Because Prewitt dropped the rape charge in order to get him to drop t his claim to custody/visitation rights.

I'm not trying to start a fight, I'm just asking. Why would she do that? I don't know the law but I'm assuming (maybe wrongly) that if he were found guilty of rape he wouldn't have visitation rights? (or did I miss the whole point of the article which is those guilty of rape still can get custody rights?)

Yes, the whole point of the article is that in 31 states those guilty of rape can still get custody rights.

Is that what was said? Obviously that's the only point that matters to you, needledick. Why, for all we know, Prewitt is lying about being raped, right?

The guy ADMITTED it. That's how we know he's actually guilty, needledick.

Read and learn.

He didn't go to jail because she dropped the charges. She dropped the charges in exchange for him forfeiting any right to custody or visitation.

I'm not understanding why she dropped the charges. The scumbag wouldn't have any rights behind bars would he? He's the one guilty of rape why should she have to give in to him?

Obviously she lives in one of those 31 states and KNEW that being guilty of rape wouldn't prevent him from having custody/visitation rights.

No. I re-read the article and I see nothing that says he was found guilty of rape.

C'mon Cawacko, did you miss my red highlighted text? He admitted what he did and used custody as a bargaining chip.

His offer, “I’ll leave you alone and let go of the custody thing as long as you don’t try to prosecute me for what I did”

Because she lived in one of the 31 states where the custody law was on the books.

I'm confused, I thought you wanted to assert that rape babies should be flushed, if the sperm provider(rapists aren't fathers) wants to raise the kid, isn't that a solution all round?

In what way? The man should be in prison, how would he "raise" the child?
