The headline says it all: “Man found not guilty in sexual foursome gone bad.”
Wait. Actually, the headline doesn’t even begin to get at the weirdness of this story. After two sets of boyfriend-girlfriend meet in a bar and then decide — apparently on a whim — to head back to one of their houses for some couple-swapping, things go wrong:
Salinas testified that he heard Nevarez-Nevarez call his name and saw that she was trying to end her tryst with Dinga. When Dinga continued, he rushed him, Salinas said.
Dinga testified that Nevarez-Nevarez appeared to enjoy the sex and said “after a moment or two she started moaning a bit,” making “soft, pleasurable sounding noise.” It was the defense theory, as stated by Brophy, that when Salinas heard pleasurable sounds coming from his girlfriend, he decided to end the swap meet and attacked Dinga.
The two men weren’t injured after what the story memorably calls their “bedroom jousting,” but they met up later in the garage, where a knife fight broke out and Salinas ended up badly stabbed. Charges were filed, but Dinga was found not guilty.
Not guilty except of….

Stupidity? How about guilty of stupidity and the never ending fascination of sexual gratification. I mean, if it is good with your partner, why spoil that? I say guilty of stupidity!
