Welcome to all sexual crimes in America. Just down the road from me a grandfather was caught in the act by the dad with daughter, dad got more time for beating the shit out of him than grandpa did for molestation.

Assuming that something happened in the USA and making the obligatory "This is America" comment without even bothering to read the article is, ironically, a peak Americanism.

>non-molestation order

I Googled that to see if it was really a thing...turns out it is. Makes me wonder what the point is of getting a court to forbid an already forbidden thing...
