Even if her behaviour was 'predatory' (which I don't accept - it mischaracterises the power differential between a 13 year old girl and a 41 year old man) using it in this context, at this point in the trial was wrong in my opinion. It was used as mitigation of the man's guilt and it effectively cast judgement on the girl. She was not on trial. It was entirely inappropriate to brand her in this way.
We are clearly not going to agree on this. It will be interesting to see what comes of the review into the matter.
