Prisoned footballer Adam Johnson filmed bragging he wished he raped victim
 

Good, shows him for the scum he is.

He did wrong and he's paying the price but ffs, he is not a paedophile, he is a sex offender.

Just what I was about to say.

Definitely not a pedo.

Just a hot blooded male with little self control

saying he wish he raped a 15 year old suggests different

Makes him the sex offender he is. To be a paedo he would have to be saying that about a pre-pubescent child.

Or an underage girl, which is what she is.

Paedophiles are very different monsters than sex offenders. We can cry paedo all we like but that's not what he is. A 15 year old girl can look like an 18 year old girl, a two year old girl can't look like anything other than an infant.

I make no excuses for him, what he did was a sex offence and regardless of how old she looked, he shouldn't of touched her without confirming her age.

He knew her age all along so this she looks like 18 is bs

If he knew her age he's definitely a sex offender. If he didn't know her age he would still be a sex offender.

An older man grooming younger under age girls is a paedo, never mind also having sexual activity with her.
He knew she was an underaged schoolgirl.
Of course he is also a sex offender.

I agree. Glad his career is over.

Ok Mrs Hopkins

To be fair DR is technically correct, Johnsons actions are more akin to hebephillia based on what he appears to be interested in. Theres also a different word for those interested in those younger than 5.

But i think people use the word pedo as more of an umbrella term which includes all of these people, although it technically means 'older than a toddler but younger than prepubescent'.

First paragraph. DR's correct, and there's different terminology

I'd rather he have the label of paedo for the rest of his life. I don't care much for terminology

He's a creep fullstop.

He is released in 3 weeks

Niel Lennon is perching.

He’s not wrong tbf. Far worse crimes have got minor sentences. Still a **** that should rot though.

Should he not be allowed, to now get on with his life after serving his sentence?

After all we let far worse men and women back into society!

Or because he was a semi famous footballer he cant try and rebuild his life?

I’m interested in people’s views on this.

Sex offenders should never be allowed too just get in with life

So what about murderers? And if he was not a semi famous footballer that got put in the paper for months you would not even know his name like thousands of other non famous sex offenders.

What’s the use of having the justice system if someone can’t go back into society.
