City worker charged after explicit texts found on teen's phone
By Scott E. Williams, The Daily News, khou.com

GALVESTON — A city hall worker faces a charge that could carry a term of up to life in prison stemming from allegations of sexual assaults involving a 13-year-old boy.

The boy was in class last week at Central Middle School, 3014 Sealy Ave., when a teacher caught him sending text messages on his cell phone, police said.

School officials noticed a sexually explicit message on the phone’s display screen and contacted police after finding a series of such messages from an outside number, police said. The boy’s messages in response reportedly were brief and were not explicit, police said.

The boy later told investigators about four sexual encounters he had with a woman with whom he had been staying, police said. Police said the text messages on the boy’s phone had traced back to a phone listed as belonging to the same woman.

1. I spent the entire Summer of my thirteenth year having all manner of sex...
with the neighbor of my Aunt and Uncle.

I knew exactly what I was doing, and so did she. And she was thirty years old.

To this day, I just cannot accept the idea that a crime was committed.

4. I am sure a little sex harmed that boy for life...
I think they should just take every woman that wants to have sex and put them away for life. Everyone knows how much harm is done to teen age boys when it comes to sex...:crazy:

5. There is a sizeable contingent on DU that actually believes that.
That those poor teenage boys who got laid by someone over 18 are severely traumatized.

6. The Only Thing That Informs "Consent"
...In a 13 year old is hormones. They don't grow brains the moment they have an erection or lubricate. Whereas a 30-year-old adult is relied upon to know better and not "consent" to sex with a minor.

Minor. Person otherwise assumed incapable of making potentially life-changing decisions for themselves.

Teenagers need sexual release, but not with the equivalent of their parents or grandparents.

Reverse the genders and somehow people think it's different or worse. It's not; it's the same with the exception of which way one possible consequence turns.

These are just blindingly horny or easily/eagerly led boys and girls, and sick, manipulative, sexually needy adult f**ks.
