Sounds like the case could still be re-opened
There is never any excuse for an adult to have sex with a minor and it is never forgivable. Getting them drunk and giving them drugs should make the punishment 5x worse at a minimum.
The problem is there are feral females everywhere these days, raised to be whores by absent parents and a corrupting culture. Before we pulled our kids from public school, I saw 13 year old girls who were indistinguishable from 18 year olds, and some had tattoos and wore slutty clothing. We couldn't get our daughter out of there fast enough.
If the guy is telling the truth (who knows if he is?) the girls willingly got drunk with him and apparently led him to believe they were older than they were. In many states 15 or 16 is the legal age for consent to sex. Once they were pulled over, they accused the guy of getting them drunk and raping them and then admitted their real age. They may be telling the truth, but they also may not be. Girls aren’t all sweet and innocent, you know. I’ve never pulled any crap like that with a guy, but I’ve known plenty of girls who have or who say they have. Only this guy and those girls really know what happened - and God.
Him getting angry and going off and selling drugs is a stupid way to handle life’s disappointments, but it isn’t atypical for a kid his age either. It doesn’t make it right, no, but we shouldn’t be too quick to judge when none of us have the facts. I pray that whoever is truly guilty gets found out. But that may not happen on earth - that may have to wait until the Day of Judgment.
