I am suprised at the 3-yr-prison term, albeit, I don't know all the facts.
Recently, a youth minister here in NJ, who molested (fondled) several boys,
got probation. 3 yrs seems very harsh for this type of inappropriate act
which, unless she were lactating and had a transmittable disease, would
cause no physical or psychological harm to the victim. It does seem
possible that the view of this act as "disgusting" resulted in the term.
While I wouldn't advocate going to bat for this person, I do agree with
posters that say that warped societal attitudes towards breastfeeding may
have played a role. OTOH, the defendant may have admitted that she did it
for sexual reasons.
Melissa, in her JD and PD (public defender) role only.
