Louisville 2014 signee arrested after impregnating his 14-year-old cousin
Louisville 2014 signee Sharieff Rhaheed was arrested and charged with lewd lascivious behavior with his 14 year old cousin after DNA tests on the aborted fetus showed 99.9% DNA match. The investigation had been going since October so I don't how any school could have pursued him last month. The family knew about the investigation in November when he and his mother refused to submit for DNA test until warrant was served at his high school. Louisville got a good one in Bobby Petrino. On another note, his other main suitors and finalists: Mark Dantonio, Gary Pinkel, and Bret Bielema. I am not surprised at all.

You do realize that you don't have to be married to have sex, right?
February 27th, 2014 at 12:27 PM ^
No I didn't realize that, thanks for informing me.
February 27th, 2014 at 12:29 PM ^
Didn't mean to reply to your post.

it's also allowed in Maine subject to genetic testing. . .
February 27th, 2014 at 6:51 PM ^
Everywhere it's legal no one has tried to do it so there is no need for the law.
February 27th, 2014 at 12:19 PM ^
You live in West Virginia, eh?
February 27th, 2014 at 12:24 PM ^
not from there, but that is neither here nor there. Not sensitive, it's just a common misconception that you have to throw in Viginians faces on a daily basis. LOL
February 27th, 2014 at 1:34 PM ^
please don't lump yourself in with us.

some day, you'll meet a nice girl and you'll change all that.
February 27th, 2014 at 12:24 PM ^
Interestingly enough this joke is untrue.
Because there are no gay people in states where gay marriage isn't allowed?
February 27th, 2014 at 12:30 PM ^
You're a little daft, aren't you?
February 27th, 2014 at 12:41 PM ^
a little SAD aren't you?

What he's saying is that a state could outlaw first cousin marriage and still have lots of first cousins bumpin' uglies.
February 27th, 2014 at 7:34 PM ^
Bumpin' uglies? Seriously, That's awesome.
February 27th, 2014 at 12:34 PM ^
He was insinuating that sexual inclinations are not dictated by marriage law. In other words, just because you are in an area where you can't legally marry someone, it doesn't mean the doing the dirty on the DL will not be did, ya dig?
February 27th, 2014 at 12:39 PM ^
Sarcasm? #could it be
February 27th, 2014 at 1:38 PM ^
The "joke", such as it is, is the implication that West Virginia is so backwards that first-cousin relationships are the norm, or at least unusually widely socially accepted. The fact that first-cousin marriages are not legal would imply that there is strong social opposition to the relationships, and the fact that they are legal in many other states suggests that West Virginia is not particularly permissive compared to the rest of the country.
Ergo, if you're attempting to make a joke about "all in the family" sexual relations (which is a bit gross considering the context here), West Virginia is a poor choice for a state stereotype.

It doesn't mean that the states without a law on the books are OK with it happening. But it does strongly imply that the state WITH the law on the books is NOT OK with it happening. Something can be common without being socially acceptable or "normal". The implied joke is not that cousin relationships are merely common in WV, but that they are the "norm".
Anyway, if we're going with tasteless stereotypes to make a joke, why not go with Alabama (over WV) since it is both stereotypcially backward AND has legalized first cousin marriages AND has a certifiable ass as its coach?
February 27th, 2014 at 2:33 PM ^
the State of Michigan had such a problem with 1st cousins marrying each other a law was needed to prohibit it?
February 27th, 2014 at 5:17 PM ^
I'm taking a guess here, but as a New Yorker, we have a lot of old laws on the books - I'm guessing this is a remnant from colonial days where it was very important for the prominent families to inter-marry for political reasons, and everyone was everyone's cousin. This was back when the Livingstons and another family whose name escapes me basically ran all of New York.
And then they probably never changed it for the reason you suggest - it just isn't much of an issue in this state, I suspect.
Impregnating your 14 year old cousin, though, that would definitely run afoul of the law.

One year in J.C. and then Auburn will sign him.

I really wish I hadn't read this. Disturbing.

The world is a fucked up place.
We're all fucked up people
This thread really made me sad.
February 27th, 2014 at 12:34 PM ^
It's all Webber's fault.
February 27th, 2014 at 1:40 PM ^
Shit like this story is highlighted because it draws attention. What you don't see are the millions of people doing things that aren't fucked up.
We're not all fucked-up people. We're imperfect. And that's okay. We deal with it by banding together to un-fuck the world, because we're all we've got.

February 27th, 2014 at 12:18 PM ^
crap. I have no (other) words.
February 27th, 2014 at 12:19 PM ^
Shouldn't that be a bit more than lewd and lascivious behavior?
February 27th, 2014 at 12:25 PM ^
But essentially boils down to a felony sex charge with somone between 12-16. Dude going to prison for a LONG time.
February 27th, 2014 at 12:32 PM ^
a pretty story.
My wife ( who is 29 right now ) was the victim of sexual abuse at the hands of her father, during her teenage years. That abuse resulted in pregnancy. When she finally pressed charges ( it took a few years ), he recieved an 11 to 15 year sentence.
This thread fuckign sucks, the jokes that are being made fucking suck. Sexual abuse fucking sucks.
February 27th, 2014 at 12:34 PM ^
Amen.
Might be time to shut it down.
How are people making light of this with jokes?
February 27th, 2014 at 12:39 PM ^
I understand the jokes. The other day on some other thread I explained that I make dick jokes because the world sucks. But man this shit just hits close to home. I'm probably being overly sensitive.
February 27th, 2014 at 12:46 PM ^
Not at all.
