FREEDOM — A brother and sister have been charged after their sexual relationship came to light.
According to a criminal complaint, the 30-year-old woman and 37-year-old man, both of Freedom, are each charged with incest after the woman told officers about their intimate relationship, which resulted in a child. They are not being named by The Times due to the nature of the crime.

From wherever Beaver County is, here is a case of good old down home incest. The man just became overly fond of his sister.
At least both were charged in this case. But why is her bail so much lower than his?Freedom brother and sister charged with incest

As a society we usually defer to females when the hammer comes down.At least both were charged in this case. But why is her bail so much lower than his?
Which translates to we let them get away with crimes more than we let men get away with crimes.As a society we usually defer to females when the hammer comes down.
Lincoln's assassination was a bigger shock to this country than 9/11. When they hung Mary Sarrat her minister held an umbrella to shield the poor woman from the rays of the D.C. sun. As I said, deferrence to a degree.Which translates to we let them get away with crimes more than we let men get away with crimes.
I would assume it's because of this:At least both were charged in this case. But why is her bail so much lower than his?
Fair enough.I would assume it's because of this:
"During the investigation, the woman told police her brother attacked her and then fled as officers arrived, a report said."
and also
"Her brother remains in jail for the incest charge as well as simple assault and harassment, online records show"
He's not just in for incest, but also a violent crime.
On a 'slow' news day there's always some academic getting busted or sentenced for some deviant sexual behavior.I've not idea what the fascination is with incest here lately and since we're already off the moral deep-end and we're all going to Hell anyway...
...have you ever heard the old adage, "If you can't keep it in the family keep it in your pants"?
I bet that's from West Virginia.
Ohio is competing to take that title from them…Pennsylvania, the Alabama of the north
That harm is over played. There have been several cases in the recent past where siblings who had no idea they were such for years, have married and had kids with no issues. First generation inbreeding does not do as much harm as is often touted. In fact it is a method breeders use often, albeit only once every 5 generations at the shortest interval for any given line. It is repeated inbreeding over generations where the real damage occurs. But the social pressure for such things is no longer there, not even among royalty anymore, which is where such multigenerational was almost exclusive.The “sexual deviancy” of incest doesnt really get me as much as the objective harm it often causes to a child born from the pairing.

My opposition wasnt really based on the sick factor of it, but the harm that continuous inbreeding tends to cause.Assuming there is no genetic malformity, what is the objective harm - social stigma? Are siblings guaranteed to be inherently unfit parents, to such a significant degree that it stands out in comparison to when Mom and Dad aren't swimming in the same bloodline?
Don't get me wrong, subjectively I have a visceral reaction to these stories, and admittedly I even look askance at pairings of first cousins. But why? The only reason I can think of is I've been socially conditioned to react negatively.
But taking the squick factor out of it, let's assume the pairing is between consenting adults and there is no abuse. What is the objection that justifies criminalizing the relationship? Why can't we all just mind our own business, provided it doesn't hurt or otherwise infringe on others?
I must be getting more libertarian/anarchist leanings in my advancing age.
Continuous inbreeding would certainly be a potential issue. Someone up above mentioned spacing such pairings in a bloodline out by 5 generations? No idea if that would bring the risk of genetic disorders down to the level of a non-relational pairing.My opposition wasnt really based on the sick factor of it, but the harm that continuous inbreeding tends to cause.
I havnt heard that before which is why i brought up continuous.Continuous inbreeding would certainly be a potential issue.

That was me that mentioned it. 5 generations is the minimum separation so that it is not considered inbreeding. I learned that when I ran across the tidbit that animal breeders would sometimes do a single generation inbreed to reenforce a trait.I havnt heard that before which is why i brought up continuous.
Full siblings share half their DNA. If your parents are full siblings you're getting ~6 duplicate chromosomes.That harm is over played.

If you don't know why you shouldn't have sex with your sister there's not much hope for you.Assuming there is no genetic malformity, what is the objective harm - social stigma?

NaAll they have to do is the man say he is gay and the woman say she is a lesbian.Liberals will adore them.
The odds of a full blood brother and sister not being genetically related are less than one in thirty five trillion. It's unlikely that such a pair has ever existed in the entire history of mankind.Not necessarily. It can range from all DNA (identical twins) to none (possible if improbable) and everywhere in between. Remember that each chromosome pair splits into two with both parents, so it's possible to have two eggs have no same chromosome halves between them and highly likely to have two sperm which do not, since there will be several such pairs.
Most people carry recessive defective genes. Even a single duplicate chromosome is dangerous, and the average offspring of full sibling incest gets six of them.Further, in order for the inbreeding to have a negative effect, both would have to carry a recessive gene that causes a birth defect AND both pass it on. This is why first generation inbreeding isn't as dangerous as subsequent generations of inbreeding. If a birth defect comes from a dominant gene, it doesn't matter whether or not the other gene is the same. Such a dominant gene will cause the defect even with the partner not being blood related.

Like two men married adopting a baby is something straight from Biden country.Na
Brother and sister being intimate, sounds like something straight from Trump country.
