Controversy alert: he was 19 and the girl was 12 (probably in adolescence) and whilst this is obviously very wrong, and would be wrong no matter what her age was (as he forced himself on her), and is definitely worse with her being so young, and whilst he may be considered a child molester in the eyes of the law... In truth, he is probably not actually a paedophile.

"Just" a rapist. Nonetheless, he did prey on someone young and vulnerable, and whilst as I said in the footballer thread - people need to be able to get back into society after serving their sentence or the whole thing is a farce - I personally am not convinced that he should even be out of prison yet let alone making huge career strides. It seems like questionably soft sentencing to me.
