He's lucky this wasn't in Georgia or he'd be facing 10 years in the slammer. Either way, jesus H christ ...
I was just about to post this...I don't think Les will sign him. That would constitute sexual assault on a minor too IMO, if convicted...he may be wearing a orange jumpsuit instead of purple and gold this time next year.
Maybe he thought she gave a silent commit, but in the end it just turned out to be a soft verbal, not a commitable offer. (I realize a 14 year old girl was violated here, not trying to make light of that ... just can't pass up the low hanging fruit.)
