... "Carter was almost 17 when he was convicted of first-degree criminal sexual conduct against a 10-year-old girl. He was steadfast in declaring his innocence and refused sex offender therapy, which hurt his chances for an earlier parole. He was released from prison in 2008."
"Police in recent months learned that a man had coerced the girl and her mother to blame Carter for the 1991 assault because of an unpaid debt."
"'Grand Rapids Police Department — they are to blame, not me, not the victims,' Carter said. '... It was your job to figure out did I do it or not, but you didn’t do your job.'" ... |

Why is it so hard to report simply and accurately?
If he was "almost 17" when wrongly convicted, that means he was 16. Why can't you just say:
"Carter was 16 when he was convicted of first-degree criminal sexual conduct against a 10-year-old girl." |

TO REMEMBER |
| By calling attention to a well-regulated militia for the security of the Nation, and the right of each citizen to keep and bear arms, our Founding Fathers recognized the essentially civilian nature of our economy. Although it is extremely unlikely that the fears of governmental tyranny, which gave rise to the second amendment, will ever be a major danger to our Nation, the amendment still remains an important declaration of our basic military-civilian relationships, in which every citizen must be ready to participate in the defense of the country. For that reason I believe the second amendment will always be important. --JOHN F. KENNEDY |
