Parents Expose Jesse Butler: "30 Seconds From Murder" — No Jail Time for Teen Who Strangled & SA Two Girls!

The parents of Jesse Butler's victims are breaking their silence — and what they're revealing is devastating. Jesse Mack Butler, 18, of Stillwater, Oklahoma, pleaded no contest to 11 felony charges including attempted rape, rape by instrumentation, and domestic assault by strangulation against two teenage girls. One victim was strangled until she lost consciousness and required surgery on her neck. Her doctor told her she was 30 seconds away from dying. Police found video on Butler's phone of him strangling the other victim. He faced 78 years in prison. Instead, a judge granted him "youthful offender" status — and he received community service, counseling, and supervision until his 19th birthday. 

No prison. No sex offender registry. If he complies, his record gets wiped clean. The victims' families say they were never consulted about the plea deal. Both girls were willing to testify. That choice was taken from them. Butler's father is the former Director of Football Operations at Oklahoma State University. The judge who granted youthful offender status holds two degrees from OSU. No direct impropriety has been proven — but the families and protesters are demanding answers. "Community service for this type of crime, that's nothing," one victim's father told Nightline. "People get that for minor crimes." State Rep. J.J. Humphrey is calling for a grand jury investigation. Protesters have surrounded the courthouse at every hearing. And the parents have one message for America: "Love shouldn't hurt."
