Yes, I would argue this judge ruined his life, when it could have been a reasonable outcome (maybe something like 5 year probation, avoiding females < 18 years old, 200 hours community service + court costs.)

I don't have an issue with his life being ruined IF he's guilty. A guy his age with kids who doesn't know better than to do what he did would probably commit full-on rape if he thought for sure he could get away with it. He'd probably do anything at all if he could get away with it.
My issue is that the whole case is very much he-said/she-said with no objective evidence whatsoever. I think he's guilty, but not beyond a reasonable doubt and I don't really think you can achieve that standard in this situation.

Again, it boils down to not having to worry that the groping will escalate beyond some threshold. In the back of my mind, I know that I'm ultimately in control with how far down the path it goes. If I want it to stop, I can make it stop. Of course a female in the reverse situation can't always say the same thing.
If I thought I was in danger of being raped, I'd absolutely have a problem with unwanted contact, even by an attractive woman.

Seriously, you guys? "Ew, I got groped by a girl!"
I'm betting ALL of you bragged to your buddies, "She couldn't keep her hands off me!"
It's a whole different ball game for women. As a rule, they're smaller and weaker. They, unlike you, have internal sexual organs that can be forcibly violated.
Why is it when a male teacher violates a female student, you are nauseated, but when a female teacher does a young male, you secretly wish it had been you?

By the way, Samuel Colt made us all equals.

The one? That FL blonde FL hotttie teach, Debra Lefave. I don't care how many million times you look at it, that one gets a pass. Your average overweight, late 40's, hair losing slob would love to walk around saying, yah' man', that was me she was nailin' as a kid

Do you think someone should be convicted of drunk driving or weapon possession if the only evidence is the testimony of a 17-year old accuser? Even if the accuser has no reason to lie?
