"What the prosecutor and judge seem to have done, and what you seek to do, is punish the defendant for a crime of which he was acquitted."

Umm....what? You think he was acquitted and they just jailed him anyway? He was found not guilty on rape, guilty on aggravated child molestation.

Let's make it real simple: the age of consent to have sex in Georgia is 16. He was 17. He could consent to have sex. She was 15. She could not consent to have sex. She may have consented, but under Georgia law she wasn't old enough to make that decision. It's like when a 25 year old has sex with a 12 year old and says "well, he/she said yes!".

It's amazing the ignorance of some on this thread. Some are saying the girl was 17. She was not 17, she was 15. Some are saying she consented. She probably did, but that's irrelevant to what Wilson was convicted on. People need to read and know what they're talking about before posting.

as I recall the original story, this girl also was thought to be a "slow" but that's just what I remember.....

but no matter, some freepers still like to see 15 yros get it from the big time football player.....
