NEWS: Genarlow Wilson Freed
Friday, October 26, 2007

Georgia’s Supreme Court on Friday ordered the release of a young man who has been imprisoned for more than two years for having consensual oral sex with another teenager.
The court ruled 4-3 that Genarlow Wilson’s 10-year sentence was cruel and unusual punishment.
Wilson, 21, was convicted of aggravated child molestation following a 2003 New Year’s Eve party at a Douglas County hotel room where he was videotaped having oral sex with a 15-year-old girl. He was 17 at the time.

Maybe I’m slow or something, but how would that be child molestation if he was a minor at the time to at age 17? If the young lady was 8 or 9 I could see where it would be problem, but come on. He should get paid for the 2 years of his life lost for wrongful imprisonment.

Thank you Lord for answering our prayers. Oh, yes there are some Christians who come here. If it were not for our prayers because of the hate and negative words it would probably be worse, and to Ms. Angel and her team it’s not but by the grace of God you are here and you need to stop with your personal vendettas, if you don’t like someone then leave them alone and don’t use your site as a way to sabatoge their career or slander them, you have your pics and I want to let you know God shows no respect for persons but the devil does…and let me add I normally don’t call other peoples children ugly but I see why you want to make someone else look bad because you yourself have low self esteem and you know who I am referring too and I don’t care what you post she will always be our girl and our princess. So you and your resident bloggers get over it!!!!! Thank you.
Now curse me out because I am old enough to be your mama, I know who your mama is I have from your home town and still live in the state.(I tell you thi is no lie in the name of the Lord).
With your smart selves you are smart aren’t you. You should support your home people not try to belittle them and pretend and be condescending that means you are a phony and maybe people will see the REAL you as a result. Yes, I said it now, what!!!!!
By the way you can comment I am out of here, once a week is enough for me.
This story here is news!!!!! and I know is family is praising God we are, because we have truly have been praying for him.

This is truly a blessing. He should have never went to jail (and prison at that) in the first place. This was truly an injustice and hopefully nothing happened to him while he was in prison for that time for those type of charges. Hopefully he can go on to college and do good things for himself.

LOL @ #6! I’m really glad that he’s out, but it’s fucked up because he can’t get those two years of his life back. He was on his way to college, he had a bright future ahead of him. Now what? I can’t imagine what he had to go through in prison, smh. I feel terrible for that young man. I’m sure he’ll sue and get some money, but I know it won’t be enough to make up for all the shit he went through.

About the other comments, Angel is going to slam curse you out.She don’t care who you are.
I did not comment yesterday because I was getting tired of some stuff to it was almost being in school and the bully getting her buch to mess with people, maybe it is time somebody said something and like my grandmother says these folk on these gossip blogs don’t care about none of you all really, they will do whatever to get ahead and I believe this time granny may be right.

MEN STOP ENCOURAGING YOUNG MEN TO PROVE THEIR MANHOOD BY SEEKING SEXUAL CONQUESTS
NOTHING IS FOR FREE-ANY YOUNG GIRL WHO IS WILLING TO BE INVOLVED IN SEXUAL ACTS WITH A GROUP OF MALES /OR MALE SUCH AS THIS IS OBVIOUS MISGUIDED AND DEEPLY TROUBLED AND YOU NEVER KNOW IF SHE MAY HAVE REMORSE FOR HER ACTIONS-AND ALL OF SUDDEN FORGET IT WAS CONSENSUAL AND SAY SHE DIDN’T WANT IT TO HAPPEN
RATHER IT WAS HER WHO MADE THE CLAIMS OR THE STATE PICKED UP THE CHARGES IT DOESN’T MATTER-
I DON’T KNOW THE INS AND OUTS OF THE CASE AND I DON’T NEED TO-BECAUSE I DON’T HAVE ALL DAY TO BE ON THE INTERNET READING ABOUT CASES THAT DON’T AFFECT ME PERSONALLY
BUT IT’S OBVIOUS THAT SEX SHOULD BE WITH SOMEONE YOU CAN AT LEAST TRUST-AND THAT USUALLY COMES WITHIN A LOVINIG AND COMMITTED RELATIONSHIP
WE NEED TO TEACH AND PREACH TO YOUNG MEN AS MUCH AS WE LASH OUT AT FAST TALE GIRLS ABOUT ABSTINENCE OR AT LEAST SEX WITHIN A COMMITTED RELATIONSHIP-
OLE BOY GOT CAUGHT UP FOR GETTING A “FREE-NO STRINGS ATTACH BJ” AND WE ALL KNOW IN THE HOOD INCIDENTS LIKE THIS TAKE PLACE -EVERYDAY-
THINK YOUNG MEN IS IT REALLY WORTH IT?

At the story, I am glad he is out also. I hope jail didn’t do too much damage to this young man’s state of mind. He does deserve some type of compensation although I don’t know how they can put a price on 2 year’s of a person’s life. Hey, that rhymed. No biters please

#20 - Your post started good, but then you slipped into some other mess quick. It’s clear the devil uses everybody in a lot of different ways. But if you have issue with Angel and the site, you could easily send her an email message. As far as the comments, they are from posters not the site managers. Yes, sometimes there are some comments, arguments and disrespect that is just foolishness, and a lot of celebrities get slammed and slandered - but there is some good too. They provide a balanced approach to the stories - not just entertainment, but social issues.
Sometimes the posters even help one another with information and guidance and encouargement for one another. Like everything in life - you have a choice. You can come here and offer some good, or just sling shit - but this post is about something wonderful happening - some justice for this young brother — Let’s focus on that.

I am so glad that he is out! But what really bothers me is that there are real child molesters out here who are raping young girls and boys and they get a slap on the wrist, and then get put back into society to do the same crap all over again. This young man had consensual oral sex and he had to serve time in jail. THIS COUNTRY FOCUSES ON ALL OF THE WRONG THINGS AND THE WRONG PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I wish Genarlow the best of luck on getting his life back together because he did miss a few years.

I thought I was the only one wondering what in the world did #20 say…My goodness…Sounds like a bunch of rambling and CONTRADICTING! Yall know how them church folks get down…Claim they holy then tho then come right back n talk about you….she crazy!

i think its ridiculous that he even went to jail in the first place,i mean 15 and 17…..i’m thinking they were gonna say 15 and 19 or 15 and 18 even,but they were both minors number 1 and number 2 obviously she didnt have a problem when she was doing it….oh let me guess her head just “fell” in between his lap…..ummmm yeah
i’m glad for him and he should very well sue,i mean if he went to jail then there are wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too many others that should go.

@ #20 first off before you go off on someone make sure that your grammar game is on point. Secondly if you have that much nonsense to speak about Angel stay off her sits. It’s not like she making you come on her site once a week like you claim. Last but not least you say that she belittles people??? You must be on the wrong site because she doesn’t talk negativly about anyone. The people who comment on the site may say something mean but she doesn’t. Anyway step your game up when you trying to play somebody and get your facts together.
I’m so 504!!!!!

____________
Actually the records show that she is Black - the issue is there was proof of the sex act –a videotape and the law at the time was that minors could have consenual, CONVENTIONAL sex, but oral sex is prohibited. The giral has repeatedly said the oral sex act was consensual, but by law she cannot consent to oral sex, only intercourse.

@# 20
Friday, October 26, 2007 /
I am not confused, I hear what you are saying and I understand and if you are really a Christian the best thing to dois pray because these folk will tear you to shred, it is obvious everybody has their own ideas of right and wrong in todays society. Just stay away from these sites we are in the last days and you might and hear and do anything and these young folk will curse you out or kill you.
We live in a world full of hate deal with and if Angel does have her picks then let her what God has for someone is someone, and we live in an unjust society look at what happen to that young man and as one person said what goes around comes around.
This is Angels livelihood and she can say and do what she pleases just stay away, because if you disagree it will only cause a mess.
God bless this young man and his family.

I AM SO THANKFUL111
Friday, October 26, 2007 /
I am so thankful he is released, is there anyway he can be compensated for his time lost.I sure hope he gets full tuition to finish his studies and I hope he was not marred.
@ # 43 Don’t blast me, but I understand #20 too, there are times I wanted to say something but I knew I would get blasted on because I was bullied a lot and picked on but this year I recieved my Masters degree and I married a physician and I am not that ugly, project living woman today.I have no children yet but reading these comments is teaching me what they can expect in todays society. Most of those who called me names are not doing well at all. About the balance sometimes I wonder and I am reasonably intelligent, as i was reading these comments I heard hurt and it could be someones family member who has yet to understand the celebrity game and that is people hate who they hate and love who they love and it is mostly based on looks.
@59 You are right too. If something does not edify you then they should stay away from it. I probably won’t come back to the Loop today because I know I am going to get it for simply voicing my opinion and if you don’t follow the crowd.God forbid and I never was a good follower that’s why the bullies never liked me.

Baby - I am not going to blast you - and I wasn’t trying to blast #20 either… just trying to say there was another way to get that off of her chest. As a christian, you understand that no one is perfect and you need to try and extend that understanding whenever you can.
There are a lot of things that are posted and comments made that are just hateful and disrespectful.
You say that sometimes you feel the same way, but didn’t speak up because you were bullied - first, you grown now baby. Don’t continue to carry that burden. You have a Masters degree –CONGRATULATIONS! - and married, and you say you’re not that ugly project girl anymore - YOU NEVER WERE. Just because someone says it, doesn’t make it true. See you are still thinking about those bullys who hurt you as a child, and as long as you do, you carry that hurt - let that go.
You don’t have to think about them, you don’t have to say anything to them if you see them - your success says it all. And we have to understand, sometimes children who bully don’t even realize that they are hurting someone, and other times, they have so much pain from abuse, neglient, and mistreatment, that they prey on others. I say understand it — but don’t accept it.
I am glad you shared your story because you can best believe that there is someone else on this site going through that now, and your story lets them know, you can came through and out on that mess on top.
That was my only point - there is good and bad in most things… you have take the best, and to hell — I mean, forget the rest.

Sade-Nothing Can Come Between Us
Friday, October 26, 2007 /
Thank you @ #53, I was like what are these two talking about, the girl was black. I know you would love to blame it on the white women and show this as an example for black men not to date them but unfortunatelty it is not. The girl is one of us.
Anyway, this is great. I sometimes wish I could see the future. At this point I would really like to see his future. I wonder what Genarlow is going to do and be in the next five years. I say this because now he has a record because of some sneaky ass little girl. See what being fast ass leads to, damn kids need to stop acting grown and should keep their heads in their studies. This goes for both Genarlow and that little girl. I know he had a bright future and all, he was/is smart but most of the times you have to be smart in all aspects. And that means not going along with peer pressure and your raging hormones. But, what is done is done and even though Im not happy about his situation Im happy and glad he’s going home. Now hopefully he has a chance and can start fresh.

That’s law needs to be reworded. Its way too easy for parents to file statutory rape charges on guys when the sexual acts were concentual.
