[liberty or death]

If he raped a child the answer is a great big YES.
How would you like to have someone you love and trust bend you over and sodomize you.Try and comprehend the fear,pain,shame and utter horror that must be for a child.

I said guilty of what they SAY he did. As far as I know, there have never been accusations of sodomy. Maybe you should get your facts in order before you speak. The guy at the press conference even stressed that it wasn't even oral sex. He's being chared with lewd and lacivious (sp?) behavior. If anyone has proof that he's being charged with something else, please post it here.

I just looked up the charge. This is what 288 (a) states:

288. (a) Any person who willfully and lewdly commits any lewd or lascivious act, including any of the acts constituting other crimes provided for in Part 1, upon or with the body, or any part or member thereof, of a child who is under the age of 14 years, with the intent of arousing, appealing to, or gratifying the lust, passions, or sexual desires of that person or the child, is guilty of a felony and shall be punished by imprisonment in the state prison for three, six, or eight years.

As far as I can tell, it's a pretty narrow charge.
