Illinois Babysitter Charged With Pimping Girl in Her Care
 
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,291257,00.html

[QUOTEGRANITE CITY, Ill. — A Metro East baby sitter is being held on charges she allowed a man to have sex with a 12-year-old girl in her care for money.
Amber Salts, 20, was charged Friday with contributing to the delinquency of a minor and pimping. Salts allegedly took the girl to the Granite City home of 48-year-old Larry Westwood on July 18 and July 25 and allowed him to have sex with her, said Madison County sheriff's Sgt. Mike Dixon.
Westwood allegedly paid the girl $140 after the assaults. Officials say she split part of the money with Salts.][/quote]

Jail is not good enough for this girl. How about has Isaac says a short rope and a tall tree.:D

Re: charged Friday with contributing to the delinquency of a minor and pimping.

Charged with "pimping"? Is that a joke? Why not charged with rape?

joepole 07-30-2007 12:48 PM

Because she didn't rape anybody?

$140 is actually a decent price for that.

rhertz 07-30-2007 12:58 PM

A 12 year old cannot consent to sex. Therefore any such sexual activity is assumed to be coercive since the minor is considered by law to be incapable of giving consent to the acts.

Sounds like Joe has just returned from Granite City trolling for 12 yr. olds again!:mad:

Actually, in this case, Joe is right. Because Salts did not perform any sexual activities with the girl, she cannot be held liable for rape. The police are charging her accurately when they bust her for pimping and contributing to delinquency.

However, this Larry Westwood guy CAN be held for statutory rape. He deserves the short rope and the tall tree. As far as Joe's comment about $140 being a good price, I guess only Joe has the experience and/or knowledge to accurately grade that sick deal.

How about "conspiracy to commit rape" or "accessory to rape" or something like that. Is that not a crime?

joepole 07-30-2007 04:36 PM

Maybe, depends on the state.

rhertz 07-30-2007 04:51 PM

Nodding. I would think that some states might even have a blanket law for "conspiracy to commit a felony" or "accessory to a felony" that could be used by prosecutors no matter what the felony crime is.

I think Fancy was her name :rolleyes:

Whose name?
