A mother in Montana is outraged that a high school teacher who admitted raping her 14-year-old daughter received only a month in prison, while her daughter took her own life.
"I think this sentence is a joke, a travesty," the mother, Auliea Hanlon, told CNN on Tuesday night, a day after the sentencing.
"People will lose faith in our justice system. I have."
Hanlon said she was particularly upset that the sentencing judge, G. Todd Baugh, said her daughter "seemed older than her chronological age" and was "as much in control of the situation" as the teacher.
Baugh later acknowledged to CNN that "that was not the best choice of words."

Yeah oh, and--

As the case wound its way through the legal system, the girl committed suicide. She was a few weeks shy of her 17th birthday.

How the...what the....Dafuq did I just read?! He's a teacher, he has control over her, in what world does her maturity play into coercion like that?

Colony drop on Montana. Right the fuck now.

Colony drop on Montana. Right the fuck now.

I think a bombardment with phaser cannons should do the trick. Let's just glass the region.



...Seriously though, I am apalled. Rambold violated the original agreement he had gotten in exhange of charges being dropped and then they still give him just a slap on the wrists.

Well, this is infuriating.

.....RAPE! AHHHHH!

Ironbite-AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

If it's any comfort to contemplate; wait and see the lynch mob outside Yellowstone Country Jail on his release day. And even if no lynch mob materializes, Rambold is not long for this earth. Somebody will get to him.

Oh Montana...don't act this way. :/

You know, I've been up to that area of the country before. There's a lot of wilderness area where humans haven't visited in years, if ever. Seems like it'd be real easy to make something disappear in to those wilds. Last I checked, Montana is about as much cowboy country as Oklahoma is, an 'round these parts at least, we aren't afraid of breaking out some old-school justice like they did back in the day.

Also, ain't there a lot of moose and bears up there? Wonder if we can tranq' a moose long enough to tie this guy to it's antlers and then let it run free in the woods.

Go right ahead. I'm not even going to pretend I consider this wrong, and as far as I am concerned, anyone on this rapist's side can join him.

This meant that all charges against Rambold would be dismissed if he completed a sex offender treatment program and met other requirements. One of them was to have no contact with children.

Rambold admitted to one of the rape charges. But Rambold fell short of the agreement.
"He had some contacts with nieces and nephews in a family setting and other adults were present," Baugh said.

He also had relationships with women that he didn't tell his counselors about.

"That is a violation from his deferred prosecution so he was dropped from the plan."

They only gave this monster DAYS in prison? Life! No fuck that death is the correct course of action since he has resisted treatment!

[PosthumanHeresy]

I agree with TIM.

Say, does Montana have a Stand Your Ground-type law?  Everyone with access to this story now has reasonable cause to believe that this fucker will, if given the chance, rape them or their children.  The outcome, I'm sure, is something anyone with a half-functioning brain could guess, and not a fuck will be given on that day.

Even if they do, this guy's white, so it wouldn't really apply.

she was 17, not 14... and she committed suicide 3 years later that may or may not be directly related to the CONSENSUAL sex she had with the teacher! There was NO rape and NO murder!

Apparently, teenagers in this country are treated as stupid and immature and don't know want they want or how how life works, unless it's sex with someone who's over three times their own age and in a position of authority.  In that case they knew exactly what they were doing and need to be treated like they were adults and take full responsibility.  The actual adults in the situation are apparently powerless to resist these little seducing harlots and suffer enough simply by being outcasted and losing everything.
