If you're not counted as an adult until the age of 18 in Tn based on some diminished capacity, shouldn't that also apply in criminal cases? We prosecute 16,17 yo's all the time as adults.

Calling this 'rape' is an insult to any person that has truly been brutally violated. The government should be ashamed of themselves for wasting time and money prosecuting consensual sex in the same manner as violent rape. UNLESS they are willing to round up all of our brave TSA agents and charge them with rape....

57 years seems pretty harsh, but having been a teenage boy myself, it is very difficult for me to see much of a crime when a woman has sex with a 17 year old boy. When I was 17, I certainly wouldn't have minded if my attractive teacher sent me nude pics and had sex with me. The only way I can even imagine it being a crime is if she had given the boys STDs. Ironically, if it had been a male teacher with female students I would be furious. Guess I'm sexist.
