UK Judge: "To be sexist about this, if Leah was a young man of 17 years and the complainant was a 13-year-old girl, the sentence would be almost inevitable as far as custody is concerned".

Just look at the language they use to describe her crimes versus men's. Seduced versus rape. Right there shows you prejudice. Other examples are everywhere in the article. Her sentencing, how they treated her, custody, and even the fucking judge showed preferential treatment to her. Just wow.

When she is sentenced after showing her Pussy Pass to the judge, you will, under UK law, be able to request her sentence to be reviewed. And the judges statement that he is clearly being sexist, will be a big help.

An almost apologetic statement from the judge.

Sadly he seems to be apologising to the person who has just been found guilty of three counts of sexual activity with a child.

I'll only cage you if I really, really, really have to. - The Judge, almost.

They still said "seduced" instead of raped. Good progress on part of the judge but does the website get it?

"a jury at Reading Crown Court rejected her version of events. "

Not caught lying, not false allegations, but her "version of events".

At least this UK judge acknowledged the sexist nature of UK rape/sexual assault laws and the legal system.

Feminist legal support experts will no doubt recommend that as a woman she and her child would be too traumatied by prison and should receive a non-custodial sentence. After all, she poses no risk of violence to women and girls (the people the law protects).

Well, we'll see how this goes, but i'll give the judge the point for at least acknowledging the double standard, and apparently mentioning it in front of the jury.

Although the jury deciding this stopped before she was 18...does that matter? A 17 year old raping a 13 year old isn't less of a crime. While i understand minors vs not is different, she is a grown woman now, not like shes repented her actions(Which incidentally, is a reason they sometimes give women lesser sentences, because they say sorry).
