This is why I disagree with stringent sentencing guidelines. I guess I'm supposed to assume that since he was found guilty there was enough evidence of rape to justify it, but I think his sentence completely depends on his demeanor in court and a variety of other factors. I voted "fixed sentence with counseling," because that could be anywhere from one year to 25 years. In a more clear-cut case of aggravated rape, I'd be willing to commit to a much more clear-cut punishment.
