Answer 1

DNA evidence is hard to dispute.

If this boy caved to peer pressure, then that is his issue to deal with. It was stupid, and I do feel sorry that he wasn't secure enough to just allow them to think him chicken and walk away. It is sad that he thought that being called a chicken was worse than violating and humiliating a young girl. Where were this kids parents all of his life?? I can tell you that if the boy were me, and I had my same parents, my dad would have kicked the ever loving sh!t out of me for something like this, just before he drove my happy @$$ to the police station to turn me in. Maybe if the boy had my father he would have been too afraid of what would happen at home to go through with such a crime.

The evidence? DNA is DNA, no matter how many weeks in between the swabbings. It isn't going to change unless the evidence is compromised in some way (bleach, etc.). Though DNA evidence is very damning, DA's don't like that to be the crutch of their case. They like a confession (ultimately), but other evidence in addition to the DNA evidence is what they will go to court with. The police will work with the DA and go for more.

Answer 2

The DNA in the first test could have come up indeterminable or it may have been compromised. If he was involved his DNA would be there unless he did a lot of planning and wore a condom.

Answer 3

it doesnt matter if he was pressured into the crime he committed. he still did it. he had time to walk away but chose not to. police will have enough dna to convict. he did the crime he does the time. no he didnt have to do it, he could have walk away and reported the crime. hes has guilty as the rest of them.. why dont you ask the woman they raped how she feels. bet ya not to good right about now, show her this question then ask her how she feels.
