So this guy, Asher Potts, is this 23 year old Ukrainian man who was just arrested for posing as a high schooler and also having loveual relations with an 18 year old and 15 year old allegedly.

Heres a quick summary of his story from the article:

- Artur's (Asher's) family gave them all their money to send him to the U.S.
- He comes here on a work visa which expires so he gets a visitor's visa which also expires
- He reaches out to this couple, the Potts, who offer to help him by adopting him
- Artur, who is 20, has to drop 5 years in order to be adopted
- Artur becomes Asher Potts and is now 15 with a birth certificate stating he was born in 1997
- He goes to high school, is a straight A student, does community service and spends most of him time either   doing chores for the Potts or focusing on education
-He gets busted by the authorities and in his interview he states that he came here for a better life, that the U.S. is the land of opportunity and that he tried to do better for the society but he recognizes his crime and admits he's guilty but does not regret what he did

Interesting and I find it kinda sad but


wow, that sucks that he was arrested but still...

nice

wow, that sucks that he was arrested but still...
dude

he banged a minor


Eh, I understand wanting to move to the US for a better life, but banging minors and falsifying identification is overboard so i dont have much respect for this guy

well like i said he had to fake his age to be adopted and gain "citizenship" but yeah banging minors was a problem

seemed like a decent human being other than that tho

Oh yeah I saw this on the news this morning! The news didn't seem to focus on the loveual relationship however... instead they mentioned how he had a 4.1 GPA and such.

yeah its funny how this article title focuses on the loveual assault charges yet the beef of the article is about his story of arriving here and settling here

thats the media for ya

hey now there's no problem with slipping under the age limit a little~

keep in mind what difference 3 years make
15

18

there is a world of difference my friend

is that second picture supposed to be better orrr?

idk what he was trying to say

Agism is apparently a thing.

If someone claims they are mentally a specific age that now apparently gives them rights to do what they want.
