    Rape is rape and rarely about 'just getting laid'; it is an act of rage/hate/anger.

    thats always the stupid mantra they preach. you think sandusky was about anger and rape?

    "Sex act" connotes some level of consent. Rape is assault with an unusual weapon.

    Big difference between entering someone's house and holding a knife to them vs. coming home from the bar with a babe, things getting hot and after a guy gets it in she changes her mind but he insists. Wouldn't you agree?

    If the grand jury reduces your crime to basically a ticket, there is absolutely no way in hell there was enough evidence to convict in a court of law. The standards in a grand jury are much, much less stringent than "beyond a reasonable doubt".

    DNA tests were found to be inconclusive.

    JJ pled guilty to the misdemeanor so the BRPD could save face and in return he was probably promised that matter would be dropped altogether. Grand Jury cases are kept confidential, so we'll never really know.

    All it takes is an ***hole or two with a plausible story to have someone get arrested...

    JJ hasn't pled guilty to anything. The Grand Jury found probable cause for a misdemeanor. So far, that's it.

    Simple rape has a maximum sentence of 25 years. This is a serious charge, and not equivalent to a ticket. He is not charged with forcible or aggravated rape.

    This is what I meant, perhaps I wasn't clear.
    as in intent to rape versus a 'change of mind'.
