Sentence is correct, but the article title sire does pussyfoot around the word rape.

[–] cavemeat@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago

Aw man, I didn't notice until you pointed it out. Why is news media always so reluctant to say rape even when the rapist has been convicted?

[–] Fisk400@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago

I think it's the same problem as youtube. Words like rape and pedophile lowers ad value on the article.

Harming a child like that is probably the worst thing one person can ever do to another.

Reading the article suggests the mother of the child was complicit? Am I reading that right? If so, she should absolutely be charged as well.
