Luis Rubiales could face a prison sentence of two and a half years if convicted of kissing Jenni Hermoso on the lips against her will, court documents have shown. The former Spanish football federation chief has been charged with one count of sexual assault and one of coercion in the aftermath of the kiss, offences carrying jail terms of one year and 18 months respectively.
The 46-year-old grabbed Hermoso and kissed her on the lips on 20 August during the awards ceremony after Spain beat England in the Women’s World Cup final in Sydney, sparking global outrage and causing a national debate in Spain about sexism. Hermoso and her teammates said the kiss was unwanted and demeaning, but Rubiales argued it was consensual and denied any wrongdoing.
30 months is disproportionate for sexually harassing/assaulting an employee? Get the fuck out of here with that shit.
And yes, that’s what that was. An unsolicited kiss is absolutely sexual harassment and/or assault. Doubly so from a person I’m a position of authority.
Interesting! I disagree, but found your righteous indignation refreshing. It’s just the thing Lemmy could use more of!
