WASHINGTON — The question of how victims’ actions are analyzed in sexual assault and rape cases is the topic of legislation in Annapolis, and part of a legal argument being made in a Montgomery County case that’s gotten national attention.
The attorneys for the two teenagers accused of raping a 14-year-old fellow Rockville High school student argue that what happened in a boy’s bathroom at the school was not a crime but a consensual act.
Andrew Jezic, the attorney for 18-year-old defendant Henry Sanchez Milian, told WTOP that the police affidavit contains no evidence of physical resistance by the victim: “There are no scratches; there’s no bruises.”

The word "NO" does no leave scratches or bruises when there are 2 males threatening you. MD law states 15 is the age of consent period. Under 15 is rape period.
A consensual sex act on school grounds? That attorney is just another dumbocrat idiot.
In the liberal democratic world the rights of illegal aliens are more important then women's rights. Amazing in the last election they were complaining about the lack of women's rights.
Must be trying to use Hillary's strategy from when she defended a guilty rapist who assaulted a minor girl.
Where's the pink hat brigade on this case?

You're wrong. There's is (a few months)less then 4yrs difference in age between the two, which changes everything as far as consent in Maryland. The little monsters lawyer knows exactly what he's doing.

you wrote,"MD law states 15 is the age of consent period. Under 15 is rape period." so not true... if they can come up with anything showing she may have been willing, they will walk.
In Maryland children under the age of consent may legally have sex, as long as there is only a small age difference between them. Persons aged between 14 and 16 may consent to sex as long as the other partner is not more than 4 years older.
