After reading it id say the judge made the right call. The guy thought she was an adult after all she had her car and claimed to have her own place. They met on Tinder where she claimed she was an adult. He had no indications she was underage the only thing I can think he could have done was to check her ID but I don't know anyone that does that on a date.

Like someone mentioned, will ID verification be needed in the future?
I'm sure facial recognition and EID will be mandatory for these apps in the future.

So if she was older the rape is ok with you?

Mascall did not groom and exploit the girl and he did not use force, she added, but because of her age she could not consent.
Your statement is implying that he was not aware it was illegal for him to have sex with a 12 year old, but that's not exactly the issue here. He didn't know she was 12. He had no reason to suspect that she was lying about her age.

How many people do I need to point to who claimed to be ignorant of the law, but are still rotting in prison anyway to prove your argument is not an actual defense?

So if she was older the rape is ok with you? Or are you saying the rape itself shouldn't count because she acted suggestively?
Im trying to figure out what flavor crazy you are.
I’ll tell you first hand some 12 year olds look 20 something.

I assume that since she's still a minor, then there isn't any picture of her currently available. Without a picture, I don't really think that any of us are capable of reaching an accurate definitive stance on this particular matter.

I think everyone really needs to read the story. “Rape” was the word used because she was underage, which the man did not know, and had no way of knowing.
Mascall did not groom and exploit the girl and he did not use force, she added, but because of her age she could not consent.
