Ex-Ravens cheerleader sentenced to 48 weekends in jail in rape case

Link here. Excerpt:

'A Delaware judge on Friday sentenced former Baltimore Ravens cheerleader Molly Shattuck to two years of probation for the sexual assault of a 15-year-old boy, calling the case a difficult one and saying the socialite has already suffered great public humiliation.

Shattuck, who pleaded guilty to the rape charge, will serve 48 weekends in jail for the term of the probation. Prosecutors said the mother of three performed oral sex on the teenager, who attended McDonogh School in Owings Mills with her son."I take full responsibility for what I did," Shattuck, 48, said in between sobs as she stood before Judge E. Scott Bradley. "I was the adult."
...
The judge sentenced Shattuck to 15 years in prison — the maximum sentence for the charges — with all but two years suspended.

"It's not a walk in the park," defense attorney Eugene Maurer told reporters outside the courthouse. He called the sentence fair.

"(The judge) is punishing her ... while at the same time not punishing her children," he said.

Shattuck will serve her time at the Violation of Probation Center in Georgetown, Del. The sentence begins the first weekend of September.

Other charges against Shattuck were dropped in her plea agreement. In addition to her sentence, Shattuck is required to register as a sex offender in Maryland and Delaware and cannot be around anyone under the age of 18, except for her children. She will also pay more than $10,000 in restitution to the family.'

... if a man gets probation vs. a jail sentence-- possibly b/c men actually get jail sentences for stat. rape vs. probation, which is what women get.
