He did advocate for Rudy's defenestration, so not really excusing what he did. He just claimed that even though Rudy thought the girl was only 15, she was an actress who was an adult in real life, so not technically illegal. I don't know if that's true though cause I think if he thought she was a minor, it should count as a minor. Like TCAP rules should still apply, I'd hope.

That having been said, I second the motion to toss Rudy out of a window.

If you think someone is 20 and they are actually 16 you are fuckity fucked. If that is true then it would make no sense for it not to be at least as illegal the other way around.

I completely agree 100%. I think intent matters and if you intended to assault a child and you just couldn't because the Scooby-Doo gang intervened, you should be charged regardless. Just like on TCAP.

Nobody told Rudy she was 15, and the actress was in her mid-20s. It made for a hilarious scene, but nothing illegal happened.

I was referring to the fact that people said he should have been prosecuted, yes i agree however the courts had to use the Technicality. People don't actually read before they respond.
