On Nov. 26, 2014, in Grand Rapids, MI, Abigail Simon (a former math tutor at a Catholic high school) was convicted at trial of three counts of “first-degree criminal sexual conduct,” a felony with a maximum sentence of 25-years to life in prison and a mandatory minimum of 8-25 years, for allegedly having sex with a male student who, according to her testimony in court and statements to SVU detectives and prosecutors when interrogated, was not only the aggressor in their sexual intrigue but also forced himself on her 3 times and “controlled her life” by threats and manipulation; and also the felony of “accosting a minor for immoral purposes” for exchanging hundreds of emails and text messages with her “victim,” a 6’3″, 220 lb. biological man of 15 and football star who initially confessed to authorities and also testified under oath at a pretrial hearing that Abigail’s version of what occurred was true but later recanted and claimed not only that he didn’t force himself on her but also that she was the initiator of their liaison and controlled the action and relationship. She told the authorities and testified in court that she responded to his hundreds of emails and text-messages to keep him away from her because she didn’t want to have sex with him and was afraid of him for the reasons above.
So what occurred, exactly? Who is telling the truth and who is lying? Only one of them or both to some degree? Only Abigail and her “victim,” nameless and faceless, know the answers, And I’m sure their memories, and interpretations of same, differ.
According to a man who believed her testimony and was thus sympathetic to Abigail, commenting on the internet after her conviction, he recanted and changed his story after being threatened with charges of rape by prosecutors who were 100% certain that Abigail was “guilty” and wanted to prosecute her not only for “accosting a minor for immoral purposes,” a felony with a maximum-sentence of 4-years in prison and other mandatory punishments, but also “first-degree criminal sexual conduct.”
On Jan. 14, 2015, the judge was “merciful,” imposing the mandatory-minimum sentence of “only” 8-25 years in prison and a lifetime of electronic parole-monitoring with an ankle tether/”bracelet and public sex-offender registration. He conceded that she was not a “predator” who was likely to “re-offend” by having sex with another young man under statutory age much less commit violent and other mala in se crimes, and that her “victim” also knew that their intrigue was “wrong” and was thus “partly responsible,’ even if he didn’t rape her and “control her life” by threats and manipulation. Thus he was not a CSA victimologist, fanatical and dogmatic, at her sentencing. (This would later change, as we’ll see, for whatever reasons.) But he had no choice, no “discretion” to impose a sane and “just” and rational and proportionate sentence, a sentence that would blight but not destroy her life.
Even if he had such discretion, however, he probably would have sentenced her to 4-6 years in prison if not longer rather than “only” 6-12 months in jail or 1-2 years in prison, knowing the hysteria and outrage that such “leniency” would provoke not only in Grand Rapids and Michigan but nationwide: near universal condemnation, publicly and privately, indignation and rebukes and tirades from CSA victimologists, their votaries and voices in the mass media, and the tens of millions of people they’ve browbeat and/or brainwashed, including politicians, police, and prosecutors, judges and jurors. And also MRAs, the misogynist crazies and liars of the soi-disant “men’s movement,” and millions of people, overwhelmingly males of course but more females than one would expect, whom they’ve vitiated and duped to various degrees with their woman-hating vitriol and mendacity. And, probably, a fusillade and torrent of hate-mail, possibly including death threats,, and perhaps even assaults and/or vandalism.
Under the law and to many if not most people, in fantasy as opposed to reality, she was so dangerous, such a “threat to society” and all the children of Michigan, that she couldn’t be released on bond but had to be enslaved in jail for almost two months before sentencing. At her sentencing, in a drab unisex denim jumpsuit, with no makeup, her medium-brown hair in a pony-tail with the blonde “highlights” faded, in handcuffs attached to a waist-chain and leg-irons for well over 2-hours, so debilitated and mortified by fear and shame (not for her “crimes,” but the chains, the crowd, the circus, the cameras, etc.) and despair and lack of sleep that she could barely walk or even stand and almost collapsed twice, she appeared to be on the verge of a “nervous breakdown” after “only” 7-weeks in jail.
Imagine her feelings, the excruciating torment, the emotional torture, the profound and crushing debasement, the inquisitorial cruelty, the powerlessness and desperation: chained like a wild beast or a feral male criminal, a low-IQ savage and/or psychopath, big and fast and strong, violent and dangerous, and possibly deranged; shackled in handcuffs attacked to a waist-chain and leg-irons for over two hours for no exigent and practical reason, e.g., to prevent her from trying to escape and/or assaulting people, possibly causing serious injuries, and with two guards, a male and female, standing behind her, grim and vigilant, armed with guns and tasers and pepper spray. All unnecessary to protect anyone from anything. Gratuitous abuse and cruelty and degradation, pure and simple.
In contrast, when sentenced to death for the car-jacking, abduction, “false imprisonment,” gang-rape, sadistic beatings, torture, mutilation, and murder of Christopher Newsom and Channon Christian, Lemaricus Davidson was in street clothes and he wasn’t shackled, though he was clearly a threat to assault the police and guards, probably trying to wrest the gun from one of them, probably a female -and, if successful, he could have shot and killed people before he was shot and killed or wounded and incapacitated; or to attack with his fists and feet the prosecutors, his lawyers, the victim’s parents, even the judge, possibly causing serious injuries before he was overpowered, incapacitated, probably by the use of a taser and pepper spray, subdued and shackled. I suggest you watch videos on youtube.com of courtroom mayhem and violence, altercations involving two or more people, punching, kicking, grabbing, the use of chairs as weapons, mostly between rapists and murderers and the families of their victims one can reasonably assume.
Incredibly, this subhuman beast and monster was afforded and treated with far more dignity and respect than was Abigail at her sentencing for a nonviolent and victimless and malum prohibitum felony, assuming she was guilty of such and lying about her “victim” raping and terrorizing her And so, too, were the other savages and monsters who were sentenced not to death but to decades in prison for one of the most gruesome, sadistic, hideous, sickening, depraved, horrific, ghastly, hellish, “unspeakable,” and “heinous” crimes in all of U.S. and world history.
(In a sane and just and rational country, they would have all been executed well over 10-years ago and Abigail would not have even been charged with a crime and surely not a felony. She would have been punished, non-criminally, by dismissal and the revocation of her license and expulsion from the profession for 5-10 years. Or, at worst, charged with a misdemeanor, however defined, and sentenced to probation (and perhaps house-arrest) until her “victim” turned 16, the generic age of consent in MIchigan, No prison, no jail, no quasi-totalitarian surveillance, no “sex-offender treatment,” no electronic parole-monitoring with an ankle-tether/”bracelet,” no public sex-offender registration. And that assuming she’s lying about her “victim” being the victimizer.)
And, in chains for over 2-hours, she was forced to hear the SVU detectives, prosecutors, various “experts,” CSA victimologists,” the “victim’s” mother, etc., demonize and vilify her as a monster and degenerate, a “sexual predator,” “child molester,” “child sexual abuser,” possibly even a “rapist” and “pedophile”; and her “victim,” a biological man of 15 who enjoyed the sex more than she did irrespective of the facts and whether or not he forced himself on her, defined and pitied as a “victim” of “rape” and CSA who is “traumatized,” devastated, and “scarred for life,” a depiction of the crime and actors that is not only false but execrably and ludicrously so.
She, not her “victim,” will be traumatized, devastated, and scarred for life.
And the “victim’s” mother, vicious in her lust for vengeance, implored the judge to be “severe in his sentencing,” i.e., to impose the maximum sentence of 25-years to life. Obviously, she knew that the judge had no choice but to sentence Abigail to 8-25 years in prison and a lifetime of draconian/Orwellian persecution. So to her, “only” 8-25 years in prison was too lenient for a woman who “used” a “child” for her “perverted desires” in a state and country in which violent and/or recidivist male criminals are repeatedly and systematically coddled. How crestfallen and outraged she must have been when the judge abjured her pleas and sentenced Abigail to “only” 8-25 years in prison and a lifetime of draconian/Orwellian persecution.
In a poll,, conducted by local Media, over 10% of respondents thought her sentence was too indulgent! And roughly 30% thought it was just and rational and proportionate: a testament to the power and influence of the media and CSA victimology -and, to a lesser degree, MRAs the misogynist lunatics of the soi-disant “men’s movement,”, who believe or claim to believe, contrary to the facts, that women who “rape” biological men under age 18 are rarely sentenced to prison or even jail while men guilty of the “exact same crime” with females are almost always crucified with their lives utterly destroyed. I’m sure they were elated by Abigail’s hideously draconian sentence while expressing outrage that such “justice” for male victims is so rare as to be virtually non-existent.
8-25 years in prison for a first-offender convicted of a nonviolent and victimless and malum prohibitum felony; 8-25 years in prison for crimes that are legal acts in dozens of other nations, including European countries; 8-25 years in prison for “crimes” in which the “victim” craves and enjoys the actus reus (i.e., the sex) far more than the woman who “rapes” and/or “molests” him and is often if not usually the aggressor and initiator of his phantasmal and theoretical “victimization”; 8-25 years in prison for transporting a biological man of 15 to sexual paradise in a factually consensual relationship.
And that’s assuming she’s “guilty” and lying about his raping and terrorizing her. If her story is truthful, completely or essentially, in whole or in part, then she was sentenced to 8-25 years in prison for “sexual assault” because her “victim” sexually assaulted her – as did the “victim” of Cassandra Sorenson-Grohall, who testified in court and admitted to police that he sexually harassed, molested, and raped her; and the “victim” of Melissa Bittner,” transparently innocent of sexually molesting a 16-year-old predator and criminal who sexually molested her but convicted of “sexual assault” and sentenced to prison and 20-years of public sex-offender registration.
8-25 years in prison in a country in which, during the 1990s, the decade in which the U.S. began to “get tough” on violent crime, the average time-served for murder (including non-negligent manslaughter) was less than 6-years and the average time-served for all violent crimes (aggravated assault, rape, robbery, homicide) was approximately 4-years. And these averages are even more execrable, appalling, and outrageous than they first appear, since one can reasonable assume that-90% of such felonies were committed by violent recidivists, overwhelmingly males with histories of violence and predation usually beginning at age 13 or 14, and most of whom should have been in prison rather than free to commit their latest violent felonies. And it’s likely that such averages are even lower today after 8-years of rule by Obama and Holder and Lynch and their advisors (including Al Sharpton) and appointees.
And she could have been sentenced to 25-years to life in prison for “crimes” that are legal acts in dozens of other nations, including European countries!
But a sentence of 8-25 years in prison is not punishment enough for a first-offender convicted of nonviolent and victimless and mala prohibitum felonies are legal acts or misdemeanors in dozens of other nations, including European countries. Nor, given the dogmas and fantasies of CSA victimologists, is it protection enough for all the boys and girls of MIchigan and the United States, including not only biological men under the legal age of consent but also young women under statutory age and prepubertal boys and girls.
Since her conviction wasn’t overturned on appeal and the judge who sentenced her to 8-25 years and a lifetime of surveillance and persecution twice upheld her draconian and Orwellian sentence, she’ll be enslaved for 8-years, at least, and perhaps longer. But if she doesn’t die in prison she’ll still be punished until the day she dies.
When released from prison after “only” 8-years, most likely, or 10- or 12-years(?), she’ll be subjected to years of post-incarceration quasi-totalitarian surveillance, probably including years of “sex-offender treatment,” even after years of same in prison, and restrictions on her freedoms and intrusions into her private life that not ever dystopian novelists like Orwell and Kafka could have imagined or prophesized decades ago, most of which don’t apply to violent felons, including male recidivists, who’ve never been convicted of a sexual offense. For how many years must she endure such penalties? I assume she’ll be on parole for 17-years if released from prison after “only” 8-years of enslavement or 15-years if released from prison after “only” 10-years of enslavement.
And, finally, her punishment includes a life-sentence of electronic parole-monitoring with an ankle-tether/” bracelet” she can never remove (not even when bathing, showering, sleeping) and registration for life as a uniquely deviant and dangerous criminal with her name, mugshot, and address on the internet for all to see with access to a computer, privately or publicly, and all which that entails in regard to danger and mortification, especially for a woman as infamous as Abigail due to weeks and months of local and state and national media coverage, tendentious and sensationalistic, surpassed only by Mary Letourneau.
All this for a first-offender convicted of nonviolent and victimless and mala prohibitum felonies (found “guilty” of having sex and exchanging emails and text-messages with a 15-year-old biological man who, if she’s telling the truth as a whole or largely, raped and bullied and terrorized and manipulated her), a woman who has never committed a violent or other mala in se crime in her life and never will and is not a “threat to society” or to anyone nor even a danger to “re-offend” by having sex with another young man under statutory age.
Not a single person of any age or either sex has been or will be any safer because of the imprisonment of Abigail for at least 8-years followed by decades of quasi-totalitarian surveillance and persecution. Not one violent or other serious crime has been or will be prevented or deterred by her hideously draconian/Orwellian life-sentence.
To call all of this insane is an understatement. It’s beyond insanity.

Investigate me for what: accurately defining a “pedophile” as a man (or older male adolescent), heterosexual or homosexual, with a sexual fixation on and obsession with prepubescent girls or boys; contending that it’s debatable if a woman can even be a pedophile under the APA definition; debunking the absurdity of vilifying Abigail as a “rapist” and “pedophile” for allowing a biological man of 15 to penetrate her in a factually consensual relationship. (assuming she’s lying about her “victim” being the victimizer; dnouncing the insane and execrable and grotesque sex cdrime laws of Michigan and Agigail’s hideously draconian/Orwellian sentence -none of which is a crime and, for the record, I’ve never committed a felony or even been convicted of a misdemeanor.

Watching the episode (a rerun) “A Teacher’s Message”. Where a 30-something female teacher, Abigail Simon, is charged with “Criminal Sexual Assault” against a 15 year old. Now I’m not judging whether or not she’s guilty, innocent, justified, or anything like that. Just the absolute HYPOCRISY of the Legal System in general, and specifically State Prosecutor Helen Brinkman. This out of touch b*tch, Brinkman, continues to refer to the alleged “victim”, as a CHILD, or a BOY? Please ! He’s 6′ 300pounds. In addition, why does the State have no problem charging 15 years olds as an “ADULT” in murder cases, but all of a sudden this 6′ 300pound character is a CHILD? I guess as a lawyer, you can manipulate words and the law to suit your needs, eh helen brinkman? This ugly, heinous prosecutor is obviously jealous of the beautiful young teacher, and prosecuted her out of spite.

Instead you want to sue for 25,000? Shoot for the stars bro… go millions.

I agree with these other posts. There certainly should be degrees of “child molestation” in the law to take into account the ludicrous idea that a healthy, 15-year old young man is victimized in the same way as a 10 or 11 year old. That Abbey Simon was sentenced to hard time for this is obscene and unjust. Community service and maybe 30 days would have more appropriate. I also believe she was stupid beyond belief in not accepting the plea deal offered her. Apparently she ignored her counsel’s advice and went ahead with a defense no jury would ever have believed. I wish her well and hope the new sentencing trial will result in time served and that common sense will finally prevail in this grotesque miscarriage of justice.

The one thing I found very strange that I’ve never heard addressed, and should be, was why the boy’s Mother went straight to police without discussing the matter with her son, and looking on his phone. I think the sentence and characterization of the participants was ludicrous but why would you put your son through a criminal investigation at the age of 16 or so…maybe that will be more damaging that the ill-conceived affair in the long run…did his Mom not talk to either her son or the teacher…could this tragedy have been averted by early, adult intervention outside a criminal courtroom? I just saw the 48 Hours show last night so was unaware of this case until yesterday.

I think the mother of the boy is wrong. She could have had this done with if she went to her son instead of the porkers. Abbey did what she needed to do to fight against this accusation. He may have been 15 but he had a physical body and desires of a man. I am sure Abbey was not the first in his young life.

You accuse me of believing and advocating what I don’t believe or advocate. The generic age of consent is 16 in Michigan and in most other jurisdictions, you lunatic and ignoramus, and that applies to both males and females. A majority of politicians in most U.S. states believe that males and females of 16 are old and mature enough to consent to or willingly and knowingly initiate sex with adult men and women. And the age of consent is 14 and 15 in many other nations, including European countries, and that applies to both males and females. The governing-classes of these countries believe that males and females of 14 and 15 are old and mature enough to consent to or willingly and knowingly initiate sex with adult men and women.

Nowhere do I “argue” or even imply that. Generally, both males and females of 15 are old and mature enough to consent to or willingly and knowingly initiate sex with adult men and women. Since, in such intrigues, the adults are not guilty of using violence/force or threats of same to compel the submission of underage adolescents, the young men and women freely chose and wanted to have sex with the adults. If not, all they had to do is say no and reject their advances and importunities.
