Glad I'm not a lawyer
Stories like this about a 40-year old guy and child sex in a foreign country makes me glad I'm not a lawyer. I can't imagine being his lawyer and needing to try to argue that his client somehow isn't a cockroach because he was a cockroach in another country that doesn't define cockroaches in the same way this country does.
Apparently, his lawyer has decided to not try to deny the charges. I guess the video evidence is just too conclusive. No, his lawyer feels it makes more sense to challenge whether Canada has a right to charge a citizen of this country for sexually exploiting children in another country.
Bakker's lawyer, Kevin McCullough, said while Canadians would agree sex with children is abhorrent, Canada has no right to impose its laws on people while they are in another country.
I kind of agree with that. Except for one small detail. The sick son-of-a-bitch came home. Tough break, Donny. You're going to jail.
