Just because they claim to be catholic, doesn't mean they are.
As I've said many times before, it is IMPOSSIBLE to shame a liberal. They wear their deviancy as a badge of honor.
The only time a liberal is ashamed is when America does something right.
It has been my pleasure to share Andy's commitment to ensuring that compassion and democracy are at work across our community," wrote Beth Lazer, a Democrat who shared Unitarian Universalist church theologies with Reed and serves as the head of the local public access television, URTV.

CONSCIOUS MOVEMENT
A mind-body-spirit exercise show that helps you soothe away the stress of the day. Instead of watching crisis and scandal on the six oclock news, tune in, turn on and slow down with these mindful practices that enhance your life. Michael Clark and Accem Scott, teachers who have traveled to China to study the martial and healing arts, show you simple ways to relax, have fun and take care of your body at the same time. The core of the show is Tai Chi and Qigong (pronounced chee gung), Chinese exercises that combine gentle movement, meditation, self-massage and relaxed breathing. Tai Chi is a meditation in motion that brings balance and inner peace. Research has shown that it relieves stress, lowers blood pressure, increases immune function and improves flexibility. The producers are open to including all styles of conscious movement and invite teachers of Tai Chi, Qigong, yoga, dance, NIA, martial arts, drumming and related arts to contact Michael@HeavenAndEarthTaiChi.com to propose new 5-10 minute segments. Emphasis is on teaching viewers how to perform the exercises themselves. Monday-Thursday, 6 p.m. (www.HeavenAndEarthTaiChi.com; www.AccemScott.com)

Tune in Saturdays at 11 pm to URTV to see just what the Anti-Host has to say and do.
