A woman was raped and is convicted with adulterly and given a 12 year prison system unless she marries her attacker. This particular case has a child in the equation. The rapist's child who the woman wants to protect and therefore risk death at the hands of such a monster.

I just want people to acknowledge how messed up this is and pressure whoever you can to change it.
