Ridiculous ruling

Pointed out to me by q10, the Italian courts are in the process of ruling that a man who raped a 14-year-old girl should get a lighter sentence because she had already been sexually active. That's abso-fucking-lutely insane! What if her previous sexual activity had also been rape? Would the second rapist get off more easily? That's blame the victim! It's like saying if I steal someone's car, but it's not the first car they owned, I should be let off the hook. *grr*
