Isn’t Liberal Justice wonderbar?
A former teacher at a Lubec elementary school was sentenced Friday in Washington County (Maine) Superior Court to 30 days in jail for having a sexual relationship with a 13-year-old boy.
Tina Mason, 31, of East Machias cried and sniffled in the courtroom as she pleaded no contest to charges of assault, sexual abuse of a minor and unlawful sexual touching. The victim, who is now 15 years old, showed no emotion while he sat on the other side of the courtroom with his family.
They were probably tears of joy that she wasn’t going to be sent away for decades for statutory rape
Mason sought to avoid serving time behind bars, but Justice Kevin Cuddy agreed with the prosecution’s recommended sentence of 30 days in jail for Mason, who is married and has two young children.
“There is nothing I can say that will make this situation any better,†Mason tearfully told the judge. “Please think of my own children. Who will protect them if I’m not there?â€
How about someone who hasn’t been having sex with a minor? That would be a good start.
I’m just sickened.
