seriously?

"Phoenix man accused of sexually assaulting unconscious woman on Internet gets 2.5 years"

While his girlfriend was passed out drunk, this man sexually assaulted her while broadcasting the entire ordeal on the internet. Voyeurs called the police.

We well know the magnitude of emotional distress that such unwilling participation in webcam voyeurism can have. Tyler Clementi, a student at Rutgers University, jumped to his death from the George Washington Bridge after his roommate secretly videoed, and broadcast live, a tryst Tyler had with his boyfriend. The roommate and the woman accomplice could receive up to 5 years in prison for this invasion of privacy.

But this man who racked up further charges only gets 2.5 years?

Not to mention the headline. Phoenix man ACCUSED? How about Convicted?
