She was 13. He was 18. Held against her will.
Apparently the judge didn’t have the facts.
I’m not sure what the rules are.
If the law says a man paying child support must be given access, the judge has no leeway.
If I were a judge, I’d be in contact with the leadership of my state legislature to get that fixed.
A thirteen year old rape victim should not be forced into contact with, or relinquish control of her child to the rapist. I would continue to object as long as the child was a minor, and then would only agree if the child wanted it.
By that time the child should know the man wasn’t worth knowing.
Then again, sometimes men do change. I have very strong feelings about this topic.
Rape victims should get every consideration possible.
It may take them years to get over it, if ever. Then to be forced into contact with the guy...
No.
Thank you for the link.
