East Weymouth, MA asked in Divorce for Massachusetts

Q: Any legal recourse?years ago was charged with lewd and lacivious conduct in MA. The other party was in his 20s

Along with another 14 year old girl. We were charged with sexual acts in public. This was about 18 years ago. We were with two men in their late twenties. As an adult parent of a 14 year old, and kn retrosepct, I know that I was a victim of these men. I feel as though I was a victim of the court, as well. Do i need to accept ot and move on? Am I correct in feeling that those men should have faced more severe charges than the same lewd and lacivious conduct we were faced with?
