I could be off by a year on the cutoff. But I do think that the buffer is only a year. But in that case 367 days is treated the same as 730, which in teen development years is pretty big in terms of social and emotional development.

 

I'm no expert in any way, but isn't that highly individual?

 

I kinda felt like once i got my license and a girlfriend the summer before my junior year (she was a grade younger but one of the younger people in that grade, so i might be one of the scumbags goony is talking about) i was pretty much the same guy from then until i graduated.

 

it wasn't until a year into college or so that i started looking back at that guy like he was a moron.

Yes, I think social, emotional maturity is highly individualized.

 

Truthfully I'm not sure how the law is written though. If it's just a straight age-in-years thing, you have this weird set up were its not legal for a length of time, could be legal for a short time, say a month, and then is illegal again for up to nearly a year. If it's based on just a days thing you wouldn't get quite that odd switching of legality. Anyways this is indeed a huge tangent because seriously if there was any question of the women's age, Kane is a mega-huge scumbag.

What situation would you have where it is illegal, then legal, then illegal again?

Agreed, if anything it would only be the opposite.

Guy is 17, girl is 15. She turns 16, 6 months later, he turns 18. Illegal, legal, illegal.

Hypothetical: 16 is age of consent, but a "one year" buffer where 16/15 is okay, however isn't defined in strictly day terms.

 

P1 born Feb 1 1998.

P2 born Jan 1 2000.

 

Jan 2, 2014 = legal 15/14

Feb 2, 2014 = illegal 16/14

Jan 2, 2015 = legal 16/15

Feb 2, 2015 = illegal 17/15

Jan 2, 2016 = legal 17/16

 

Unless of course that year buffer or whatever it is more specifically defined to be exactly 365 days rather than simply "age-in-years". Of days are strictly defined as the buffer or there is no buffer but age of consent is an absolute, it's still legally strange because apparently minors can consent with eachother until one is "of age".

 

Either way I'd doubt the actual impact of these situations like this. Sounds like the same type of scare tactic as "girl makes up rape".

Here's Tim Graham on WGN Radio. Starts around the 7:30 mark.

He doesn't really say anything new, but he does give a broad overview that the tone from his sources is: ‘It’s looking more ominous than not’

 

Sounds like the reporters have heard more than they're reporting, but are making sure they have all of their facts lined up with their attorneys' approval.

Any chance you could post a better link? For whatever reason that hyperlink is including the "..." from when it got shortened.

So, is now the time to trade Kane? Is Luongo I'll available?

You know John McDonough and the Blackhawks are beyond pissed right now, whether he gets charged or not. They were pissed at Crawford for getting drunk at the Rise Against concert and getting hurt.

Would it be hasty of me to just throw out my Kane shersey now or should I let the investigation play out?

I'd let it play out but I really hope Blackhawks fans don't turn into Florida State fans and blindly support him because of the wins he brings. Can't bring myself to support someone like that.

Yea but he's already a known scumbag and I got this as a gift- I would have chosen another player if I was buying it myself anyways.

Yeah even if there are no charges filed, everyone will assume he paid her off or she didn't choose to go after him because of the media hoopla involved.

 

The only way that Kane gets through this relatively unscathed is if the DA or police publicly announce that Kane is completely cleared of any wrongdoing and this was a baseless accusation.

All things considered, not a bad response from Toews

[tweet]

[/tweet]

Disagree completely, should have been a simple "no comment". This was extremely bad of Toews to compare the rumor last year to a rape allegation.

No comment is for team officials. Toews is talking about the players interacting with each other. I can see where you are coming from and do not think it was a great statement, but I don't see the foot in mouth quote there.

All the talk radio people on twitter are aghast. It wasn't elegant at all, but I think it's easy enough to understand what Toews was trying to say, even if he didn't quite nail it.

He's never given a hint of being a well spoken guy. But he's the only remaining face of the franchise with teeth in his mouth and is going to be facing a lot of cameras the next few weeks.

And i'm guessing Blackhawks PR has already spoken to him since this interview and said "um, maybe lets not talk about this".

WGRZ in New York reports a woman, who was with the accuser, has been subpoenaed to appear before a grand jury on Tuesday, September 8.

 

A woman accused Kane of raping her at his home in Hamburg, last month.

 

The accuser and another woman reportedly met with Kane at a bar, before they all went to his house.

 

Kane was never arrested or charged with a crime.

 

It's not clear how long the grand jury has been involved or if any other witnesses were subpoenaed.
