Outlaw

The Resume

    (circa 1986- )
    Resident of Douglasville, Georgia
    Received a 10-year sentence for 'aggravated child molestation' for receiving oral sex from a 15-year-old girl when he was 17
    Was freed after serving two years when the State Supreme Court declared his sentence 'cruel and unusual' (October 26, 2007)

Why he might be annoying:

    He admitted to becoming sexually active at age 13.
    He smoked marijuana.
    He had oral sex with an underage girl and was videotaped doing it.
    He was also videotaped having sex with a drunk seventeen-year-old.
    Several of his supporters played the race card.

Why he might not be annoying:

    Before his arrest, he was an honor student and his high school homecoming king.
    The fifteen year old testified that she initiated the sexual act.
    Several members of the jury that convicted him complained they had been unaware that the verdict would result in a minimum ten-year sentence.
    Under a Georgia 'Romeo and Juliet' law, if he and the girl had vaginal sex, it would have been a misdemeanor; since they had oral sex, it became a felony.
    After his conviction, the legislature changed the law so the act would be a misdemeanor, but included no provision to allow the law to be applied retroactively.
    After his release, he said he wanted to study sociology because 'I feel like I've been living my major.'
    He said he had no 'negative energy' toward the district attorney who convicted him.
