He will be out in less than 3 years...............
A little web searching turned up multiple articles stating something to the effect that
"The Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) conducted the investigation which reported that Beaudry had sex with the victim after threatening to revoke her probation."
If that is true, it's coercion, and that makes it rape. It doesn't matter if the girl is 16 or 60 years old.
I have an 8 year old daughter who will be 16 before I know it, so I'm sort of prejudiced on this subject - if a 41 year old man touched her, especially an authority figure, no matter the circumstances, you'd have to lock him up or I'd kill him.
She may have known 'exactly what she was doing', but she's still a juvenile for a reason - he was an adult who was supposed to be responsible for himself, and others. The portion of a young adults brain that controls judgement doesn't even fully develop until after 20, so she didn't know 'exactly' what she was doing to herself. What I want to know is where was this girls Dad? I suspect broken home? What you see in her is the sad result of poor parenting. What's you buddies excuse?
Sorry, a little emotional on this subject.

No sympathy here ... Friend or no friend, he's a grown man (upper level lawman to boot), he knew it was wrong, gambled everything on a piece of tail thinking he wouldn't get caught and rolled snake eyes.
The flirty girl, her mother, his family, nothing else in the story matters. It was a very selfish act and now he has plenty of time to reflect on it.
