A Twin Falls woman convicted of forcing a 13-year-old boy to touch her breasts was sentenced Monday to life in prison. Michelle Lyn Taylor, 34, was convicted of lewdness with a minor under 14 in November after a week-long trial in Elko County, Nev., District Judge Mike Memeo's courtroom. With the conviction, Taylor faced a mandatory life sentence, and Memeo set parole eligibility after 10 years, the minimum sentence. If released on parole she must register as a sex offender and will be under lifetime supervision.

[Reaction on this article by 'antimisandry', 30 April 2010:] This sentence is terribly harsh for such a minor crime. BUT - this is the reality men face as a matter of routine. Did anyone notice in the video, Kilpatrick [public defender] almost slipped up by saying "was never intended for a woman", and had to change her words "was never intended for .... someone like Michelle Taylor". When she realised the Judge wouldn't sway with "but she's a woman", she had to rely on "boo hoo waaaaaaaaah". This is the equality that feminists demanded, now it's biting them on the ass - deservedly so.
