Is Obstruction of Justice, Like Dildo Sex With 14-Year-Olds, ‘Healthy and Normal’?

Posted on Comments

Kaitlyn Hunt’s family says she’s a victim of homophobia.

“They are teenagers in high school experimenting with their sexuality, all teens do it in one form or another. They are teens, it’s healthy and normal.”
— Kelley Hunt Smith (Kaitlyn Hunt’s mother), May 17

“The facts as we understand them suggest that the state is prosecuting Kaitlyn for engaging in behavior that is both fairly innocuous and extremely common.”
— American Civil Liberties Union, May 21

“F–k you. . . . You’re stupid. . . . You snitched on me. God only knows what you’ll do when pressured in court.”
— Kaitlyn Hunt, May 21

“The state is further in possession of lewd and lascivious videos the defendant sent the child victim. At least one video explicitly depicts the defendant masturbating by rubbing her vagina with her fingers while moaning.”
— Christopher Taylor, Assistant State Attorney, Aug. 15

If it’s so “healthy and normal” to have sex with a 14-year-old, if this is “fairly innocuous and extremely common,” you might think everybody would support Kaitlyn Hunt. But back when this case first made headlines, when the Hunt family had convinced people that Kaitlyn was a victim of “hate and bigotry,” there was a deliberate effort to avoid the actual facts in the case. There were aggravating circumstances involved, and once people became aware of these facts, no sane person could embrace the “gay victimhood” narrative that had originally made the “Free Kate” movement such a popular cause. Does anyone else remember how her supporters hated the facts?

Once you knew the facts, you recognized that the “Free Kate” argument was constructed entirely of rationalizations and evasions — minimizing, justifying, blame-shifting — and, if all those evasions failed, claiming that it is OK, because everybody does it:

Hunt’s parents believe their daughter is being singled out because she’s in a lesbian relationship.
“I could ramble off 10, 20 other relationship(s) right now at the same high school that are freshman and senior; 14 and 18; and they’re not being prosecuted,” Hunt-Smith said.

This is just dishonest. She claims to know about “relationships” that aren’t being prosecuted, but are 14-year-olds in Indian River County routinely screwing around with adults? Is this community such a pit of moral depravity that parents of high-school freshmen do not object to their 14-year-olds doing this? Give me a break.

These aren’t arguments. These are excuses.

And so now the scofflaw hoodlums are cornered like rats:

A plea bargain offered to accused sex offender Kaitlyn Hunt has been withdrawn after Florida prosecutors say the 19-year-old lesbian violated a judge’s order not to have contact with her underage victim. WPEC-TV reported that Hunt could be arrested today, and that the 19-year-old former cheerleader’s mother Kelley Hunt Smith may also face charges in connection with the case.
Hunt was a senior at Sebastian River High School when she was arrested in February on charges that she had sex with a 14-year-old freshman girl who was a basketball teammate. Hunt was charged with two felonies; the age of consent in Florida is 16. Last week, state attorney Bruce Colton’s office filed a complaint that Hunt, who has been free on $5,000 bond awaiting trial, violated the no-contact order that was a condition of her pretrial release. . . .
A hearing on the prosecutor’s complaint has been scheduled for Tuesday, but Scott T. Smith of Palm Beach CBS affiliate WPEC-TV reported Monday “Hunt faces being returned to jail as soon as today, and her mom may also face charges.” . . .
Violating the no-contact order could mean that not only will Hunt have to wait in jail until her case goes to trial, but she and her mother could also face charges of contempt of court and obstruction of justice. . . .

  1. I was a teenager once. It’s true, I was! I did not have sex in bathroom stalls. I did not have sex with minors. I did not interfere with the custodial rights of anyone’s parents. I did not suborn perjury. I did not tamper with witnesses. I guess I was just an uptight, hateful prude.

  5. Kaitlyn Hunt = Trayvon Martin
    What else will generate the anger of the oppressive minority in time for mid-term elections?

  7. Pedophilis, MidEast policy… to a true progressive it’s the facts but how you feel about it that counts…

  17. That song makes me think of Chris “St. Tingles” Matthews praising Obama…

  28. We all speed and when we get caught we pay the fine. We don’t go to court and argue that because other people speed it’s not fair that we’ve gotten a ticket. Not all murderers are apprehended that doesn’t mean we can’t punish the ones that are caught. Dear Kate, you did this to yourself.
