: How Appealing

"SJC sees possible bias in rape case; Why charge only the boy? Judges bitterly divided on issue."

ADVERTISEMENTS
"SJC sees possible bias in rape case; Why charge only the boy? Judges bitterly divided on issue." The Boston Globe today contains an article that begins, "A sharply divided Supreme Judicial Court said yesterday that a 14-year-old boy accused of statutory rape may have been a victim of gender discrimination because authorities charged him and not the three underage girls with whom he allegedly had sex."

And The Associated Press reports that "Court questions whether Plymouth County prosecutors should have charged preteen girls in rape case; Teen boy claims discrimination."

You can access yesterday's ruling of the Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts at this link.
