Serge023? The female victim was actually 16 years old. The 16-year-old creep who raped her videotaped the assault. However, there was another similar case in which a 16-year-old boy raped a 12-year-old girl. The judge in that matter also coddled him. Strangely enough, the criminal justice system doesn't seem to punish underage boys here in the United States of America like it should whenever they rape an adolescent girl. I've never been able to understand that school of thought among these judges. However, you're right. Judges who engage in this dereliction of duties need to be impeached from the bench.
