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.
So they want to get him off the street as the violent criminal he is?
What a joke…
You have the impression only violent criminals get sentenced to go to prison?

Of course not. This is why Murvel’s question seemed so weird that I thought of asking.
Oh, I thought we were doing a bit.
Like I agree with you, just thought we were going for dark humor
It looks like we had different visibility of the fediverse, I am in kbin. It seemed like you asked me. Murvel’s comment just arrived. It still looks like you ask me.
No, did I say that?

Sure, and the one does not equal the other… stop reading into things

Now I’m falling asleep And she’s calling a cab While he’s having a smoke And she’s taking a drag
Dodgy dude full of himself by all accounts apparently. Who knows what he’s and his buddies have been doing off camera.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
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 indictment said the three officials harassed Hermoso by exerting “constant and repeated acts of pressure” directly on the player and through her friends and family.
Spain’s criminal code allows judges to “exceptionally” suspend jail terms if – as in this case – none of the sentences imposed individually exceeds two years.
Police were also reported to have raided an apartment in Granada belonging to Rubiales, who was banned from all football activity for three years in October over his misconduct at the World Cup final.
The RFEF issued a statement on Wednesday confirming its management commission will now examine “any type of contract that may be under suspicion due to the actions of its former president, Luis Rubiales.
