There seems to be this stupid FR game of declaring people in the news as guilty or not depending on whether they’re lookers. It’s like asking Laz if he would hit it.

It originated in threads about female high school teachers accused of having sex with underage male students. If the teacher was attractive, the FR jury concluded that she probably had not forced the boy to do anything he didn't want to do, so... Jury nullification.

It makes no sense in cases like this.
