That's what trials are for, to determine guilt and innocence- not parents, not ham-handed $0.02 opinions in newspaper columns or web forums (not that the opinions in here are cheap) and it makes no sense for all these people to pretend to interpret law for themselves.
That being said, I don't think it's unreasonable for me to have a feeling in my head that this guy is trying to make a name for himself by latching onto an easy voter-friendly issue and squeezing it for all the popularity points it's worth.
Again, not that it isn't an issue to be handled in court.
