Dad Slugs Man Who Offers Money To Girl For Sex
POSTED: 8:20 a.m. EST February 13, 2004

YORK, Pa. -- What would you do if a man offered to pay your teenage daughter for sex while she was shopping?

Jimmy Hunt punched the man in the face. Prosecutors in York charged Hunt with disorderly conduct and simple assault. But they later dropped the charges after concluding that no jury would convict him. [...]



What kind of person would be stupid enough to go up to a teenage girl and say something like that in front of her dad?

[Caffeine King]

He would of done what any other dad would've done.

[Delthayre]

Well, I can't speak for that perspective very personally, but I can hardly blame the father. Although knowing these days, he'll probably get busted for assault.

In total, it unsettles the stomach and the mind to contemplate such.

[Tienshin]

I bet the dad did a double take, before thinking to himself...

"Self? There is no way I just heard what I think heard. No way! He didn't just say that. He couldn't have said that. OMG...:mad: ...HE TOTALLY WENT THERE!"

*Blasts weirdo sex solicitor in face*

[Xada-Hgla]

Well, there's no question (at least, in my mind) that what the guy who solicted the girl did was wrong purely on the face of it. One has to wonder on the outcome though, had the girl been 18 instead of 17 (Of course, since money was intended to change hands, there would still be prostitution charges to deal with...)

[RogueMartian]

I don't care if the girl is 14, 17, or 37. If anybody goes up to a random girl soliciting sex they deserve to get slugged. A good punch in the nose will make sure he thinks twice before doing something that stupid again.

[Mackenzie Rainelle]

::imagines what her dad would have done in that situation:: O_O;;; There would have been more than a 'disorderly conduct' on that one. More like 'assault and battery'. No one would be able to recognize the guy afterward.

[zmanjz]

LOL

I'm from york, and that Jury Nullification would result is an understatement. In this area, the father could have beaten him within an inch of his life, and he still would have gotten off scott free.

but given the mitegating circumstances and the lack of a weapon, simple assault would have been the correct charge, if physical harm resulted.

If the nose wasn't even broken, then Disorderly conduct would have been appropriate.


I wonder which DA made the decision... Probably Mr. Rebert.

[SilverKnight]

Damn right. My dad would've done the same thing...and probably everyone else in my family, too... Hell, if I'd been that girl, I probably would've jacked him in his jaw for that.

"I'm flattered, but... >POP!< No, thanks. Freak."

:D

[Jedigreedo]

They should give the father an award for holding back. I would've grabbed my pocket knife and made sure the idiot wouldn't have a reason to ask for sex anymore. ;)

[Youko Recca]

Now THIS is right up my ally!If I had even overheard that I would have gladly helped the dad out by lending a couple hundred punches!Man I love this!:D

[Obi]

Good for the dad.

I have a friend who grew up in Japan, and according to her that type of behavior is common there. She told me guys approach high school students offering money for sex. If the girls agree, they go to a hotel with the men, get their money, then have sex. She is 19 now and only went to school in Japan until she was 12, but I'd imagine things like that still happen.

Being as this is not Japan and I am not Japanese, I think offering any girl money for sex is wrong. I think prostitution is ok, but offering an unsuspecting 17 year-old money for that is completely immoral. I wonder what his (the solicitor's) exact words were...?

I think how the father responded was right, but not quite my style. I would have kicked the guy in the nuts, then when he bent over I would have pulled his head down and put my knee in his face. Then I would have taken his money.

[Master Moron]

Something tells me we're only hearing part of the story. Why would a man purposely go up to a girl when she was with his father. Did he think he was his pimp? Did they know each other? something seems fishy...

It's full of euphemisms, but yes, it happens. The man wouldn't say, "Here, take this money and have sex with me," but rather, "Go spend this," and assume it's understood.

Being as this is not Japan and I am not Japanese, I think offering any girl money for sex is wrong.

And you think it's OK in Japan? No girl should have to be put in the situation of having to deal with a man her father's age telling her to have sex with him. You think they come out of these experiences fine and well-adjusted just because they're Japanese?

[Youko Recca]

Man do I need to go to Japan......

Yeah, "Telephone Clubs" (as I remember hearing them called) were (and probably still are) very popular.

[TimTwoFace]

w00t! Go Dad! He has every right to do that - hell, I'd hope the daughter got a good punch in there, too. That sort of thing is just classless and is most easily thwarted with a good slugging between the eyes.

[Cogliostro]

Good for the dad, I swear I hate it when people are prosecuted, arrested or whatever for protecting innocence, honor, pride and so on. This country was built from people who protected, defended and fought for those things and now these days if you defend your honor or so on you are arrested, while the guy that deserves/needed to be attacked gets nothing but probably his medical bills paid by you. This country is going to hell in a hand bag *goverment intervention* (Well hell is associated with the Christian religion and to keep that from offending anyone we will change it to "a very bad place" and that isn't a hand bag it's a weather balloon...and also change "This nation" to "This body of anti-terrorism, anti-WoD people") *insterting ad* (Vote Bush!)


*No I dont want you to Vote Bush, if you didnt get it forget it.

[PaQ]

I'm with the dad on this one. I would've done the same thing. That's pretty shameful and immoral what that stranger did...

He definitely deserved what the dad did to him.

[tigerrunner]

That sick pervert had it coming to him. I'm surprised that the father didn't happen to do more than just punch him. I'm a pacifist, but even I would pound a guy into a pulp if he did something like that (and i'm just imagining what it would be like. I'm still in high school. I'm sure I would be much more specific if I was older and actually had a daughter).

[cowboyardee]

I DO have a teenage daughter, and I WOULD have beaten the snot out of the guy for that. But even better....

my daughter would have beaten me to the punch. Nobody insults her and gets away with it.

(proud papa) :D

[AnimatedSnow47]

What kind of person goes up to someone asking for intimate relations?

I, mean, come on! Obviously this guy was not taught to respect the opposite sex and put them on the pedastal.

As for the dad, good for you!

[Leaping Larry Jojo]

On the other hand, suppose the guy has seen the girl before, soliciting what he wants? Maybe the girl is doing things behind her parents' back.

I'm not saying it's not a random occurrence, but it's also not out of the realm of possibility.

In all likelyhood, it's probably some drunk guy being a total idiot.

You would think though, that something like that would have been brought up at trial. Reading the article however, it doesn't seem like the solicitor put up much of a defense (if any at all).:shrug:

And you think it's OK in Japan? No girl should have to be put in the situation of having to deal with a man her father's age telling her to have sex with him. You think they come out of these experiences fine and well-adjusted just because they're Japanese?Do you really think those places would exist if none of the girls wanted it? My friend also told me girls want to do it because they want the money. Not every country views sex the same way, and not every individual does either. The guys ask because they know some girls do it (by choice). They are only taking advantage of a service. It's a mutual exchange. I don't like the idea of young girls doing that, but it's their choice.

As for your question... no, I don't. I think it's wrong anywhere. But I am not Japanese, so I have no right to call something that is a part of their culture wrong. That would be like saying there is something wrong with the Netherlands because prostitution is legal there. I don't care what people choose to do with their lives, because every person should be allowed the choice.

Is it really? I wonder. Not that I've had the experience myself, but it seems like something a girl gets frightened into doing. How free is a choice when you're a high school girl and a forty year-old man asks you to have sex with him?

It also seems to me that sort of thing can start with a man asking and a girl agreeing because she wants to rebel. Then, once she starts, she can't stop because she's threatened or afraid.

If it's wrong everywhere, but one culture doesn't have a "right" to argue it's wrong to another culture, then what is the law for? If the law isn't to stop things that are wrong, what is the purpose behind it? To perpetuate a "culture?" I have every right to stick up for people who are being wronged no matter what race or culture they happen to come from.

[Ajax]

Congrats to the Dad, their was no crime, he did what any other dad would done in his position.
As for me, if anybody would of gone up and ask that to my daughter(if I had one) it would of been the last thing they ever said.

Now you're just going to far.

I always thought laws were for personal protection. I mean, it's obviously wrong to pick your nose and stick gum under desks, but should it be illegal? It's also wrong when a guy tells a girl he loves her just so he can get sex from her, but should that be illegal?

No, it's not illegal for a man to stroll up and ask a girl for sex, but it also should not be illegal for her, or her father, to actively indicate the word "no" by punching the fool's lights out.

First off, there's money involved here. Secondly, as I said before, it's a social problem in which girls are intimidated into agreeing to these things. They deserve protection from that.
