Here's a brief snippet for those that don't wish to read the entire article:

An 18-year-old in Utah who was accused of having sex with a 13-year-old avoided jail after the laws governing sexual offenses were changed while his relative was president of the state Senate.

Senate President J. Stuart Adams confided to legislators that the law relating to his relative's case should be reviewed in a large bill that was passed in 2024, according to a report from The Salt Lake Tribune.

SB213, a 49-page bill sponsored by Republican Senate Majority Leader Kirk Cullimore, passed into law in March 2024, changing sentencing rules over sex between teenagers.

Prior to the bill passing, the 18-year-old could have faced a charge of child rape, a first-degree felony that would have required them to register as a sex offender, along with a prison sentence ranging anywhere from six years to life in jail.

However, the bill allowed a clause that lets 17-year-olds receive a less serious third-degree charge of unlawful sexual activity to be extended to 18-year-olds, provided they were still in high school.

The bill's sponsor, Cullimore, told the Tribune that Adams had requested that the charges against the relative be looked into for the legislation. Adams denied using his political power to benefit a relative.

You know, Republicans, if you want to actually defend children from pedophiles, maybe stop voting for the people who protect pedophiles.

We know that's not what they really want.

Seems like the original law is also an issue since I don't think a 17 year-old should be sleeping with a 13 year-old either.

So I take it you're fine with this blatant corruption on top of the 18 year old raping a 13 year old? Because that's what it was, the 13 year couldn't consent.

18 year old with a 13 year old is just wrong

reminds me of a dude I knew in high school that got with a 13 year old when he was 17 and a 15 year old when he was 20

he ended up being a decorated marine

nothing happen to him because the parents approved of the relationship

The GOP has been trying to tie gay people to pederasty since the 70s so I'm kinda NOT surprised that they would just change a law to protect someone who raped a minor.

Yes, using your political power to protect your criminal family members from prosecution is indeed corruption.

Fucking obviously.

Friend, I think I found your problem right here.

It's insane that people here have been suspended for so much less but defending this gets so little.

Anyways, this is fucking gross. It needs to become socially unviable to be a Republican, they're just the pedophile party.

That's because Republican "family values" are a license for men in positions of power to rape women and children at will, except for women and children owned by other men in positions of power.
