Wow, I'm actually torn on this topic. I'm not sure if I need to say that the guy is a danger to children, and deserves what he got, or if he needs to be given a break.
I guess my opinion on this is that he did get into a relationship with an underage person. I don't know if that should be accepted and forgiven, despite him marrying her or not.
Maybe someone should address why he got into a relationship with an underage person, despite the outcome.

Well it seems to have been in love since they married...it was mutual...she was already 15...don't see the big problem actually.
Well, what I'm saying is this: Did he get involved with her because she was 15 and it was that fact that drew hi to her, or was it because of her? Granted, that's a question that only the man himself can answer. But, it would be the deciding factor in my opinion of the situation. But, I'm just one person, and if the consensus of the parents in his situation are okay with him being around their kids, then I guess it's okay. Not to sound arrogant.
PVS said earlier that we don't know if he received a mild sentence for a more serious crime.
I am reminding people that it is absolutely definite that nothing in the area of 'serious crime' has ever been proven against him, and as we all know, he's innocent until something proves otherwise.
You do not get cautions for serious offences.

Well to stay with her for around 26 years afterwards (And I am pretty much sure that she wasn't fifteen for at least 18 of them) shows kind of that it was for her...well maybe it was part of a greater sheme to get close to 15 year olds again..but it might just not.
