ONE THING THAT’S WRONG WITH ‘JESSICA’S LAWS’
It would increase already stringent penalties for some first-time child sex offenders. I’m not an advocate for sex offenders by any means, but I do know that in Texas a 17-year-old high schooler who has sex with his 14-year-old girlfriend is a sex offender for life the second she tells the cops. And there’s no defense available to him in court.
FrontBurner® has been called the best blog in town (recently, and repeatedly), a snarky celebration of ignorance, and a daily conversation about Dallas among the editors of D Magazine.
