Note that this is not about the rape that he committed. Or about the identity theft that he committed - This is an entirely different case. It just happens that he is also guilty of rape and identity theft, but there's no need to mention the raping and scamming when discussing this particular case.
The article mentions those.
It heavily mentions the ID theft since this voids the ID theft probation deal he had and is precisely what Boebert is asking for leniency on.
Funny all my priors are taken into consideration whenever I break the law, funny rules for me but not thee, fuck that long hard prison time
Okay so when you are saying he raped someone your talking about the charge he got for sharing a video of him having sex with a 17 year old at age 18? Guys a piece of shit and shouldn't have shared that or filmed it. But every state has laws pertaining to what is considered consensual when they are around the same age.
Or are you talking about yet another case this person somehow to up to while doing everything else wrong
Those kind of laws have led to underage people getting charged for disseminating child porn for sharing naked pics of themselves consensually. Not sure about in CO but in other states.
Yeah it's that charge he's talking about. It's mentioned in the article.
So brave of you to defend the manufacture and distribution of child pornography.
