I would feel like she was a worthless whore, and rightfully so.

neither you nor I know what the video showed. He would have been an observer, keeping watch while the other guy did what he did.
The law is REALLY clear in this case and has been since long before you or I. You f around with a minor, you get in trouble - regardless if it was forced or not.
If there is video and the police have that video, the DA charges according to what they think will stick.
In Baton Rouge, everyone knows it is LSU Football first, so it is VERY likely this wasn't a voluntary activity on her part since they charged what they charged.
It is real clear REGARDLESS of what you or I might think. AND the parents of the girl have nothing wo do with this. it is the DA's office that filed the charges based on evidence from the school. Once the evidence was presented to the DA, they had to file the charges.
There is 2 relevant laws:
1. Oral Sexual Battery or Statutory Rape.
Since there was no "sexual intercourse" involved - thanks Bill Clinton - then it is Oral Sexual Battery.

quote:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
C.(1) Whoever commits the crime of oral sexual battery shall be punished by imprisonment, with or without hard labor, without benefit of parole, probation, or suspension of sentence, for not more than ten years.

(2) Whoever commits the crime of oral sexual battery on a victim under the age of thirteen years when the offender is seventeen years of age or older shall be punished by imprisonment at hard labor for not less than twenty-five years nor more than ninety-nine years. At least twenty-five years of the sentence imposed shall be served without benefit of parole, probation, or suspension of sentence.

(3) Upon completion of the term of imprisonment imposed in accordance with Paragraph (2) of this Subsection, the offender shall be monitored by the Department of Public Safety and Corrections through the use of electronic monitoring equipment for the remainder of his natural life.
