Georgia man sentenced to life in prison for having sex with his wife when she said no. He’s accused of 'marital rape.'

Before we get into this news, let me first say this: WE DO NOT CONDONE FAMILY VIOLENCE OF ANY KIND. If you’re cruel to your family, you deserve to be in jail. With that said, here is a key point to remember about cases like these: When a judge hands down a verdict, that case can later be used as a template for similar cases. In other words, if you’re married or in divorce proceedings, your wife can use this case as an example to accuse you of rape if, at any point in your marriage, the sex was not consensual. In Cherokee County, Nicholas Mittenmeyer has been sentenced to life in prison for raping and abusing his wife. The wife sought to raise awareness about marital rape, emphasizing that sexual assault within marriage is still a crime and that abusers must be held accountable. Key points from the case include: - Mittenmeyer, 45, received a life sentence plus an additional 20 years from Judge Shannon Wallace, which exceeded prosecutors' expectations. - He was convicted after a five-day trial on charges of rape, aggravated assault related to family violence, and false imprisonment on March 21. - The investigation began six months after the victim reported the assault, which she delayed due to believing that marriage exempted her from rape laws. - Upon realizing the truth about consent, the wife confronted Mittenmeyer and recorded their conversation, where he did not deny the assault, providing crucial evidence for the trial. - Evidence revealed a long history of abuse, including physical and sexual violence against his wife. - The wife hopes her story encourages others in abusive relationships to seek help and reinforces that "rape is a crime, whether married or not." The case highlights the complexities surrounding allegations of marital abuse, especially concerning custody disputes. The wife expressed gratitude for the support she received during the legal process and emphasized the importance of believing victims. Please like, comment and subscribe.
