Italy shocked by ruling in case of 14-yr-old (ANSA) - Rome, February 17 - In a ruling that shocked the nation, Italy's highest court on Friday said raping an under-age girl who has already had sex with others is less serious than raping one who hasn't .
Upholding an appeal from a man convicted of raping his 14-year-old stepdaughter, the Cassation Court said the girl's past sexual experience amounted to "extenuating circumstances" for him .
The effect of rape on a sexually active minor is less devastating if she has lost her virginity, the court argued, because her personality "is much more developed than one would normally expect in a girl of her age" .

It should be unbelievable, but sadly, it is not. The U.S. isn't the only nation to continue to sink further into the abyss.
Right now, I am ashamed to be Italian.
