Babysitter who had 'sex' with 11-year-old boy gets suspended sentence

Story here. Excerpt:
'A judge has been criticised after deciding not to imprison a 21-year-old babysitter who admitted sexual activity with the 11-year-old boy she was looking after.
Judge Tim Mousley QC gave Jade Hatt a suspended jail term for the offence, committed in November 2014 when she was 20.
Mousley said she was immature, while the boy was mature for his age, and he felt able to step outside normal sentencing guidelines.
He said: “Having read everything before me, it was quite clear he was a mature 11-year-old and you were an immature 20-year-old so that narrows the arithmetic age gap between you.”
The judge also took into account that the boy’s father spoke up for Hatt in court, claiming his son was “fully up for the experience”. However, the boy said he knew what had happened was wrong and he said he had not enjoyed it.'

According to the article, the
According to the article, the father also had previous sex with the 20 year old babysitter.
The father describes his 11 year old son to the judge as "sex mad" "fully up for the experience" and "totally unaffected by it"
Sounds like the father may not be fit to be raising his son. Also, you would think that when a judge gets a case like this, they would see the red flags and step up and do the right thing. Unfortunately everyone seems to be failing this child.
