I'm still not quite up to speed on this. Is it an matter of her age, or that the pictures are exceptionally nasty, or is it specifically illegal if she's a college student, but not illegal if she's a stripper, or what.
I think that the incident occurred on campus when he had been barred, showing explicit images without consent, then demanding that the girl take him to her room. Understandably, her mother is out for blood.
It sounds like one of those things that would fit into the category of sexual harassment if it happened in a workplace or something like that, but I don’t really think it should be a criminal prosecution. Walking up to a random person on a street and flashing out a porno magazine is bad manners and a little odd but it shouldn’t be illegal, as long as the target is an adult and as long as that person isn’t harmed in any way. If he did it to a coworker though it would be a civil offense and grounds for firing for sexual harassment...but that would require Alvin Greene to have a job.
I wonder that , myself. Bad manners, sexual harassment...but how is this a crime, or a serious one at that.
The girl and her mother were on TV and gave an interview. She was maybe 19 when he showed her some porn on a library computer and then asked if he could go to her room. She was a dumpy white chick and seemed sort of slow. She told her mother about it and her mother had her file a police report. They just seem like a couple of petty little women milking the event of whatever attention they could get. I guess this surpasses all their expectations. Certain reeks of Jim Crow and all that. What was alleged was boorish, rude, crude and ungentlemanly, but nothing that, imho, should be a crime.
