A Louisiana man has been sentenced to decades in prison and physical castration after pleading guilty to raping a teenager, according to a news release from the region’s district attorney.

Glenn Sullivan Sr., 54, pled guilty to four counts of second-degree rape on April 17. Authorities began investigating Sullivan in July 2022, when a young woman told the Livingston Parish Sheriff’s Office that Sullivan had assaulted her multiple times when she was 14. The assaults resulted in pregnancy, and a DNA test confirmed that Sullivan was the father of the child, the district attorney’s office said. Sullivan had also groomed the victim and threatened her and her family to prevent her from coming forward.

A 2008 Louisiana law says that men convicted of certain rape offenses may be sentenced to chemical castration. They can also elect to be physically castrated. Perrilloux said that Sullivan’s plea requires he be physically castrated. The process will be carried out by the state’s Department of Corrections, according to the law, but cannot be conducted more than a week before a person’s prison sentence ends. This means Sullivan wouldn’t be castrated until a week before the end of his 50-year sentence — when he would be more than 100 years old.

      Because it’s a sick question. A 14-year-old child can’t be “willing during the sexual encounter”. It’s just rape. If that’s not reason enough for you though, here’s the relevant bit from the article:

        Yes they can be.

        You’re just afraid to answer the question cause it doesn’t go along with your agenda.

          My agenda of wanting children to have a rape-free childhood? You’re disgusting. Fuck off pedophile.

              I did answer your question. I said she can’t have consented because she’s a child. I also quoted the relevant lines from the article that said she was groomed and threatened. You just didn’t like my answer because it didn’t fit your agenda of wanting to be allowed rape children.

                  Well let me be perfectly clear then. Children don’t willingly have sex with adults. They’re coerced, groomed, tricked, conned, manipulated, threatened, or forced. Even if a 14-year-old’s brain was developed enough to understand exactly what was happening (and it’s absolutely not), the power dynamic between an adult and a child has a profound impact on whatever agency the child had in the situation.

                  If an adult convinced a child to point a gun at their head and pull the trigger, I guess you could call that willingly committing suicide, but I would call it murder.

                    Children don’t willingly have sex with adults.

                    That’s not true. I had sex with an 18 year old when I was 14 and I don’t regret it for a second.

                    I think I would be way more messed up in the head if I missed out on my opportunity because of people like you who don’t really care about me anyways.

                    If you really want to get into it, Edgar Allen Poe married his cousin when she was 13.

                    Maybe she actually wanted to marry him? But you’re too far gone to see reality for what it is.
