Asshole of the Day, August 29, 2013: Todd Baugh
by TeaPartyCat
When it comes to statutory rape, a 54-year-old having sex with a 14-year-old seems pretty open-and-shut. Too young to consent. There can be no other factors. No brainer, right?
Not to Judge Todd Baugh. He decided that the girl was “older than her chronological age”, and so rather than give the rapist 15 years in prison, suspends all but 31 days.
And he says this knowing that the girl has since committed suicide.
Asshole.

There’s also a petition against the judge who excused statutory rape up from Elayne Boosler if you want to sign: http://www.thepetitionsite.com/848/062/410/unseat-judge-g-todd-baugh-fire-principal-scott-anderson/
