Zach Anderson will be removed from the sex offender registry. (19 year old convicted of having sex with 14 year old who told him she was 17.)

The state senator who claimed he "should have been more careful" because of his ripe old age of 19 is quite an idiot.

Too bad his attorney didn't know the "Hillary Defense" and tell everyone that there was no "intent."

It's sad that this is considered a fucking accomplishment. Punished a young man because a girl LIED about her age and had perfectly consensual sex.

As far as I can see there was only one sex offender in this case & it wasn't this poor sap, he's the victim in this. No the sex offender is the person who knowingly committed a crime.

I've been saying for years that there should be sex through fraud laws, in which one can be charged if one has sex under false pretenses of what one is (not to be mistaken for WHO one is).

So for example one could be charged with sex under false pretenses for having sex while underage, if one has lied about being of age. Same goes for people with HIV or AIDS having sex without disclosing, or trans-people not disclosing their status.

It wouldn't cover a guy lying to a woman by telling her he's a secret agent, because that would be WHO he is, not WHAT he is.

Of course if I had my way Mens Rea would be reinserted as an element in determining guilt for all cases of stat rape.

Why the fuck wasn't she on the sex offender registry for lying about her age, ey?

Still gives him a curfew and tells him what he can and cant do with a computer and the like? Even though its established she lied about her age? Why isnt this thing dismissed?

Until we put murderers (including "infanticide") and other actually violent people on the registry and modify their passports accordingly, we ought to dismantle the registry, and shame it as the illegal scarlet letter that it is.
