Teenager Accused of Rape Deserves Leniency Because He’s From a ‘Good Family,’ Judge Says - The New York Times

[serge023]

The family court judge also said the victim should have been told that pressing charges would destroy the accused’s life.

Oh like the 12 year old girl that's been raped doesn't have her life destroyed.This is insane but happening more and more in the USA. Judges that make their own rules and simply change laws and rules temporary in the favor of other people. This is corruption of the justice system, which is a base for the democracy. Judges like this should be fired.
