RAPE! She helped him RAPE!
GET THE FUCKING HEADLINES CORRECT.
A 12 year old did not "get pregnant by grown man." She was FUCKING RAPED!
Holy shit, it implies the issue here was the getting pregnant. There's a little something that occurred before that and it was called RAPE!
I would also point out the human trafficking by pimping out your own child. Really need some sort of extra charge for that one, something about abusing a position of power.
There actually is in a lot of states. There is a specific charge for, "sexual abuse on a child from a position of trust", that is specifically used for parental guardians. The charge is treated as a higher class than just sexual abuse on a child by itself, and I think the minimum is around 10 years for it. It should probably be higher considering people go to prison longer for drug charges, but at least its something.
I learned this from watching too many true crime documentaries.
Yes, that was what I was eluding too as well. Most nations have some form of tack on sentence for abuse of a trusted position.
Alluding to
eluding
Ah yes, I was indeed confusing away from toward.
I'm not sure whether the rape or the non-consentual pregnancy and forced birth is worse...
Then there's the fate of the child born to the kind of monster that would pay to do this...
I read this article about an underage marriage, and while it explains how they get to that point in a more specific way, these are still men who rape children incapable of consent. No matter how you slice it, it's rape.
How do you have an entire fucking family show up for a baby shower and not one god damn person says a thing? How do these people show up at a hospital with a pregnant 12 year old thinking this was going to have a happy ending?
That's some George Costanza shit right there. "Was I not supposed to impregnate 12 year olds? Because I had no idea. I mean if someone had told me that was frowned on around here, I never would've done it."
It’s god’s plan!

REPUBLICANS is how
generational dysfunction. this type of thing is normal for them. i bet this kind of thing has happened in their family before.
Please do not compare funny man George to this piece of human garbage.
This is obviously disturbing and disgusting. But, are we not going to talk about those eyebrows?
Juggalette
Holy shit those are eyebrows.
I thought a crow was flying between me and my monitor.
I think we can talk about both. Why do they look like punctuation marks somehow?
Disturbing and disgusting.
poverty man
Is that some sort of hideous super hero?
How is this going to work out legally for the girl and her baby? The girl isn’t even old enough to have her own bank account. Is she old enough to make parental decisions for her baby? Will the state take the baby away from her?
As terrible as it is, I wonder if that might be for the best.
The State will take the baby. I guess there are no good outcomes here. I expect both children are currently in care.
Yeah, a “good” outcome is unrealistic. I think the best we can hope for is the “least terrible” outcome.
The good outcome would have been someone shooting the mother and the rapist before they traumatized the poor kid.
I feel terrible for agreeing with this, but it's true. This poor little girl literally would have been less traumatized if someone just killed her parents.
From the many times I've seen this type of incident on the news (unfortunately), they usually place the baby in the care of relatives first if possible.
states do prefer kinship adoption as a first option.
Give her the book for what she did to her child
And add time for those eyebrows
God I didn't even notice the eyebrows...
The girl's father was in prison for a separate sex crime and has no involvement in his daughter's life, Tulsa Police told FOX23 News at the time of the incident.
so i guess that explains why she was comfortable with allowing an adult to rape her daughter. these are the kind of men she dates.
NOAH
GET THE MOTHER FUCKING BOAT
"one of the most bizarre sex crimes in recent Tulsa history" is a pretty specific statement and makes that city sound terrible.
I don’t have much to say other than “yikes, poor girl” and “dem eyebrows.”
I wonder if the two adults are also related, their eyebrows look too alike for them not to be.
Looks like they grabbed a shapie, and not a normal sized one but one of the gigantic oversized sharpies, a protractor, and a geometry book.
ROLL.....SOONERS?
No one would have been in trouble if they were married. In Oklahoma, there are no age restrictions for marriage. An adult can marry a toddler if they want. Child marriage is a long-standing conservative tradition, unfortunately.
