Is that the same Kirk Kim who rode the bench for Cal in the 90s?

More importantly, if the perp were a man, there is NO WAY you would have been so flip about this.

Shit. No. Brain not working today. I did wonder why "sapphic" was used. My mistake.

Eight years? Doesn't a statute of limitations come into play here?

The kid was a girl, which is why "Sapphic" was used. And the P.E. teacher joke.

I agree with Christine. 13 is a kid.13 year olds don't have "steamy, sapphic affairs" with 33 year olds. If the kid was a girl, everyone would automatically call it child molestation, rape, etc. and that's what this is.

I don't know, Brock. I think this situation is more statutory rape than "steamy, sapphic affair."

At age 13, that's less an affair than an exploitation at best (molestation at worst).
