Exactly, his actions were dumb, and reckless.
But calling this kid a sexual pervert, rapist, assaulter, and all the other things that were cast his way, was equally dumb and reckless based on what was seen in that video.
I'm glad the reporter seems to have taken the 'water under the bridge' approach, as the guy seemed to have learned a lesson, and admitted fault without making any excuses.
