The creep accused of getting an 11-year-old pregnant wants a court to believe he thought it was his wife the whole time.
And if you don't think this story could get worse -- or more bizarre -- just wait.
The girl was a friend of Michael Lacy's daughter. She was in the house for a sleepover.
West Virginia TV station WSAZ says 36-year-old Lacy -- whose dental hygiene leaves something to be desired by the looks of him -- told police he'd taken Lortab and Xanax the night of the sleepover.
Then he tells the cops he woke up to someone kissing his neck, and figuring it was his wife, he kissed back. Of course he doesn't remember anything else here -- he took all those painkillers.
The girl -- who was a virgin at the time -- is now nine weeks pregnant, and Lacy is facing sexual assault charges.
The horror of the story leads to a host of questions, from where was the mother at this time? Who takes serious narcotics when they're supposed to be in charge of a group of pre-teens? And how did an 11-year-old become pregnant?
Four years ago Britain announced its first official "youngest mother" was a girl who was the same age -- 11.
The world's youngest ever seems to be a 5-year-old Peruvian girl.
Now with puberty striking kids as young as 4 -- and more and more of them -- these sad stories are becoming more common according to researchers.
Girls are being compelled to act the age they look rather than the age they are, and they're often coerced into sexually mature relationships that don't meet their emotional age. Whether it's by a boy their own age closer to their age or an adult, they're being victimized.
Add to it the fact that the presence of a menstrual cycle enables the body to become pregnant, and it's compounding the tragedy of sexual assault with the stigma of being pregnant at such a young age.

Facing his actions everyday is a fitting punishment as it's something that he'll never be allowed to get over, by speaking to kids, parents, and potential rapists alike. He makes kids and parents more aware to use caution, that scumbags are truly out there, and to people who might commit such acts, they hold consequences that WILL catch up to them.
On the note of same age. I'm sorry at the same age the girl is only the victim if it's rape, period. The girl comes out with the greater burden if she has a child at a young age, this is true, but unless she says "no" it's a choice she made as much as the guy did, our choices hold consequences, that is life.
Our children will make their own choices for better or worse, you cannot stop them from making bad choices anymore then you can force them to make good ones. All you can do is talk to them and provide them the tools to make the best choices they can, which is why you should go by the rule talk early, talk often. if you wait to have "the talk" until age 12, there's a good chance you're already too late.
the poor girl hasn't even went through the changes of puberty yet how in the world is her little body going to handle a baby :(
That is so incredibly sad and disgusting. I hope that guy has a big man named Bubba that takes a liking to him while he is in prison.
She obviously consented and is mature, I hate you Nazis that think this is wrong. If you say you've never been attracted to someone under legal age you're a liar.
An 11 year old is not a mature person. I have kids and my 13 year old is NOT mature. Knowledgeable about sex and right and wrong but certainly NOT MATURE and absolutely NOT CONSENTING! How disgusting your comment is and it only makes everyone see that you're either his friend, neighbour, or someone just like him. You're horrible to say that you are attracted to under age kids. Something is not right with you. She is pregnant!! If you are like this trash, then I hope you can provide your next new little wife coming out of 5th grade a good home for her and your child you will be having together. How despicable. Trash Trash Trash..
To add: I now understand the logic.. Males like you are only attracted to under age girls because you are on the same intellectual and emotional level as a 4th and 5th grader. That's why you can condone these hanus acts.. Haha! So sad for you.
I even remember an 11 year old being pregnant in my neighborhood. She was not raped, everyone knew she was fast and hot in the ass.
It is rape even if she did "consent".A child cannot consent to sex with an adult.There are some states that do not consider it statutory rape if there is consent and there is less than a four year age difference between the child and adult.This creep is not 15.She was raped , it is profoundly disgusting there are some that think it could be ok.
If in fact this girl "came on" to this man, she's been triply victimized. First, by whatever upbringing put her into that kind of mindset. Second, by this adult who should not have touched her under any circumstances. Third, by a public that does not understand the limitations of an 11-year-old's maturity.
But seriously, look how ugly and gross he is - it would take a lot to convince me that a girl went after that.
