18-year-old Florida Teen Kaitlyn Hunt Arrested and Expelled From High School Over Gay Relationship; Charges Pressed By Her Girlfriend’s Homophobic Parents

In a modern day Romeo and Juliet family feud, a family has been torn apart by the homophobia of their daughter’s girlfriends parents who pressed “lewd and lascivious battery” felony charges on her after finding out about their gay relationship. Earlier this school year, Florida’s Sebastian River High School senior Kaitlyn Hunt, who at the time was 17, began a relationship with her classmate, a 15-year old girl.

On February 16, Police arrived at the family’s home and put her daughter in handcuffs, charged with two felony counts of lewd and lascivious battery on a child 12–16 years of age, according to Examiner.

“These people never came to us as parents, never tried to speak to us… and tell us they had a problem with the girls dating,” Kaitlyn Hunt’s mother, Kelley Hunt-Smith, wrote in a statement posted to Facebook. “…They were out to destroy my daughter. [They] feel like my daughter ‘made’ their daughter gay.”

It is a bit of a misleading headline. She wasn't arrested for being gay.

Florida statute:

A child under 16 years of age cannot consent to sexual activity, regardless of the age of the defendant.[189] A child who is at least 16 years of age and less than 18 years of age cannot consent to sexual activity if the defendant is 24 years of age or older.[190]

She was not arrested and expelled "just for being gay". She was arrested and expelled for lewd and lascivious battery, which the state of FL defines as: "Sexual activity[194] with someone more than 12 years of age and less than 16 years of age." Note that there is no mention in the law to distinguish one way or the other per same-sex trysts.

Apparently the law states that someone over 16 can consent to sex, someone 15 can't. So you do not have sex between two consenting adults, per the definition of the law.

So by "nice" is the OP admitting to be a fan of underage lesbians? Would you describe it as a hobby or a passion?

I read the OP and the link and everything said she was 15.

The OP has taken gay rights to the point of pedophilia. Not nice.

Lesbihonest. The thread title is a bit misleading.

It would appear the article did a bit of mathematical magic. It seems they listed the age of the defendant when it started, but the age of the victim when it was outed.

The video said she was 14 when it began

 

[Spartacavolus]

You can't be lesbian until you are 18 anyway.

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Kaitlyn Hunt has an uncle named Andrew Gay.....funny that.

Is there any doubt what would have happened if senior was male?

And apparently he frequents the Gaily Grind.

 

[Septic]

Title should read "Parents of Florida Lesbian are Douchebags"

Quality.

 

[McDad]

Are we consenting to an adult (18+) having sexual relations with a child (17-)??? I would crotch kick a male or female 18 year old who did this to my girl, who is 15.

The hot one is 18

Well actually, story is over a year old, so she's 19 now. The case is still unresolved though.

This is fodder for the homosexual/pedophile comparisons, analogies. Dumb.

I wouldn't say OP is misleading so much as it is intentionally controversial. C'mon guys, I used punctuation and everything.

Punctuating made up things still makes them made up.

It was misleading, and the article was an editorial hack job, painting pictures of romeo and juliet, while referencing 'homophobia' as opposed to Florida law and pedophilia.

It was the ultimate failure at every level until 9:46 tonight.
