Huh. Looks like it's OK to screw underage girls in Italy so long as it sounds like you might actually feel something for them.
A 34-year-old Italian man who had sex with a 13-year-old girl has had his sentence cut by a two-thirds because a court decided there was "real love" between the pair.
Antonio de Pascale, a butcher from Vicenza, admitted that he had a four-month long relationship with the girl, who sent him a stream of torrid text messages on his mobile phone.
His lawyers argued, however, that there was a "deep tenderness" between him and the girl and that he had "fallen head over heels in love" after a sexual encounter in his car. They said the girl had consented to every action.
Hey, since when is Roman Polanski an Italian judge? Is there nothing that man can't do? Other than step on American soil, we mean. Ha, ha, we kid. But seriously: we find this kind of unsettling. What to do about it... give us a minute... Got it!
