Stacey Rambold, a Senior High teacher convicted of raping 14-year-old Cherice Morales, who later committed suicide, was sentenced to spend just 30 days in jail. The judge justified his decision in part by saying he listened to recorded statements given by Morales before her death and believes that while she was a troubled youth, she was "as much in control of the situation" as Rambold.

Yeah, that (the article) pretty much sums up my opinion on the whole thing. Which is good because I just about went into a blind rage when the verdict was made public.
