Teen Convicted of Oral Sex Freed by High Court, Oh yea this is America
I recall watching Genarlow Wilson on a popular TV news magazine. Wilson a black teen was convicted of having consensual oral sex with a 15-year-old girl when he was 17, still a legal juvenal.
Wilson was sentenced to a 10 year prison term, which the Georgia Supreme Court ruled on a 4-3 vote that his 10-year sentence amounted to “cruel and unusual punishment.”
This ruling came after Georgia change it’s law to state that acts between teens relatively close in age a misdemeanor instead of a felony.
The system is rigged and if this case doesn’t prove that that I don’t know what would. This young man could have had normal vaginal sex with the same teen and had nothing happen to him at all. I’m happy for see Georgia rid their selves of old draconian oral sex penalty laws, but is it too late for those already in prison which don’t have the media handlers and support Wilson does? I’m afraid so.
Wilson says he hopes to attend college to pursue a college degree in sociology or business.
