Missing from the article is an account of what took place, what the defendent confessed to. With the wide definition of rape these days, this is pertinant information to the story.

Was it date rape? Did the defendent force entry into the house, then rape her? Was there a party going on?

She's under 18 and there was sex. Crime committed.

What difference does it make whether it was date rape, a party or forced home entry? He raped her. He should pay, not be given a slap on the wrist. I do not need the gory details about the rape to know that justice was NOT served here.

How are complaints handled about judges? Does anyone know the process?

It's certainly true that some people have ridiculously broad definitions of rape. However, if this only fit one of the more questionable definitions, I doubt the guy would have admitted to raping her. And I don't think the girl would have been as angry and traumatized as she seems to have been if it was just statutory rape.
