Agree on ur first sentence.
even if she got only a B and not A, it is still corruption.
why ?
because if she didn't offer sex, means she could have got worse result than a B grade: maybe a C, D or even F ?
How u can u be sure of d second part?
If her record shows she was consistently getting gud grades in her law course,
n she made d Dean's List in her first year at NUS, then we cannot make dat conjecture.
Wat we can however say in dis case with Dr Tey is
after she got F, she received a B. :rotflmao: -

Not a fair statement dat 'most of these people are from top schools'.
I guess last time also like this, just that there was no internet, perhaps even more rampant, not reported, and no internet vigilante ..... office adultery, EMA between school staff etc were not unheard of .....verykiasu2010:

Our society is getting more & more complicated. With so many corruption & sex scandals & most of these people are from top schools. A good example is the NUS law student. Don't just focus on IQ, moral values are equally important too. Can't imagine she used her own body to exchange for good grade. Disgusting!
Not dat other ppl don't screw.
Just dat they arouse greater interest when caught,
Dat NUS law girl arh, eyes a bit cocked.[/quote]the 'top school' comment not from me hor -

Good point. Change the scenario a bit.
The fishmonger did weigh but his tampered his scale.
The officer ask why I never bring my own weighing scale.
Fair? -
caveat emptor still applies.
If knowing its a shady stall with a questionable fishmonger,
u still proceed to patronise, u deserve wat u get.
I hv serious reservations dat d District Judge is absolutely convinced himself when he cited “the intent of section 376B(1) of the Penal Code is to protect minors from being sexually exploited” in his oral judgement wrt to dis case.
If u concur dat dis underaged prostitution case is being played out to a larger, wider International audience wrt to human trafficking in minors, then whether d scales hv been tampered with by a shady fishmonger, d fish is fresh or smelly is not dat relevant, isn’t it? -

I guess there is a misunderstanding here.Tally Board
Most misguided interpretation of d law by a DPP – d deceitful prostitute who was not coerced/exploited into prostitution \"is ‘worthy’ of protection\" under d law.
The law states that the act of engaging the service of an underage prostitute is illegal. Those who committed the act will be dealt by the law bcoz they committed the ACT, not bcoz it is to seek redress or protection for the \"victim\".
Whether the prostitute is deceitful or not have no relevance. You can fight for contributory liability.. but you cannot be \"innocent\".
However, since it is already stated that \"reasonable mistake as to age\" is not a valid defense (read somewhere), there is no getting away regardless of whether the prostitute lied about her age or looked matured. -

Yes. You could have refused to buy when in doubt.
An analogy. If salmon fish is going to extinct and there is an international ban of buying salmon less than 1kg in size. I go to the market and saw one salmon on sale. I asked the fishmonger and he assured me that the fish is more than 1kg. Looking at the size, it does look like 1kg.
I bought it and got caught. The officer weighed it and found it to be 995g and I am now faced with a fine. I told the officer that the fishmonger said it is above 1kg but he chided me for not asking the fishmonger to weigh it infront of me to confirm it is indeed above 1kg.
Fair?
You could have exercised due diligence to verify by weighting.. but you didn't.
You took the gamble, the risk.
If unsure, walk away. .that is the message that the law is giving. -
AC_Power:
No. your example is too detached from the case.
Good point. Change the scenario a bit.
The fishmonger did weigh but his tampered his scale.
The officer ask why I never bring my own weighing scale.
Fair?
Just say, tampered his scale, don't talk about you bringing your own scale.
In this case, you would be the innocent party, and I do agree that it is not fair to arrest you. Because you DID check the scale.
Let's relate it to the case. It is akin to the man asking to see the ID of the girl, and the girl produced an ID of someone older who looked almost exactly like her, or a fake ID so real that one could not reasonably expect it to be fake.
Then, the man will have a valid defense, IMO.
But, in all the man's case, no ONE actually verified the ID of the girl. That, is the key point. -
