This article provides an update on allegations that Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi the debauched womanizer purchased sex from a minor. The Moroccan minor, a known prostitute denies having sex with the Prime Minister however, she is shown on video but does NOT deny that he has showered her with luxuries and expensive gifts.
Apparently it is not illegal to have sex with an underage girl so long as he does not pay for it. Consequently, the lavish gifts amount to paying for it! An Italian judge has ordered him to stand trial!
Abolition!

Berlusconi is going on trial April 6 in Milan on charges that he paid for sex with a 17-year-old Moroccan girl and then tried to cover it up. Berlusconi has been in court for a number of business-related charges, but this is the first time the 74-year-old billionaire businessman is being tried for personal conduct.

Was the judge, by any chance, a female? This year, in the election cycle, we will be nominating and electing candidates for the Bench. Be sure to find and support MATURE WOMEN with both legal expertise and political / business accomplishments. (tip: women win these elections. Avoid the ones that are too young, however, they’re still buying into the guy’s game.)
