Okay, let's just let the child-molester go, alright, because the law's wrong.

Sometimes the idiocy of the legal system reeeally makes my brain hurt.

Appellate Court rules sex abuse statute unconstitutional

In part:
The court ruled that the state law barring a stepparent from having sex with a stepchild of the opposite sex who is over 16 years old violates the equal protection rights because the state statute language does not prohibit the same relationship with a stepchild of the same sex.
So they overturned the guy's conviction.
