    This whole story is awful. It began when she was a freshman? Ewwww.

    Looking back at old pictures, I hadn't even learned to tweeze my eyebrows yet. Ewww.

    For the life of me I cannot remember
    What made us think that we were wise and
    We'd never compromise
    For the life of me I cannot believe
    We'd ever die for these sins
    We were merely freshmen

    Let this be a lesson to all you underage girls out there: Eyebrow-tweezing first. Statutory rape later.

    He started when she was 14, shot. If some woman was raped by a man, then later decided she loved him and married him, would you ask us to look for hope? Yes, it's an extreme example....but I'm not sure it's one that is far off base.

    Good question, what is his excuse. There are many folks walking around today with emotional problems and some just have never grown up and can't relate to people their own age, only to younger people. These people wind up in all walks of life. But how do you spot them in a job interview, when you're looking for a coach?

    Oh, I didn't expect you to agree with the rest. I just think you are being a bit naive on this issue. This started when he was 38 and she was 14. He's not a loving husband. He's a child predator.
