Guess we would have to cut them in half and count the rings.

Yes, I can see why you would be incredulous about such a situation. But girls today are not what they were when we were young. It’s very sad.

If you are old like this woman, you remember what “unmentionables” are. I can remember wanting to die of shame one day around 1962 because I accidentally showed part of my upper unmentionable. Now doing so is part of the costume with quite a few of them.

a girl doesn’t hang desperately onto a sink to stop being kidnapped and dragged into a bathroom stall if she wants to have sex in a stall...

a girl doesn’t scream loud enough for students outside of an unused corridor to hear her if she is consenting to sex...or at least what is happening/being done to her...

I want to see a pic of the other rapist...

what girl would want to kiss the weirdo ???

Maybe the other one is cutish and came onto her and she was flattered by his attention...what words were in that text she is suppose to have sent ???

A 14 year old does not have the personal authority to consent to consensual sex. 14 will get you 25.

Old girl here.

Yeah, it is very sad what we have come to in this day and age.

Yeah, I wonder how many were at the meeting that decided that the black female had to be sacrificed for the sake of the illegal invaders.

I can remember when pads were behind the counter of the chemist shop and wrapped in brown paper...

Rock Creek Park Trail extends all the way up to Rockville and RHS has lots of woods and trails behind it to do a lot of nefarious things. I ain’t buying this story.

Read the law.

Rape in the First Degree.

Sexual Offense in the Fourth Degree

These are links to the actual law of the State of Maryland, provided to you at taxpayer expense by the Maryland General Assembly. Read them carefully. Learn them. Then you will be prepared to discuss this case from a position of knowledge rather than ignorance.

Carry on ...

Are the suspects over 18?

Also, there can be mitigating circumstances. I’ve known guys that were completly clueless about sex by 18 and girls that were dangerous at 13.

If she was texting suggestive pictures of herself to boys in the throes of puberty, if I were the judge, I’d find them not guilty and consider her the “older” person, even if not chronologically. Now, if they were not public school students, I retract that remark.

I attended public school. Girls can be dangerous. Seriously. The reason there are more men in prison than women is that men and women tend to act badly in different ways. When men act badly, they do things that land them in prison. When women act badly, they ruin people’s lives. The latter usually does not involve incarceration.

(3) if the victim is under the age of 14 years, and the person performing the act is at least 4 years older than the victim.

(b) A person 18 years of age or older may not violate subsection (a)(1) or (2) of this section involving a child under the age of 13 years.


This may be key.

Typical defense lie.


The good news is that it is easy enough to find out. A simple subpoena of phone data is all that is required to get to the bottom of this. If they are telling the truth, it looks like there is no case based on what I read in post 8.

Who the Hell consents to have sex in a bathroom stall? Strains credulity.


Sadly, it’s a LOT more common than you think. It all depends on your culture and upbringing. Studio 54 actually comes to mind.

I’ve played in a few bar bands in the past, which exposed me to some rather troubling aspects of the human condition. The phrase “Pulling a train” in the men’s room comes to mind.

The bottom line is that, depending on this girl’s upbringing and that of the boys involved, this does not strain credibility at all.

It’s also possible that they are telling the truth. Time and evidence will clear this up nicely. I don’t know which side to believe, based on what I’ve seen in the press. But we’ve seen cases like this where the boys were the wicked ones, and where the girl is the wicked one, setting them up.

And everything in between.

i.e. I have no opinion on this until a verdict is reached.

I'm not clear on what Subsection (b) means ... but the victim is 14, so I think it's not relevant. See also the Sexual Offense in the Fourth Degree ... The victim is supposed to be 14, and the accused are supposedly 17 & 18. However, this crime is "only" a misdemeanor. I think the case will revolve around the extreme violence alleged by the police. Based on my limited knowledge of the facts, and my reading of the law, I would charge the defendants with multiple counts of:

1) Rape in the First Degree, due to the violence.

2) Sexual Offense in the First Degree, due to the violence

3) Sexual Offense in the Fourth Degree, due to the age difference.

4) Assault? Battery? Kidnapping? Malicious wounding? Seriously: throw the book at them.

Check the links ... "Rape" and "Sexual Offense" are not the same crime.

How many 14 yearolds consent to anal sex? You are being ridiculous.

Beneath her.

Hillary is who you bring in when the guy is in his forties and the victim was a twelve year old virgin.

These do not sound like evidence of consensual sex, and agreeing to sex with one person, isn’t agreeing to sex with his friend too.


The original Straw Dogs comes to mind...

If what you posted is true about this case, I retract my comments about her being responsible. Even if she DID post the pictures, that doesn’t justify what happened. It’s the “you can’t rape a prostitute” type of defense.
