I think the courts should have the power to decide ambiguous cases involving issues in the 16-22 year old range. Outside of that, it should be a case by case on sentencing but not on whether it was a crime.
I think he recieved proper punishment. I don't think keeping him in jail is necessarily the answer as it just sucks up resources for someone who doesn't seem likely to reoffend. So that combined with his sex offender status andprobation is probably good enough to properly deter others, protect the public, and punish him.

16-22?
You think a 22 year old is incapable of making a decision like that? The person sleeping with them should potentially face jail time or be considered a sex offender?
I mean I can at least understand the 16-18 arugments. But at 22, many people have graduated university, are working, and have bought homes.
Did you honestly live this kind of puritan lifestyle between 16 and 22, or are these just morals you feel should be forced upon young people now?
