Today New Jersey became the 46th state to pass the Jessica Lunsford Act toughening penalties against those who sexually assault children under the age of 13.
 
If found guilty of the crime, the offender would serve a sentence of at least 25 years in prison without the possibility of parole – with the caveat that a prosecutor would have the ability to negotiate a shorter sentence of 15 years if the Attorney General deems it’s in the best interest of the victim.
 
Critics of the law say that it doesn’t necessarily protect children; and may have dire consequences for older teenagers who have relationships with younger children.
