5 year old boy raped by 15 year old young man in Tennessee. The state of Tennessee does not view the 15 year old as a sex offender because he is not 18

That is disgusting rape is rape no matter what the age.. he should face the consequences of his actions... this five year old will probably be scarred for life.. and this is totally unfair and biased...

Yes this is disgusting but it is fact. I was shocked to learn this happens so much there is placement just for juvenile sex offenders. These places stay so full there is a waiting list just for a empty bed to place a juvenile in because of this some offenders are being released early. No one is informed when one is released and the offender is sent back to school where no one is informed of the juveniles crime. A offender is back in a school system with no adult being informed of what the or she has done. Not informing people of the juvenile being in the class room it endangers every one else in the school.
