The 16-year-old took a video recording of the alleged assault and sent it to his friends along with a text that read, “When your first time is rape.” The judge says he “is clearly a candidate for not just college but probably for a good college”
Monmouth County Superior Court. Photo: Mr. Matté/Wikicommons A family court judge ruled that a 16-year-old boy who was accused of rape should be granted leniency because he comes from a “good family” and scores well on tests — even though he took a video recording of the alleged assault and sent it to his friends along with a text that read, “When your first time is rape,” the New York Times reports.
In September 2017, the Monmouth County prosecutor’s office recommended that [G.M.C.] be tried as an adult, as “his behavior was calculated and cruel.” But Troiano didn’t see G.M.C. that way; instead, he saw a promising student with his whole life ahead of him, and rejected the prosecutors’ suggestion.
Troiano also argued that the alleged assault was not a “traditional case of rape,” as it did not involve a male with a weapon who cornered his victim in an “abandoned” building and “[took] advantage of the person as well as [beat] the person.”
