Letters to the editor

Predator got off easy

To the editor:

Re: Man gets 9 months for sex with girl, 13

I am completely outraged that this man gets nine months jail time and 18 months probation.

I find it really hard to believe that a man of 37 years of age couldn’t tell this girl was 13.

I'm sorry but in order to post a online add for any kind of dating or sexual encounter you need to be 18 years old. I know that young girls are looking older and older all the time but really can a 13 year old really pass for a 18 year old?

I think not.

Secondly where was the parents supervision of this child's online activities?

Online predators are not something we are just hearing of now.

This is disgusting in every way, even the way the justice system handled it.
