G. Todd Baugh, Montana Judge Apologizes For Comments About Teen Rape Victim

G. Todd Baugh, Montana Judge Apologizes For Comments About Teen Rape Victim: BILLINGS, Mont. -- A Montana judge apologized but said he had no plans to resign after his remarks about a 14-year-old rape victim – and the 30-day jail sentence he handed the perpetrator – sparked outrage.

District Judge G. Todd Baugh said Wednesday he "deserved to be chastised" for his comments about the victim, who he had said was "older than her chronological age" and had as much control of the situation as the Billings Senior High School teacher who was in a sexual relationship with her.

Preet Bharara, the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, chastised businesses last year for failing to disclose that their computer systems have been breached.
