Hey, Mr. W ... Do you think it would make a difference for Sis to just mention it to the prosecutor in HER case? Something along the lines of prosecuting ALL of the felons in this case ....? My guess is that WH and OW both already admitted their relationship when the first incident happened.
Would it have any effect on her sentencing?
Just thinking....
Doubt it. It's irrelevant....just like the "everybody else is doing it defense" HOWEVER I'm not a criminal lawyer so who knows. It's not like she's up against time in jail...it's merely a slap on the wrist and she's already plead guilty. The case is OVER.
BTW, I got an email from good ole Jimm5... that indicated the Statute of Limitations appears to be 6 years in Michigan....meaning they could go back and prosecute old adulterers if they were so inclined. But trust me...that AIN'T gonna happen anytime soon. They would need at least ONE solid unsympathetic test case with rock solid proof first before any Prosecutor in Michigan is going after random waywards.
The way this all actually could likely end up being tested is when someone gets actually charged with Sexual Criminal Conduct (caught doing something in semi-public with their mistess) and they try to weasel out of it saying it was consentual and being carried out in private. The crafty Prosecutor MAY then just end up saying "so what" ... it's adultery, which is a felony and we can prosecute you for CSC 1 anyway". Then the case makes it's way up the Appeals ladder and hopefully sticks (which I doubt).
