HE'S WHITE
A Massachusetts student accused of raping two unconscious 18-year-olds will not face jail time or have to register as a sex offender.
David Becker was sentenced to two years of probation by a judge who said that his case would be continued without a finding until August 2018.
The 18-year-old will not have to register as a sex offender.
He denied touching one of the young women and thought that what he did to the other victim was fine because she "did not stop" him.
Prosecutors recommended two years in prison after charging him with rape.
One of the victims said that she had heard of Becker assaulting others and being called “David the Rapist.”
“We all made mistakes when we were 17, 18, 19 years old, and we shouldn't be branded for life with a felony offense and branded a sex offender,” Attorney Thomas Rooke said. The lawyer also brought attention to the fact that his client was a three-sport athlete, did community service and wants to go on to have “a college experience.”
