Yes. Much of law is based on injury. In the case of the campaign contributions (again, I don't know the details) it sounds like he was using the funds for his campaign - to pay staffers. Now the practice of funneling money from contributors to staffers is probably rightly illegal because it could defraud the contributors. Nevertheless, it could also be done in such a way that it doesn't. To me, this sounds like a case where it did not. That is, I certainly wouldn't complain if my contribution was given to a rock star staffer who really threw down for the cause. In the case of banging a teen, you're taking advantage of position of power to use another human's body and emotions, things that cannot be replaced or repaired or repaid, thus the injury is more severe and so should the punishment be. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:217828 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5
