It’s great that Mr. Wilson is out. Currently here in GA there are over 1000 inmates who are incarcerated for conviction’s that mirror Mr. Wilson’s. There is going to be an onslaught of appeals in the coming months and their attorney’s are going to seek to use this ruling as precedent. I doubt they will have similar success.

It is surely a lessoned learned for him. I hope he can get his life back on track, they say he was a pretty good athlete with alot of major universities looking at him for full ride scholarships befiore this all happened. I wonder if Oprah will have him on her show.

NOW THIS IS SOMETING TO TALK ABOUT…THANK YOU LAWD….HE IS FREE NOW. I DONT UNDERSTAND THE CHARGES HE GOT WHEN IN FACT HE WAS UNDERAGE…MAYBE GEORGIA LAWS ARE DIFFRENT. ANY WHO, I’M GLAD HE IS OUT…IT SAD THAT HE HAD TO SERVE ALL THAT TIME FOR SOMETHING THAT WAZ NOT AGAINST THE LAW.

THANK THE LORD!!!!

AND HE COULD GET IT, BUT HE PROBABLY DONT WANT IT, I BET SEX IS THE LAST THING ON HIS MIND…CAN HE SUE? AND GET BROKE OFF??

This is what can be done if we quit whining and do be legally aggressive about issues. That “whiteman” stuff can be a waste. The district atty. perpetrating this mess is “black.”

I was happy when my friend told me this young man had finally been released. It’s ridiculous that Genarlow had sit in a cell for 2 years for the judicial to come around and see how stupid this ruling was. The sh** people go to jail for…

Genarlow wilson is just another victim of ant-male hysteria!!
goto…mensactivism.org

Boyz, don’t videotape that shit, you idiots.

Praise God

to all the women saying thats what he get because it was a white girl does it really matter if she was white black hispanic or asain. Head is head sorry he had to go down for it but damn stop being so hateful

I seen this on CNN this morning and was so happy. All I could say was Thank You Jesus.

COSIGN #8. THANKFULLY HE HAS RECEIVED JUSTICE BUT TWO YEARS OF HIS LIFE ARE GONE FOREVER. I WISH HIM THE BEST.

first of all who recorded him gettin his dick suck

WOW….#20…Those without sin cast the first stone…I guess you must be one hell of a perfect person

oh and I am so happy he is freed!!! God Bless his family and him

I’m happy that he was freed but he’ll never get back those 2 years that he lost in jail.

Good for the brother. Hopefully he’ll learn from this experience. For the people that lament his loss of two years, there are innocent black men in prison that have lost or will lose all their years and lives. It’s behind the man now. If we’re gonna think about the past than let it be something that will affect the future.

man im happy for him im glad i only miss with older sistahs so i ain’t got to have this issue.

First of all, congratulations Genarlow and your family! This decision has taken entirely too long and you never should have been locked up in the first place. Especially not for something most high schoolers do. Please take this opportunity to make the most out of your life and prove all the naysayers wrong. Show the world who has been watching this case that you are a good person at heart and this was simply a made a bad mistake. Just remember getting head does not make you a man.

By the way I am so tired of mothers with teenage daughters who think their girls are without fault. This guy was a kid himself. I’ve got news mothers of daughters. All kids have sex and if they say they don’t they lie. Notice I didn’t call your daughters the hoochies they probably deserve to be called. Those fast hoes need thier butts whipped.

1. Glad he’s out…definitely disproportional to the offense.

2. Keep them cameras off

oh my God are you serious!!! this is wonderful news! finally somone has listened to the public’s cry, and the struggle has not been in vain. God really does answer prayers! I’m so excited to hear this!!!

THATS GOOD…AND THEY LETTIN T.I. OUT BUT ON HOUSE ARREST

When i was 14 my boyfriend was 18 and i used to give him oral, i never knew it was a crime.

it really was a crime, he was a grown man. where yo mama?

This is kinda of odd. I do not know what to say. I am glad that he is out and a free man because they were oth children when the situation occured. How has this affected him?

How could they initially have given him 10 years? Since when is getting head a crime?

They were both minors at the time, only 2 years apart and it was consensual ! Stuff like that happens EVERYsingleDAY. There was NO crime committed.

I would sue for MILLIONS!

LOL duh it was consensual and it lasted 2 years. I was the one that ended it.

Older men are better lovers and have money to take me shopping. When i was 14 the boys my age were not into sex they were into video games so i had to get mines

did he get any head while he was in prison?

If he was desperate for head that he had to let a minor suck his pipe then whats to stop him from letting a dude suck it.

Pedophiles and gays are all the same

^^^^^ Not trying to be rude but you was a little fast ass I see.

That was for #104.

you sure that was for 104? and not me?

WOW! The U.S. Justice System does something right! Watching him on CNN now.

i just saw it on CNN. Genarlow is kinda cute i would suck him off but i am 19 not 15 so he probably wouldnt want head from me

His loss my head game is fiyah

Im sooo glad to hear this…its about time they let him out

When I heard about this on Frank and Wanda this morning, I was in the car screaming for joy. Im so glad. Pray works!

baby girl thats called TRICKING. i know it’s cute on tv but it’s not cute at all.
@ 14 you should have been into less grown up things than worrying about ‘getting yours’. again, where is yo’ mama?

see# 94 you r so right

Unlike you 112 i never had a daddy to support me so i had to grow up real fast. And i wasnt ricking i never gave head to man i never liked and i never asked for money they just gave it to me and i took it.

Just so you know i am a junior in college and its a man thats paying the balance of my tuition and i only had sex with him once when i was a senior in highschool.

#113 sorry about ur father, but thats no excuse
growin up fast don’t mean givin up you lil ass. that aint all grown ups do
please believe me you was trick you said you did it for the cash cause you had to get urs.

never gave haed to a man i didn’t like. huh.
you 14 u shouldn’t been dealing with no men period. and the only thing you shoulda been sucking was your teeth when you didn’t get your math problem right.
man you don’t get it, again, where’s yo mama?

glad u in college, still tricking though. man paying your tuition. ever considered working p/t, or financial aid, or student loans? might be tuff on you shawty but at least you dont have to sell ur soul for the degree.

see if you cant get some extra credits in self esteem while u there. bet he wont pay for that

Uhhh # 103,

14 year olds SHOULD be into video games and not sex.

14 is kinda young!!!!!!!!!!

I’m so happy he’s finally been released. The only reason they put him in jail is because the girl was white.

uh. no she wasn’t

Thank goodness! I hope that the justice system wakes up now. I remember watching a talk show some 2 or so years ago, in which was a boy was talking about how charges were filed against him and he was arrested for rape for having a consensual relationship while the both of them were minors, he was just a year older than her. This needs to stop. Had the girl in both of these cases been a year older than the boy, you can bet not a darn thing would’ve happened to her.

I see we have some fast no home-training hoes on this site. It is so not cute.

First let be say that I disagree with the ruling. He served two years for his CRIME and yes it was a crime. This was what he was offered but rejected it to go to court. So he deserved all the 10 years he was sentenced to. What was a 15 year old doing at a hotel room at night? Why did this young man have so little respect for hinself that he would sleep with one girl while she was clearly pass out and another girl who thinks so little of herself that she would degrade herself in that way. Now again I asked, Where are the parents? There was nothing wrong with the law. Teenagers should not be doing those thing. This is what happens whe you let music and TV rasie your kids. Whats confusing is there are alot of post that seem to make light of the fact that 15 year old had oral sex with four 17 year olds. Thats not ok. And if you reserch the facts you will see that these so call bright young men are known for degrading girls all round the school. It that the kind of role model you want for your boys, or dating your girls? And remember AIDS is a real thing and it has no age.

And I hope that was all understand that what he did is wrong still under the law. The only change is the time sentenced, he does not have to reguester as a sex offender, he is not a felon anymore. IT IS STILL ILLEGAL TO RECEIVE ORAL SEX FROM A MINOR NO MATTER THE AGE, BUT IT IS NO LONGER A FELONY.

People forget to include the rest of the story where he and his friends had sex w/ a 17yr who was unconcious and video taped it. You don’t run a train on an unconcious person - period. The 17yr girl was alledgedly intimidated out of testifying against him for the rape charge as so many woman are, so if you ask me, he got off easy. I hope he and these young girls make better decisions in the future and I hope other young people learn from this example and think more carefully about trying to grow up so fast and emulate the wild sexual fantasies they see played out on t.v.

BTW. it wasn’t a white girl, it was two black girls.

@ 69 or whoever else thinks the female he was with was white…

SHE WAS BLACK… Him and his boys got charged with raping another 17 year old but those were eventually dropped. This 15 year old BLACK GIRL offered and performed oral you know what and that’s how he got in trouble… She wasn’t 16 so she wasn’t legally able to consent… It’s pretty lame, but on a happier note…

He’s a good looking fellow and with all this support, he’s sure to be alright even after a couple years in jail…. His life just isn’t gonna go the way he thought it would at 17….

Are you people forgetting that there was another girl at the party who was RAPED by Wilson and five other men, while she was passed out.

Did you people forget?

Did you people forget?

Now I know that some of you are going to say that were talking about this case and the case about the other girl…well I agree too that the law is messed up and the sentence was harsh for this type of case….but in the end I think the 2 yrs Wilson served was Karma for what he and the five other guys did to the other girl (the one that everyone else forgot out) that night…..FYI the other girl said she never consented to having sex with six boys while passed out and being videotaped during the process.

I hope Wilson learned his lesson through all this and I wish him the best in the future.

@ 94
eVERY Kid is not having sex, there are some out there who think more of themself , their bodies and their health. We need to do a better job with our kids. As soon as this story first hit I took my son aside and talkk to him about self respect. Ophra turns around and give tis boy a free ride to school. what is that say to the youth. I promise that there are boys who are not having sex with drunk girls and doing well in school that look at this and say thats what he gets.

And Oprah aint going to have him on her show….

# 52

you are wrong. Both acts were illegal, but oral carried a mandatory 10 year sentence, which is why the other four boys took pleas

He better go to college after this and he about to get paiddddd

wow…how do they come off doing that? how did they even get away with it? i mean she was two years younger wowwww how bad. smh

♥terrena

PEOPLE HE HAS NO GROUNDS TO SUE. HE WAS CONVICTED OF A CRIME THAT HE WAS FOUND GUITLY OF. WHICH HE DID. THE ONLY CHANGE IS HE HAS TIME SERVED SO HE WILL NOT BE ON PAPERS WHEN HE GET OUT. THE LAW STILL STANDS. THE ONLY CHANGE IS THAT IT IS NOT A FELONY AND MAX TIME IS ONE YEAR PRISON TIME AND ONE YEAR ON PAPERS AND NO SEX OFFENDER LABEL. NOW THIS ALSO MEANS THAT THEY HAVE TO LOOK INTO ALL THE SEX OFFENDERS CASES CONVICTED OF THE CRIME “JUST ORAL SEX WITH A MINOR” AS SOME OF YOU STATED. cONRADS GA YOU JUST CLEARED THE WAY FOR YOUNG OFFENDER TO DO IT LONGER.

It’s sad that they put a 17 year old BOY in jail full of sharks; more than 2 years of him being young is gone. It makes no sense, she was 15 and 17. They’re kids. Also reportedly, she gave a hanful of guys heads so maybe, she should have been convicted of prostitution. I hope he can be stonger and get good of this B.S. unfortunate event. If you go to b-o-s-s-i-p’s website, you’ll see a new pic of him and it looks like prision turned him ‘out.’ When I first saw the pic, I thought the story was on a gay man so I’m guessing he got raped which is disgusting. To me this case boils down to race especially since it’s in the South. So sad. I will pray for him.

woahh im madd they were about to keep him there for 10 years!! and for getting some neck? jeeeezus

THANK GOD!! im so glad for him and his family….. GOD IS GOOD… i know his mom’s will be cooking for Thanksgiving and Christmas fo’ sho!! i wish Him well.

CORRECTION..He was incarcerated for four years. Thank GOD he is a free man.

@#22 Yes she was White.

Bout damn time…that sentence was ridiculous…..

laughs at #6

but didn’t da 15 year old wanted to have sex wit him too?

Some of yall r gettin confused. OK, THERE WAS 2 GIRLS INVOLV ED. ONE WAS WHITE, THE OTHER WAS BLACK. HE GAVE ANAL (CONSENSUAL) TO THE BLACK ONE. SHE THEN LATER ACCUSED HIM OF RAPE, BUT AFTER SEEING THE TAPE, THOSE CHARGES WERE DROPPED. HOWEVER, HE WAS STILL CHARGED WITH GETTING HEAD FROM THE WHITE GIRL, CAUSE SUPPOSEDLY ITS STATATORE RAPE. OK, COMPRENDO, THE WHITE GIRL, HEAD, THE BLACK ONE, ANAL, COMPRENDO?

LOL @ 141, thanks for clearing that up

@ 134
it’s not about race it is about people who prey on kids. If he were white I’m guessing he would have taken the deal like the other four boys.

@ 137

He spent 2 years in prison. the other two years was trial time which dose not count. its not the state of GA’s fault that the boy committed a crime and couldnt pay his bail

In response to a petition of habeas corpus filed by Wilson’s attorneys, the Superior Court of Monroe County in the State of Georgia reduced Wilson’s charge to misdemeanor aggravated child molestation, ordered that his name not be placed on the sex-offender registry, and resentenced him to 12 months and with credit for time served. Stated Judge Thomas Wilson, “The fact that Genarlow Wilson has spent two years in prison for what is now classified as a misdemeanor, and without assistance from this Court, will spend eight more years in prison, is a grave miscarriage of justice.”[15]

Georgia’s Attorney General Thurbert Baker, an African American, has appealed Judge Wilson’s decision, staying Genarlow Wilson’s release. Baker maintains the judge did not have the authority to overturn the conviction and says there is a plea bargain offer on the table.[16]

According to Baker, the plea deal could allow Genarlow Wilson to be eligible for First Offender Treatment, which would mean that he would not have a criminal record nor would he be subject to registering on the sex offender registry once his sentence had been completed. It could also result in Genarlow Wilson receiving a reduced sentence, possibly leading to his release based upon time already served. Genarlow Wilson’s lawyer, B.J. Bernstein, would not accept the proposed deal because it would require her client to plead guilty to a felony with a fifteen year sentence; thus Genarlow would be forced to register as a sexual offender for up to fifteen years.

This is the same deal offer before he went to trial.

wow JUST 4-3…….WTF…..the voted shouldn’t even have been THAT close…….. he was 17 a teenager and she was a teenager too…..if he was 18 then it’d have been different….. you get sentenced 10 years for being a TEENAGE MINOR getting head from another teenage minor?!

He deserves BIG MONEY for everyday he spent in jail. Their hot asses (I sound like a old woman lol) had no business all sucking on each other let alone videotaping it and let alone doing all that up in some damn hotel at their age and while it may have been wrong but it wasn’t criminal!

@ 134, that would be such a shame if he had to endure that type of shit in there. He is kind of small, so it ain’t that much fighting he can do. I was reading the story on CNN and I’m lmao @ his lawyer’s name…B.J., smh.

Thank God he is out and I hope he can get his life back on track by making better decisions.
Ummm….I dont know where some of you got your info from but the girl was white. She could have said she consented all day long but in Ga the legal age of consent is 16 so technically she really didnt have consent to give. The really messed up part is if he had just had intercourse with her it would have been a misdemeanor and not a felony.
@chillin in ny
They did not gang rape that other girl. She was visibly drunk but she was not unconscious and did not say no or stop. They tried to charge them but the tape did not prove what they were told by the second girl to be true. If the tape showed what you stated they would not have needed her to testify so I doubt the intimidation rumor.
That case was damn near retarded and it only punished the male when the female initiated the act. She may have been a victim but she was not his victim. She was a victim way before she walked into that hotel room. She was a victim of neglect, low self esteem,self hatred, and non existent parenting.

ummm who named their son genarlow??

damn……

ok…done…

That is REAL good news! Im happy to hear that!

While I’m happy that he’s free, I’m wondering if he will still have to register as a sex offender. The artictle didn’t say. And further, this doesn’t vacate his conviction but reduces it and simply put says he served his time for the criminal act he was convicted of. I wonder how much of a life he will actually have.

But glad that he is out of jail because the sentence w/the circumstances just did not equal up.
