18 Months for Immigrant Who Raped 12-Year-Old
Mexican immigrant Noberto Vasquez-Fuentes has admitted having sex with a 12-year-old girl five times. He has been sentenced to 18 months in prison for second degree rape.
The defense attorney explained that a cultural difference may have prevented Fuentes from knowing he was wrong. Mexicans legally have sex with little girls as young as 12.
