This actually enrages me
like, they likely didn't know and he just ruined their lives
plus one is 18, are they really gonna charge him for 3 years difference (now 2)? The law definitely needs done reworking. And this is why I could never be a lawyer, the fact that they had to advocate for a guy who wasn't to blame going to jail and likely having "sex offender" attached to his name for the rest of his life is shameful.
