* (TW: Rape) A judge has given a teacher who raped a fourteen year old girl, who killed herself as a result, only 30 days in jail, since the judge believes the dead girl was equally responsible for her own rape.

I'm still digesting Struck by Lightening and the Seventh Seal. (Look, my viewing habit are pretty eclectic.) I've started season 2 Misfits nevertheless. Damn that show really points out how less diverse and generally lower quality so most US based superhero fare is. Why can't we have things like this over here?
