Comment: I think that since by law this young girl was unable to give consent, she should not be able to make a case for the accused. The case was brought by the authorities, and they should be the ones making the decision of whether the case should continue or not. I think the magistrate disobeyed the law by allowing him to go free. The law is the law,u can't consent u can't enter a defense. They should lock up the girl and her parents for not reporting the crime and send the child to foster care |
