Scares the _________ outta me too. I would surmise, easily, that 80% of all HS kids are sexually active by the time the graduate.I don't think he was responsible in his actions that night, but I think 10 years is a too high of a price to pay for the irresponsibility.
My point exactly
What scares me in all of this is how young they are starting today. I mean it's way out of control as far as i'm concerned.
Yeah imagine my reaction when I heard the school had a daycare with practically fuill usage for teen mothers when I arrived there.
In HS, all the teenage mothers and their kids went to a little house on campus near the baseball and football fields to learn "mom skills" and other things. Our coaches used to tell us the last thing we should want is to have a kid that spends his day in that building. -

i had the privilege of coaching this young man a couple years ago that was an unbelievable athlete. very humble. quiet. but more talent in his big toe than most teams have. problem is, about a year ago his dad passed away and his uncles, mom, family are letting go of him. it kills me cause i can see this kid going nowhere with his life now. it is truly a waste. seems like his family would be able to see this and stay on his butt like his dad did. this man was at every practice and game. even when he was sick. was always there to make sure his son was doing right. now i can see this kid blowing that. owell. all i can do is try to talk to him a little when i see him, and hope something sinks in.

While this is good for Genarlow, his life has already been destroyed. No chance of attending college and playing, plus a reputation that will follow him. Hopefully he can pick up his life and get on with it.

Looks like Genarlow Wilson may be in prison a bit longer. The GA Attorney General has said the family "judge shopped" until they found a judge who was willing to order his release. He is in favor of the release, but feels it was gone about the wrong way. He feels it will start a bad precedent for sex offenders in prison. The attorney general feels it will start offenders to begin "judge shopping". He is in favor - for the current time - of releasing him on bond until it is resolved. This is not sitting well with Wilson's family. They want him released with a full pardon - or nothing. The pardon issue is also not going over well with the attorney general.

I agree that even if this innocent man gets released, his life is pretty much over...
He got called a child molestor while being a child himself...
the law changed right after his trial and due to his trial to make sure people in the same shoes as him dont get the same type of harsh punishment...
The DA needs to resolve this ASAP...
This is one of the VERY RARE cases where i hope the person actually does get a book deal and makes millions, just to spite the system a little...
