OT - former girls basketball coach pleads not guilty

[JRutledge]

I happen to agree with Snaq on this. I think putting everyone on a sex offender's list is not the answer. And the age of 22 and 17 is not that far apart if there was some level of a mutual relationship. Now you can make the case this is not a mutual relationship, but a 17 year old is only a year away from 18 and can drive and soon vote. I guess I have a problem if an 18 year old were to get involved with a 17 year old and somehow they were accused of an inappropriate relationship and then accused of a crime.

I think a lot of parents do not want to face that your 17 year old is not like a 17 year old was when you were a kid. This is certainly not always a black and white situation that is for sure.

Peace
